1934 Fujifilm Logo Stickers, Hot Shoes and Shutter Buttons

Share

When Fujifilm launched the X100VI, they also offered a limited edition X100VI at a premium price.

Yep, that version that later on some people tried to resell on eBay for a humble 18,000 Dollar.

The camera was basically identical to the regular X100VI, except for the fact that there were only 1934 units made and each got its unique number printed next to the hot shoe (plus freebies like a strap, etc).

Besides the unique numbering, the only way to distinguish the classic X100VI from the limited number one, is the special original Fujifilm logo engraved on the camera and on the lens cap.

Well, if you like the idea of having the old Fujifilm logo on your camera, you don’t really have to buy an overpriced second hand limited edition X100VI.

In fact, there are plenty of ultra-affordable stickers and hot shoes. So here are a few options.

Most of them are made by MakeAndModifyDesigns*, who writes “These are not printed paper stickers: these are the original 1934 Fujifilm logo laser engraved from a brushed silver foil normally used for industrial applications. Water proof, extremely durable, and precision cut to fit the X100V lens cap”

*FujiRumors has no connection with MakeAndModifyDesigns. They did not contact me asking to be featured nor is FR affiliated with them. I just know about them because a member of the X100 Facebook group shared it in the group. If anybody of you has one of these accessories already, feel free to drop your impressions in the comments below.

Viltrox 135mm f/1.8 LAB – Fujifilm X Mount Version Coming too?

Share

We reported how on social media Viltrox wrote that the Viltrox 135mm f/1.8 LAB version will come soon also for Fujifilm X mount.

Shortly after, though, Viltrox said that they have no plans for such a lens.

Well, just to add more confusion, Viltrox has in the last few weeks stated twice on their social media that the Fujifilm X mount version is coming in 2025, as you can see from the screenshots above.

The summary: Viltrox says the X mount version is coming in 2025 even if they have no plans for it :).

TTArtisan AF 23mm f/1.8 Coming Soon

Share

We have received information (THANKS), that the TTArtisan AF 23mm f/1.8 is coming.

The rumor comes from a trusted source.

At this point I don’t have any additional info, but we remind you that recently TTArtisan launched the TTArtisan AF 35mm f/1.8 II and I would not be surprised if the 23/1.8 would follow the same design concept of the 35mmF1.8 but also the TTArtisan AF 56mm F1.8 (compact but no aperture ring).

But again, that’s a mere speculation of mine (the greyed-out lens you see above is the TTArtisan 56mm). So don’t crucify me if it comes with an aperture ring just like the TTArtisan 27mm f/2.8. On the contrary, rejoice about the fact that my speculation was wrong.

Fujifilm GFX100RF: Crop Zoom Lever Additional Information

Share

We recently reported that the Fujifilm GFX100RF will have a “crop zoom lever” under the shutter button.

At that time when I received the rumor, I did not exactly know what “under” means, so I did a random GFX100RF rendering with a huge lever integrated in the shutter button mechanism.

But thanks to sources (THANKS!!), we can now be more specific about it.

The crop zoom lever sits below the shutter button and below the command dial (and is not an integrated part of the shutter as my mock-up showed).

So you have the classic shutter button with ON/OFF switch, under that the command dial, and under that the Crop lever.

I hope this clarifies the location of the lever and I apologize if my random rendering created a misunderstanding. But just as you, I have no clue how this camera looks like and I am putting puzzle pieces together along with you.

Thanks again to sources!
