Italian photographer Roberto owned Fujifilm X series gear, but at some point followed the siren songs of full frame Sony.
Now, after using Sony for a while, he switched back to Fujifilm.
In his (Italian) video he explains why.
But don’t worry, you are lucky that FujiRumors is a polyglot (I speak 4 languages), so I am going to translate it for you ;).
As you know, I have been to photokina twice (2016 report here – 2018 report here).
Both times it was fantastic, just for the sheer magnitude of the event.
But then, in my opinion, Photokina did an error: they dropped their 2 years cycle and decided to take place every year in May.
I did predict: Photokina will become a smaller regional show!
Oh boy, I wish I wouldn’t have said that, as I got heavily attacked for it. Apparently some thought the brand “photokina” was too big, that no company would ever skip it, and they will continue to time their biggest releases according to Photokina.
Well, turns out that even FujiRumors can be right now and then. ;)
Olympus, Nikon and even the German “home company” Leica dropped Photokina already, as we reported here.
There was no mention about Fujifilm, not even in the most recent Photokina press release here, where the heads of Photokina traveled to Japan to meet several camera companies.
So I asked around for clarification, and I have been told that Fujifilm will NOT be at Photokina 2020.
A pity!
Well, at least I won’t make errors like these anymore (or desperate things like this) once I go back teaching after 2 days of Photokina :).

As you can see from our Fujifilm camera release timeline, Fujifilm usually released a new X100 camera every two years, but this time, they waited unusually long, and we gave you 3½ reasons why Fujifilm is wating so long.
But at some point, it had to happen, and now I can tell you when.
The Fujifilm X100V will see the light of the day in February 2020.
Moreover, our sources tell us that the price should be around $1,500, but that’s just the current estimate. However, in terms of price, things can change from here until launch, but right now Fujifilm is gravitating towards this price tag.
