Earlier today Fujifilm has released a major firmware updates for Fujifilm GFX100 and X-S10, and also a new firmware also for Fujifilm GFX100S.
The changes are substantial and require Fujifilm to update the owners manual for these cameras.
Down below you can find the link to the “New Features Guides” published by Fujifilm.
This is the last day to grab the discounted X and GFX gear in Europe.
Unlike in UK, in Germany, Italy and other EU countries (but not all, for example not Netherlands), Amazon is included in the “Qualifying Retailers” list when it comes to the X series deals (not GFX deals). Must be shipped and sold by Amazon (no third party).
European X Deals – ends June 30
European GFX Deals – ends June 30

Just 24 hours after the previous new firmware rollout for several cameras, Fujifilm has also released the long awaited and major firmware updates for the Fujifilm GFX100 and X-S10, as well as a new firmware for the Fujifilm GFX100S.
FujiRumors will provide all details and download links down below.
So, Fujifilm finally launched huge deals with up to $2,000 savings on X and GFX gear. You’ll find all details below.
Depending on the deal, they run either until July 11, July 25 or August 22.
But here is one recommendation I’d like to make, based also on my personal experience.
Fujifilm was upfront and already announced here delivery delays on many products due to chip shortage.
Considering that the current deals will cause a demand-boost on the below mentioned gear, if you are interested to get your gear as fast as possible, maybe it is better not to wait the last days of the deals.
It’s an error I did in fact.
I did wait the last days of the GF lens deals myself back in April, and while initially the store had the GF32-64 available, it did run out of stock during the promotional period, and now I am still waiting to get mine. I wish I’d have ordered earlier.
But hey, if you are more patient than me, then also ordering last second is a great option.

Let’s recap some if the GFX rumors we shared:
The price of the Fujifilm GFX system is really falling down rapidly, attacking full frame more aggressively than ever.
Soon Fujifilm will offer a GFX camera with a sensor 70% larger than full frame along with a kit lens capable of resolving 100+MP for a price of $4,499 when purchased in a bundle.
Given the direction Fujifilm is so quickly taking with the GFX system, I can see why they see no need to go full frame. We are really reaching a price point, where you can get a high resolution GFX camera plus a lens for a cheaper price than a 50MP full frame body only camera or at the same price of the 45MP Canon R5.
Sure, those FF cameras have other strengths, like super high frame rates and and amazing AF tracking. But if you shoot mostly in single AF and don’t do crtical wildlife or sports photography, the current GFX system is more than capable.

Ok guys, as usual, when I share a rumor, I am confident that it is correct.
But lately the world has gone crazy and behind the scenes everything changes continuously due lack of parts, cyber attacks, global pandemic, alien invasion and what not.
With that disclaimer out of the way, today I’d like to tell you that, according to our sources, the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII will hit the market with a price tag of $3,999.
If I share it now, it means I am confident that price is not so likely to change anymore. But if that should happen, I will let you know on FujiRumors.
The Fujifilm GFX50SMKII will sport the good old 50MP sensor of current GFX50 cameras, have the same form factor of the GFX100S, it will have IBIS and come in the second half of 2021 (but not on August 27).
That’s all… for now ;).

Let me clarify one thing.
I recently told you that the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII will look exactly like the Fujifilm GFX100S.
Of course, being Fujifilm’s cheapest GFX camera to date, inside some things might be different compared to the GFX100S, for example, the GFX50SMKII will use the old 50MP CDAF only sensor of the current GFX50 cameras.
But I am glad to report, that, despite being substantially cheaper than the GFX100S, and even cheaper than any current GFX50 camera, the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII will still have IBIS.
So yes, it will have IBIS inside.
Fujifilm is really getting aggressive with this camera.
Last note: I might get my GFX100S this week. But no sign of the lens I ordered. It’s since late April that they keep telling me it should come soon. Now it’s late June, and nothing.

Thanks to FujiRumors sources we know already a few things about the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII:
Now we have one more detail to share, and I think it’s an important one.
You might remember how the great guys at Nokishita spotted a registration about a camera that has “almost the size” of the Fujifilm GFX100S.
Well, our sources reached out to us, saying we should replace “almost” with “exactly“.
In fact, we received information that the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII will have the same outer shell of the Fujifilm GFX100S.
More details to follow soon on FujiRumors.

FujiRumors already told you a few months ago that Fujifilm will launch the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII in 2021.
We also told you months ago, that it will feature the very same sensor of the original GFX50S.
And now let’s move on and leak more about the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII.
According to trusted information we have received, the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII will be Fujifilm’s most affordable GFX camera ever.
This means it will be even cheaper than the currently most affordable GFX camera, the Fujifilm GFX50R, which retails at a price tag of $4,500.
That’s it for now.
