New Fujifilm patents surfaced on the web. They are for the following Fujinon lenses:
Probably just variation of patents shared in the last 10+ years, such as:
The patents have been spotted by the Japanese website asobinet.
And remember, Fujifilm has also patented this foldable smartphone, so that one has to come soon, too :).
More seriously: Fujifilm recently said they have 10 lenses currently under study. Look up at those to see a more realistic list of lenses that might come at some point.
So, we just reported that Fujifilm will launch a fixed lens Fujifilm GFX camera in 2025.
And while many might hugely rejoice at this news, others remained a bit sceptical, as you can see for example in the comments here.
Why?
Because we recently reported that Fujifilm is currently spending ZERO money and time into the development of the Fujifilm GFX100R. Which means that even if they’d start today to develop the GFX100R, we would probably not get it before 2027, since Fujifilm explained in the past they need about 2/3 years to develop a camera.
So what some now wonder is: wouldn’t it have been better to develop the GFX100R with interchangeable lenses rather than a fixed lens GFX camera?
Personally I still have to make up my mind about this one.
I mean, if I look at the X series, I simply could not imagine it without the X100 line. And why not, a fixed lens GFX version could also become an iconic and much loved line in the GFX system.
And always looking at the X series line, the X-E line sells much worse than the X100 line. If that would apply also to the GFX series, a fixed lens GFX camera would outsell the GFX100R.
So for now, from a mere business point of view, I believe Fujifilm does well to come out with a fixed lens GFX camera as soon as possible.
But at the same time, as an X-E lover (rangefinder with interchangeable lenses), I’d also love to see the GFX100R.
So my final vote?
I vote fixed lens GFX, just because I think from a business point of view it is the better choice for Fujifilm. But I hope this does not come at the expense of the GFX100R being delayed for too long or even worst, the GFX-R line being canceled.
