FUJIFILM X Summit Announced for May 31 at 9AM EST: Fujifilm X-H2S (but not X-H2), XF150-600mmF5.6-8 (but not 56mmF1.2II) and More

Fujifilm X Summit on May 31: Fuji’s official teaser does not display the X-H2S, but FR added it because we are sure it will come

For FujiRumors readers this does not come surprising, as we told you already on April 15 that Fujifilm will have an X summit on May 31.

Well, now Fujifilm has made it official and unveiled to the world that the Fujifilm X Summit will be held on May 31 at:

  • 9AM New York Time
  • 3PM Berlin Time

No further details, but thanks to FujiRumors we have a list of gear Fujifilm plans to launch in 2022.

What will surely come is the Fujifilm X-H2S, and very likely also the Fujinon XF150-600mmF5.6-8, as this is just the perfect companion for the ultra fast 26MP stacked sensor Fujifilm X-H2S.

What will NOT be fully announced are the high resolution Fujifilm X-H2 (it will come later), the XF56mmF1.2II and maybe also other gear in the list below.

And of course, X summits often include some surprises that have never been rumored before, and Fujifilm also likes to show mock-ups of upcoming gear on such events.

So definitely stay tuned on FujiRumors, where we will have a massive live blog with LIVE STREAM INCLUDED!

RUMOR: Fujinon XF56mm f/1.2 MKII will NOT Be Announced on May 31 (but I confirm it’s Coming in 2022)

We know thanks to our sources that the big Fujifilm X summit will take place on May 31.

And we also made a list of gear that is rumored or also pre-announced to come in 2022:

However, we also told you that we don’t know if all of it will be announced on May 31.

In fact, we told you that for sure we won’t get the high resolution Fujifilm X-H2, as the announcement for that one is expected after the one of the Fujifilm X-H2S.

We now can also strike the Fujifilm XF56mm f/1.2 MKII from the X summit on May 31 list, as the announcement will happen later (we confirm it will happen in 2022).

I want to be clear….

What I am referring to is a full announcement, hence with full specs and pre-orders. That’s not going to happen for the Fujinon XF56mm f/1.2 MKII.

We have seen in past X summits that Fujifilm has shown mock-ups of future lenses and even future cameras without actually fully announcing them. So I don’t know if Fujifilm plans something like that also for the XF56mmF1.2 MKII. That would be atypical, as, looking at the past, Fujifilm usually does not tease MKII lenses, but I can’t rule out anything in this regard.

But hey, May 31 will be exciting also without the XF56/1.2MKII. So make sure to follow us on FujiRumors.

RUMOR: Fujifilm X-H2s and Fujifilm X-H2 to be Announced Separately (X-H2S coming First)

Many were wondering if the Fujifilm X-H2S and Fujifilm X-H2 high resolution would be announced together on the same day.

Well, we can now say that there will be separate announcements.

And more precisely, the first camera to come will be the Fujifilm X-H2s with its new 26MP stacked sensor.

The Fujifilm X-H2 40MP high resolution camera will follow later on (on a different day of course).

Laowa 15mm f/4.5R Zero-D Shift New Version Announced: 14 Aperture Blades and Now Native for Fujifilm G Mount

Back in 2020, Venus Optics announced the original Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D shift lens (blue ring version), which thanks to an adapter worked also on Fujfilm GFX with the ability to shift ± 8mm with no vignetting.

Now Venus Optics announced a new version, the Laowa 15mm f/4.5R Zero-D Shift (red ring version) with 14 aperture blades instead of the 5 aperture blades of its predecessor.

The good news: Laowa is now offering both the Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Shift lenses (the blue ring and the red ring versions) in native Fujifilm G mount, hence no more need to use any adapter.

EXCLUSIVE: Upcoming XF18-120mm will have Constant f/4 Aperture

Fujinon XF18-120mm f/4

Back at the Fujifilm X Summit in September 2021, Fujifilm made several announcement which included a new G mount lens roadmap as well as a new X mount lens roadmap.

The X roadmap included the XF18-120mm, which FujiRumors was able to compare in size to other Fujinon XF lenses thanks to the technical sketch Fujifilm gave us during the X summit.

The only hint Fujifilm gave us about this lens, is that it will be “great for stills and video” and that it will come in 2022.

What Fujifilm did not tell us, was how fast Fujifilm would make this lens.

Well, that mystery has now been solved by our top trusted sources, who told us that it will be a Fujinon XF18-120mm f/4 lens.

Take a deep breath guys, as you are now entering a rollercoaster of rumors ;).

Fujinon XF400mm f/4 and Fujinon XF550mm f/5.6 Patents Surfaced

There is a lack of long and fast primes in the Fujinon world. A lack on the market, but not on paper, as Fujifilm has patented a few of them:

Now we have new additions in terms of patents, as Fujifilm patented:

  • Fujinon XF400mm f/4
  • Fujinon XF550mm f/5.6

Particularly the Fujinon XF400mm f/4 seems interesting to FujiRumors readers, as it won our huge telephoto primes survey.

99% of patents remain forever on paper. But it’s good to know Fujifilm keeps looking at long prime options.

Down below you can find the details on both lenses.

If you want to, you can check out our previous “long telephoto primes” related articles.
