A long list of “rumored” Fujifilm gear “leaked” on the web and we reported here.
I instantly warned you about a lot of inaccuracies in that list. Wrong stuff that we started to correct.
The first one to be unveiled as wrong is the Fujifilm GFX25.
Anyway, there was another piece of gear on that list, that intrigued people: the Fujinon GF14-20mm.
So let me put it this way:
The best I can say about it for now, is that none of our sources is aware of such a lens.
I don’t call it a “wrong rumor” simply because there is a difference between our sources saying something is fake (GFX25) and our sources saying they are not aware of certain gear.
But the fact that already the GFX25 rumor is wrong (and more on that list will be proven wrong), could be an indication that pretty much anything “leaked” on that list has to be taken with a grain of salt and it’s probably just a compilation of guesses and speculations wrapped into a more tasty rumor package to give it more credibility. I am NOT saying E8M made it up, it is likely that somebody else made it up and passed it to E8M, who then shared it. That’s the way guys try to convince you to publish wrong info.
Anyway, I have to be accurate when I report what our sources say. And they tell me they have no information about such a lens.
For me, this means that I have zero hopes for an eventual GF14-20 to come in 2024 and I am also not overly optimistic to see one in 2025. And if it never comes, I would not be surprised either.
If you need to go wide, your best option for a long time will be the Fujinon GF20-35mm f/4.
What will come for sure though, is what is on the roadmap: the Fujinon GF500mmF5.6 and the GF Power Zoom lens.

The Future of Fujifilm in Patents (X and GFX gear). Filtered below you find the GFX gear related patents.

On the Chinese Weibo (linked below), the patent for a third unregistered Fujifilm camera has surfaced, the FF240001.
So we are now at a total of three registered cameras that have yet to be released.
From here all possible speculations start and you can read them down below.
How do I know these are just made up speculations and not rumors?
Well, because there are so many errors I will have to correct ;). In short here are the “rumors”.
But hey, it’s online. Let’s have fun even if it’s just made up stuff :).
Fujifilm has decided to increase the rebate also on the Fujiiflm GFX50SII body and kit. You now save $1,000 (previously $800).
Just as the $1,600 rebate on the GFX100S, also this deal runs until December 31.

Fujifilm is on fire. They are preparing lots of good stuff for launch in 2024.
This means that, thanks to our awesome sources, it’s high-rumor-season here on FujiRumors.
That’s why in November lots of rumors have been shared. And more will follow. So stay tuned on FujiRumors.
Videos Filmed in:
Fujifilm has decided to extend its insane deal on the Fujifilm GFX100S until December 31.
FujiRumors told you from one of the most beautiful lakes in the Dolomites, that the Fujifilm GFX100SII is coming.
But in that video I also told you that, as an owner of GFX100S myself, for that price, with that discount, the GFX100S is still an excellent pick, even if the successor is coming.

Fujifilm UK has increased the offer on some of their current deals and you can now get some gear at an even deeper discount (end December 1st).
It is not listed under the official deals, but I notice some UK retailers are also offering the Fujifilm X-S20 with a £100 discount

One of the questions is how accurate the Fujifilm GFX100II eye autofocus is.
A kind source decided to answer this question, and passed me an internal Fujifilm slide about the Fujifilm GFX100II, which shows that, for portraits and coupled with the Fujinon GF55mm f/1.7, Fujifilm has calculated a 97% autofocus accuracy.
This is of course for portraits. We are not talking about the accuracy when tracking any athlete running at full speed or something like that.
But I guess the most realistic scenario for the combination GFX100II and GF55mmF1.7 is anyway portraits or not really fast moving subjects (people at a wedding etc).

Fujifilm USA just went totally crazy.
Until November 27 they offer terrific deals, especially on the Fujifilm GFX100S.
You now save $1,600 on the GFX100S! Being an ultra happy GFX100S owner, I’d recommend the camera even at its regular price. Now at this one I can call it a steal.
