Do you remember what I told you a few weeks ago?
I told you that the leaked images of the Fujifilm GFX50SII will be the most boring ever, as it will look identical to the Fujifilm GFX100S.
Well, now nokishita spotted some images of the Fujifilm GFX50SII at a certification institute.
As I said: identical. So identical, that Fujifilm had to print “GFX50SII” on the side to make sure you won’t mix up the cameras ;).

Nokishita spotted the registration of a camera called Fujifilm GFX50SII here.
And if you read FujiRumors, you’ll already know a lot about it, including the price and when it will be announced. Down below is a rumor recap.
The leaked images? Boring. Just look at the Fujifilm GFX100S, and you have the GFX50SII. ;)

According to our sources, the Fujifilm GFX50SII will feature Fuji’s currently most modern processor, the X Processor 4.
We remind you that the original Fujifilm GFX50S uses the previous generation processor, the X Processor Pro.
That’s quite a big deal, as it will allow the Fujifilm GFX50SII to focus faster than its predecessor and also to have all the latest film simulations including the lovely Nostalgic Negative simulation.
To be clear, I doubt it will focus as fast as the Fujifilm GFX100S, as the Fujifilm GFX50SII will still feature a non BSI sensor. But the new X Processor 4 will surely be able to squeeze out all what’s left in terms of AF power from that 50 megapixel sensor.
I believe Fujifilm is about to drop a serious winner on the market.

The key features includes:
Fringer writes:
Recently we have tested and optimized Sigma 105/1.4 Art. It performs really well on GFX100s. The 44×33 medium frame sensor is fully covered without any problem. It AFs just like on a EF mount DSLR. Please see the following pictures taken by it on GFX100s and Fringer adapter.

So how the heck am I going to share this one?
I mean, worldwide chip shortage, Fujifilm announcing delays for lots of gear and unable to deliver products they announced many months ago and what not.
So telling you when the Fujifilm GFX50SII will ship is a rumor rocksolid at the moment, but at the same time don’t be mad at me when at the date I’ll give you know there will be like 3 Fujifilm GFX50SII shipping, and then yet another biblical waiting will begin for the rest of the cameras to ship.
With that disclaimer out of the way, here is the rumor:
We haven been informed, that the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII will start shipping in September.
We also confirm once again, the the announcement itself will not take place on August 27.

These are crazy firmware days, great joys thanks to massive new firmware and some worries due to faulty firmware.
So let’s talk firmware today.
One of the autofocus features where Sony and Canon are running away to the competition is “animal autofocus“.
And while it is probably not a feature that most of us would massively use, it would be definitely still nice to have.
Now, the FujiRumors community often asked me if Fujifilm plans to ever such a feature in future.
Well, let me say this first.
Among all camera manufacturers, Fujifilm was actually the very first company to offer something like that, with the Fujifilm FinePix F80EXR.
As you can read in the product description here:
For those who enjoy the company of four-legged friends, the F80EXR has Pet Detection, allowing users the ability to detect up to 10 faces of dogs or cats and automatically optimize the focus. The F80EXR is programmed to recognize 57% of the Fédération Cyno Logique Internationale (FCI) Registered Dogs, 80% of the Top 20 Dogs in the American Kennel Club (AKC) Ranking and 60% of The Cat Fancier’s Association (CFA) breeds. Pet Detection works by matching various dog or cat data of facial parts with patterns to detect the dog or cat being photographed.
So, considering that Fujifilm already had a similar feature, I am confident that they will offer that in future also on X and GFX series cameras, maybe extended to birds and other animals. Sure, it’s not a rumor, but looking at Fuji’s history makes me confident this is going to happen in future.
For more details about the Fujifilm FinePix F80EXR:

Half a year has passed.
Lots of rumors have been shared already (and many more will come ;) ).
However, there is something I never do: rank the rumors in a reliability ranking.
I hate to do that, as an anonymous rumor is not necessarily less reliable than a trusted rumor. There is much more that needs to be checked in order to determine if a rumor is reliable or not. And also, something that is rocksolid at some point, may become less sure later on as Fujifilm changes plans.
That’s why I hate to rank rumors.
However, it is something you request me to do, hence, 1 or 2 times a year I bend to your will and do just that.
So, you can find the rumor-ranking down below.
Also, we will check back and see which rumors FujiRumors got right and which wrong, so that you guys can judge my work and decide if your time on FR was well spent or not. I will be extremely brutal to myself and move in the wrong section every ever so minimal error I made, even though it was accurate at the time of sharing.
Two more things:
One last note: Back in November 2020 we shared an article, where Sigma itself teased Fujifilm X mount lenses coming 2021. And as if that was not enough, they teased them again in February 2021. In between those Sigma teasers, on December 14, 2020, FujiRumors shared a rumor that Sigma has indeed plans to release Fujifilm X mount lenses. This rumor is not included in the list below, as it from 2020. If you want to check back the 2020 rumors, make sure to read this article.
So let’s start:
