Fujifilm has officially announced the next X Summit for September 12, which as usual was old news for FujiRumors readers ;).
But I have received questions at what time exactly it will take place.
Well, Fujifilm says it will happen at 5AM New York time (11AM Berlin time).
In the video below we also tell you what will come for sure, but surprises are always possible.
Fujifilm has officially announced the next Fujifilm X Summit for September 12, which is old news for FujiRumors readers because thanks to our sources we told you the date already in early July here.
Also in early July we told you what will come.
Here is what is said in the video:

David Etchells, formerly at Imaging Resource, and always highly respected for his deep technical knowledge, has now shared his talk with Fujifilm managers at the CP+ earlier this year.
As usual, David knows how to dig deep into technical details and make the right questions.
Here on FujiRumors we will provide just a short summary in bullet points for those of you who are in a hurry and want to give it a quick glance. But for the full talk you have to check out the very interesting article at petapixel.
Deep-learning based AF tracking system
Fujifilm X-T5 – 3 millimeters too much ;)
Here are the top 10 posts for July. And hold on tight, because August will be very hot ;).
As far as the videos goes, since I was on travel I’ve shared them from all over Italy

Why Fujifilm?
Why?
Why are you doing this?
There is no need for one, totally wasted R&D.
These lenses make no sense!
That’s how some of the comments sounded on my various platforms after I have published the latest patents of the XF56mmF1.7 and re-designed XF18mmF1.4.
And these comments came after I warned you in the article that in 11+ years of blogging I have never seen a patent actually become a real product.
And despite my repeated warnings, some people keep taking those patents as an indication of what’s really coming next from Fujifilm.
But if it was really like this… I mean, if patents would really show us the way that Fujifilm is taking, then where are:
So, even though I feel a bit like Don Quixote fighting the windmills, I will give it another try today.
But I’ll take a different approach this time.
Because, well aware that a good number of people don’t go beyond the headline, I decided to create a headline that shows how absurd it is to put any trust in these patents. And hopefully, this will motivate people to look deeper into this subject.
And how do we look deeper into it?
Well, in this article we look at the 67 patents FujiRumors has shared starting from our first one posted back in 2012 until the latest one here.
Give them a look, and then make up your own mind if you should take patents as solid indications of future products.
Here is a little story for all those, who keep repeating the mantra that you need Full Frame cameras to get professional work done.
The official images of the blockbuster movie Oppenheimer have been taken with the following Fujifilm X series gear by the photographer Melinda Sue Gordon.
That’s according to Fujifilm Ukraine’s post on Instagram, which you can see down below.
And that’s not a surprise, as Melinda also took the backstage images of another Nolan blockbuster, Dunkirk, with Fujifilm X gear. In that case the camera used was the Fujifilm X-Pro2.
And keep in mind Melinda is doing this professional work with a camera, the X-H1, which according to the competent testing of photography master Jared Polin does not even allow you to move the focus point with the joystick. Yep, the same camera that snapped the top winning award at the World Press Photo.
So will this finally end the debate if you need Full Frame for professional work?
Certainly not. The internet world lives in a bubble created by influencers that not even reality is capable of bringing to reason.
And yet, the reality looks like this:
Not enough?

Amazon AUSWe told you yesterday that you should not expect the Fujifilm X100V replacement to come in 2023, hence it is not one of the two registered Fujifilm cameras (FF230001and FF230002).
Today we confirm it and we have received permission from sources to tell you this:
The Fujifilm X100V replacement will be announced in early 2024!
FujiRumors broke the rumors:
But we also know one more thing. Fujifilm two registrations filed so far: the Fujifilm FF230001 and FF230002.
Now, assuming that one of the two will be the Fujifilm GFX100 replacement, this leaves all possible options open for the second one.
Well, not really all options. I mean, I simply can’t see a Fujifilm X-H3 or Fujifilm X-H3s coming in September, as those cameras are hardly 1 year old (or less). And also not the Fujifilm X-T6 or Fujifilm X-S30.
But other than that, we can hope for:
And in fact, I asked you to vote on which camera you’d like to get on September 12 and you can see the results here.
At this point you’ve noticed something: there is no Fujifilm X100V successor (X200, X100VI, X100 whatever it will be called) in the list.
Why?
Well, because despite being one of your top wished cameras (second only to another camera), and despite fake rumors already being shared about the X100V to come on September 12, I can now tell you with 110% certainty that there will not be any Fujifilm X100V replacement coming in 2023.
Trust me on this guys. No X100V successor in 2023.
I guess Fujifilm has no hurry at all to come out with a successor, given the fact, explained by Fujifilm managers, that if the world would stop to order X100V today, it would still take them 3 months to be able to ship all X100V orders placed until yesterday.
Seen from this perspective, the biggest problem of the Fujifilm X100VI (or whatever) is the terrific success of the X100V.
“I feel lucky and will click the links to see if the X100V is in stock” :)

I get many emails from FR-readers with wishes about all possible things regarding the Fujifilm system.
Today I decided to catch up with and share some of those wishes.
This time we don’t share camera related wishes, but only lens, firmware and more, as otherwise there would be simply just too much to cover and discuss at once. An additional wishlist roundup with even more wishes will follow later on.
So, we just leaked the date of the next Fujifilm X Summit, which will happen on September 12.
Now I am curious to know what you guys are hoping for to come.
That’s why I have now launched a survey that includes plausible, less plausible and borderline impossible options.
I’ll not include 110% impossible cameras, which would be for example a Fujifilm X-H3 or Fujifilm X-H3s, as those cameras are hardly 1 year old (or less). Or the Fujifilm X-T6 or Fujifilm X-S30.
What we will inlcude are the Fujifilm X-T5s (X-T5 with 26MP stacked sensor of X-H2S), Fujifilm X-Pro4, Fujifilm X-E5, Fujifilm X-T40, Fujifilm X100V successor (X200, X100VI, X100 whatever), Fujifilm X80, Fujifilm XF20, Fujifilm X-T300, Fujifilm X-A8, Fujifilm X-A30, Fujifilm X-M2, Fujifilm GFX100 successor, Fujifilm GFX100S successor, Fujifilm GFX50R successor and Fujifilm GFX50SII successor.
I will give you two options to vote on, because Fujifilm has so far registered two yet to be released cameras.
Have fun voting :)
