RUMOR: Fujifilm Working on a New Camera Remote App

We all complaint about it at some point. But our complains might end in a not too distant future.

In fact, a trusted source just told us that Fujifilm is working on a new camera remote App. And by “new” I don’t mean a simple and small software update, but a major change.

And while it’s OK to be cautiously optimistic, I remember the last time Fujifilm gave the App an overhaul it was actually for the worst!

In fact, it was mostly just a stylistic redesign that made things worst, as it passed from a clearly visible white background with black text to a black background with a sometimes small gray and hardly readable text. Fujifilm’s goal was clearly to annoy us even more with their App.

Let’s hope this time it will bring substantial interface improvements as well as be more feature packed.

C’mon Fuji, you can get it right!

FUJIFILM Camera Remote 4.7.1 Adds Fujifilm X-H2S Support

Fujifilm Camera Remote 4.7.1 update has been released with support for the Fujifilm X-H2S.

  • Now it supports X-H2S.
  • Bug fixes and performance improvements.
    *Above feature varies depending on the camera you use.

You can download the iOS version at the AppStore and for Android at the Google Play Store here.

I find the App useful for very basic features like transfer images on my phone or updating my camera firmware, but it remains an overall rather disappointing experience. Please Fuji, copy Panasonic!

Fujifilm House of Photography Coming to Australia

The Fujifilm House of Photography has been first launched in London here.

Apparently with big success, as Fujifilm Australia will now open its own Fujifilm House of Photography in Sydney at the 2 Park Street. The Grand Opening will be on 7th July, 2022. The dedicated website can be found here.

I hope more of these Fuji-only stores will open all over the world.

Top Gun Maverick: How Fujinon Lenses Helped to Film it without “Green Screen Nonsense”

We know that Hollywood loves Fujifilm.

Today we have a new entry on the list.

The latest Top Gun movie used a range of Fujinon cine lenses to capture acrobatic as well as low flying jets.

Claudio Miranda, ASC, the award-winning cinematographer behind “Top Gun: Maverick“, shares behind the scenes footage, stories from the set, and all the ins and outs of selecting and working with the gear used to create this history-making film.

GEAR LIST:

Camera

FUJINON Lenses:

Among the others, Claudio says.

This is not green screen nonsense. The whole point of the movie was “how much can we capture?” Top Gun is a movie about getting it in-camera. […] Some of the cameras were rigged in really impossible places. And all these things needed different kind of lens qualities.

I made a list of what can fit and have great range and still be IMAX-worthy.

Top Gun was more about long lenses, so we used the Premier 75-400mm T2.8-3.8 all over the place. […]

During the middle of the movie we actually had a chance to get a hold of the Premista 28-100mm T2.9. It was amazing. I wish we could have kept it but unfortunately it was only one in the world at the time. We loved the full frame aspect of it, it was sharp, it was straight, it was like you went to the wide end of the lens and there was no bowing, there was no barreling. One of the only full frame zooms I know that’s acutally decent enough to shoot with.

[…]

What I do love about the Fuji zooms, all of them, from the Premista to the Premiers, there is no oddball barrel distortion when you’re zooming, or there is no vignetting, there is no softening towards the edges, it’s all straight. .We just like how the Fujinon lens maintains its field of view througout  the zoom range. If you get a flare in the zoom, it does not fog the lens. It’s a beautiful zoom, the coatings are great.
