Fujifilm X-H1: Dual IBIS + OIS Combo Now Working Together!

Share

Fujifilm X-H1 Dual IS

Back in October, I told you that “currently” the OIS and IBIS on the Fujifilm X-H1 do not work together.

However, I also told you that this could be related only to the current firmware and that maybe Fujifilm might be able to implement this feature in future.

And here is today’s good rumor:

I hear that Fujifilm worked on it and that OIS and IBIS now work together. Just in time for the official Fujifilm X-H1 announcement on February 15.

Now, I have no idea about the detailed way it works and if there are still some limitations of some kind. For this, we will have to wait February 15, when the Fujifilm X-H1 will be announced and we will know everything in detail.

But it’s good to know that you will be able to use both, OIS and IBIS, together.

I have my live blogging kit ready… make sure to join us on FujiRumors for the big live blogging on February 15.

What About Sensor Shift Multishot?

Back in September, I told you that the Fujifilm X-H1 will not have the sensor shift multishot feature.

On this front I have not heard anything new, so I guess that at launch it won’t have this feature. But also in this case, maybe Fujifilm will figure it out right in time.

It’s coming… stay tuned on FujiRumors via Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter

About my New Fujifilm X-E3 and About JPEG only in Full Auto Mode

Fujifilm X-E3… All Good :)

As you might know, back in December 2017 I purchased a silver X-E3 as well as two Fujinon lenses. I have explained in a first impression article why I picked the X-E3 and not the X-T20, X-T2 or even the Fujifilm X-H1. You can read it here.

I also told you, though, that I was having 2 issues with my X-E3

  • sticky joystick
  • SD-card not recognized sometimes

Of course I didn’t make a big drama out of it. I just went to my local store and asked for replacement.

Sadly, it took them almost a month to get a new X-E3, because of the holidays and also because they said the X-E3 is selling well, so Fujifilm is a bit slow in delivering and fulfilling the demand.

But now it’s here, my new Fujifilm X-E3, and this time it comes all in black.

I promised you an update, as soon as I get my new X-E3, and here it is: I am happy to report that, at least until now, everything seems to work just fine. The joystick isn’t sticky and the SD-card has, so far, always been recognized by the camera.

X-E3 Review?

I will see if I can find some time to write a comprehensive review, but time is not really what I have at the moment, since basically almost every spare minute of my life goes into FujiRumors, due to the imminent announcements of the Fujifilm X-A5 and XC15-45 on January 31 and the huge announcement of the Fujifilm X-H1 on February 15.

The weeks after that, will be even more busy, in order to cover properly all the Fujifilm X-H1 news and reviews here on FujiRumors.

But I’m excited by the good stuff coming from Fujifilm, so I’m 100% motivated to give you guys the best Fujifilm coverage in the known universe ;) .

Auto Geotagging

The review might come later… but for now…

… I have written a detailed article about one of the new features of the Fujifilm X-E3, the auto-geotagging.

I have received great feedback about it and many readers told me it helped them to make it work not only properly, but also quickly. Feel free to read it here.

I switched from Nikon to Fujifilm in late 2014 and haven’t looked back since. Love the performance, look and feel of the Fuji cameras/glasses, the excellent JPEG handling with beautiful colors and film simulations and of course, the Kaizen updates. For a few years now I have photographed music in terms of performances, shows and concerts. The Fujisystem suits my needs for this very well and it’s a joy to use!

The current lenses works great but…
