Fujinon XF56mm f/1.2 R Discontinued at Some Stores

Some Japanese stores started to mark the Fujinon XF56mm f/1.2 as discontinued, as reported by the Japanese website asobinet.

This really does not come surprising, as last year Fujifilm has update the lens with a new, sharper and weather sealed version, the Fujinon XF56mm f/1.2 R WR.

It’s a lens that many own and I know many love. I have own myself and the fact that I am very happy with it does not really trigger my GAS for the new one.

Fujifilm X-A2 Officially Discontinued… so what About the Fuji X-A3?

Fujifilm X-A2 Discontinued

Fujifilm officially discontinued the Fujifilm X-A2 (Specs & Price).

You can still find it [shoplink 48151 ebay]available on eBay[/shoplink] and several stores, but Fuji won’t produce any new X-A2 cameras.

Considering that the Fuji X-A2 is selling very well in Asia.  IIRC a Fuji Manager statement, it’s the best selling interchangeable lens camera in some countries like Thailand. That’s why I strongly believe that there will be a Fujifilm X-A3 at some point.

A different story for the X20 and XQ2, which are also officially discontinued, but I doubt we will ever see a successor.

The Fujifilm X-A line is the most affordable MILC X-series camera line of Fujifilm and features a regular Bayer sensor, unlike most of the other X-series cameras, that feature an X-Trans sensor.
