Fujifilm Camera Remote Ver.4.7.2 Released

Fujifilm has released ver. 4.7.2 of their Fujifilm camera remote App – iOS only!

I am not sure this new update will help the App to get better ratings on the App store.

What we need at this point is a totally new App.

But sadly after almost one years of rumors and leaks, including internal Fujifilm slides that unveil the name of a new App Fujifilm is working on, we still have to deal with the old camera remote App.

It’s kind of impressive that a huge company like Fujifilm needs years to develop a simple App that at least does not break your camera when you use it.

The Fujifilm X Dream Team: or a Fujifilm X-T5, X-H2 and X-H2S Roundup

Ah, remember the good times called “2022” when Fujifilm dropped three higher end APS-C cameras within 8 months?

Well, 2023 is still long, so let’s hope in awesome new gear to drop also this year.

But until then, let’s look back at the Fujifilm X awesomeness of 2022 and dedicate a roundup to the Fujifilm X-T5, X-H2 and X-H2s.

Disassembly – Voigtländer Nokton 23mm f/1.2

Yukosteel did it again: he disassembled precious camera gear :)

This time his victim was the Voigtländer 23mm f/1.2 Nokton for Fujifilm X Mount.

His conclusion:

I’m very impressed by the mechanics and reliable design of electronics in this Voigtlander 23mm F1.2 Nokton lens. The precise way focusing distance information is collected is one of huge benefits of true manual focusing Voigtlander lens comparing to focus-by-wire most Fujinon lens. All parts are made from metal and precisely machined up to highest Cosina quality standards similar to Leica M mount lenses.

LEAKED: This is the Sensor of the Fujifilm X-S20

Let’s talk Fujifilm X-S20.

And more precisely, let’s share the probably most important rumor I can share about it: the sensor it will have.

According to trusted sources, the Fujifilm X-S20 will feature the 26MP BSI X-Trans IV sensor, so exactly the same sensor we currently have on the Fujifilm X-T4, X-T3, X-S10 and many other Fujifilm cameras.

As an owner of the 40MP Fujifilm X-T5 sensor, my personal wish would be to see that sensor in as many future Fujifilm X series cameras as possible, but I am well aware that many of you consider the combo 26MP + X-Processor 5 to be the best option for the Fujifilm X-S20.

Why?

Well, I have written about it in depth here:

So, there are Pros and Cons in the choice Fujifilm made, which makes me definitely curious to see what the Fujifilm X-S20 will be able to deliver by using this combo.

NOTE: I don’t have rumors about the processor on the Fujifilm X-S20, but I assume it will use the X-Processor 5.

These Specs Make the Fujifilm X-T5 Great for Landscape Photography

Tips for Landscape Photography, Using the Fujifilm X-T5

 by Reza Malayeri

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the culmination of five generations of evolution in Fuji’s X-Series lineup of mirrorless cameras. Released in November 2022 — nearly a decade after the release of the original X-T1 — the X-T5 features a revolutionary 40-megapixel X-Trans 5 HR sensor, X-Processor 5 AI image processing, and a more compact version of the beloved classic X-Series camera body. This makes it an optimal choice for landscape photography.

Weighing in at just 557 grams, the Fujifilm X-T5 is a lightweight powerhouse. The combination of the smaller size, weight, and high resolution 40-megapixel sensor is a joy to use and travel with. I’ve been enjoying the convenience of shooting landscape photography with such a compact setup. I can pack the X-T5 and several Fujifilm lenses into a small backpack to create stunning high-resolution images.

Fujifilm X-T5 for Landscape Photography

Higher Resolution and Increased Dynamic Range

Fujifilm has included several improvements to the X-T5 which make it an amazing camera for landscape photography. The all-new 5th generation X-Trans 5 HR CMOS sensor features an enhanced image processing algorithm that boosts resolution, without compromising signal to noise ratio. In addition to its enhanced image processing algorithm, the X-T5 also features an improved pixel structure, which allows light to be captured more efficiently. This also enables a lower base ISO value of 125. The combination of these two technologies offers increased dynamic range and higher resolution, both of which are highly desired features for landscape photographers.

Samyang AF 75mm f/1.8 X Series Cameras Compatibility List (Not for All X Cameras)

Samyang has announced the lovely and compact Samyang AF 75mm f/1.8 X earlier today

But attention: while it is an X mount autofocus lens, it won’t work with all X series cameras.

Samyang says it is will work with X-Trans cameras, but not with Fuji’s Bayer cameras (X-T***, X-A*, X-A** lines).

But that’s not entirely correct, as not all X-Trans cameras are actually compatible. In fact, the X-Trans Fujifilm X-M1 is also not on the list of compatible cameras.

Maybe it would be more correct to say: all the cameras not made by Fujifilm (hence the ones outsourced to the Xacti Corporation), will not worked with the new Samyang.
