RUMOR: Fujifilm X100V Successor Coming with a “New” Lens in Early 2024

We already told you that the Fujifilm X100V successor will be launched in early 2024 (and ship in late 2028 probably :) ).

Well, today trusted sources have informed us that the Fujifilm X100V replacement will come with a “new lens”.

No further details for now but I am working on it and update you as soon as I can.

But I want to be clear:

“New lens” for now is a vague hint and could mean just anything: from a minor redesign that would make the lens weather sealed without the need to apply a filter (which is currently needed to seal the X100V lens) or also a redesign with different focal length/aperture [for example the patented 20mmF2 lens for X100 cameras]. Just everything is possible at this point.

So, for now “new” just means that there will be differences over the X100V lens, but how strong this difference will be I can’t tell right now.

A minor change? A substantial redesigned? I’ll make sure you’ll get the answer here on FujiRumors.

Certainly this comes surprising, as in 5 generation of the X100 line (X100, X100S, X100T, X100F, X100V), Fujifilm has refreshed the lens only once, on the last generation, the X100V. So personally I would not have expected another refresh to come that soon again. But it’s happening. Word of trusted sources.

GOLDMINE RUMOR: Fujifilm Instax Mini EVO Brown and New Instax Square Camera Coming Soon

Trusted Sources (thanks!!) have just informed us that Fujifilm is about two launch 2 new Instax Products:

This means one thing: Fujifilm keeps digging into what the Fuji CEO called their new goldmine, the photography business and especially their Instax business.

The brown camera you see in the image above shows the Fujifilm X100F brown edition. The image just serves as a reference on how I’d expect the new color to look like.

Meet My Fujifilm GFX100S: What I Love, What I Hate and My First Firmware Request

The Mountains Shall Wait

So, my Fujifilm GFX100S just arrived as well as my Fujinon GF32-64mmF4.

The original plan was to hit the mountains and go full into landscape photography mode as soon as I have my GFX gear. But my wife decided she needed to take a 3 week long intensive course in Italian language starting exactly this week, which means I basically have to stay at home to take care of my son while she studies. Unluckily not the best timing ;).

But the summer is long and I’ll get my hiking opportunities. And it never hurts to have quality time with my son, too :).

Apple Adds RAW Support for More Fujifilm Cameras Including Fujifilm X-T4 and X-S10 with MacOS Big Sur and iPadOS 14.5

FR-reader Moritz made me notice on Twitter here, that a couple of weeks ago MacOS Big Sur added uncompressed RAW support for additional Fujifilm cameras.

This means you can now edit RAW files from Fujifilm X-T4, X-S10 and more in all major image editing apps on iPad as well as apps on macOS that use the RAW engine provided by iOS (Apple Core Image RAW), such as Affinity Photo or one of my favorites, RAW Power.

Sadly not yet supported are the Fujifilm GFX100S and the original GFX100. Also the Fujifilm X-E4 is not yet included.

Down below you can find the fill list of currently supported X and GFX cameras.

Ein Beitrag geteilt von Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (@kensingtonroyal)

Once or twice a year, we like to share a little curiosity roundup, looking at famous people who shoot Fujifilm or to look at ads or movies where Fujifilm cameras pop up.

Today we have a few additions, starting with the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton, who also shoots Fujifilm, more precisely a nice silver vintage Fujifilm X-T3, as you can see on instagram here. She joins other royals like the King of Sweden.

But maybe we guys should start a gofundme campaign to buy her a new sync conncetion cover ;)

And since we talk curiosities….

The Leica Store in Germany filmed their Leica Q2 Monochrom presentation with a Fujifilm camera (see video below).
