Viltrox 23, 33 and 56mm f/1.4 Fujifilm X Mount Coming December 2019 with Seriously Aggressive Price Tag

Viltrox

FujiRumors broke the rumor about new  23, 33 and 56mm f/1.4 Viltrox lenses coming already back in May.

Since then, we all waited patiently for more details, and we got the first ones here on this FujiRumors article, as well as additional lens images in this article.

Now Viltrox displayed the lenses at the IBC 2019, adding more detailed information about price and release date – via digitalcameraworld.

All three new Viltrox lenses will be:

  • for sale in December 2019
  • priced around $250

This means it will be even cheaper than their currently only autofocus lens for Fujifilm X mount, the Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 AF.

That’s very aggressive and if they are as good value as the Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 (customer reviews on AmazonUS and on BHphoto), then our beloved Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4, XF 35mm f/1.4 and XF 56mm f/1.2 are getting some good competition.

Down below our specs shared in earlier articles, and for many images of all these lenses (included mounted on Fujifilm cameras), check out this article on FR and the images at digitalcameraworld.

LEAKED: This is the FUJIFILM X-Pro3 – Dual Screen and Button Layout (Sketches of X-Pro3 Top, Front and Backside)

Fujifilm X-Pro3

Yesterday, our top trusted Japanese source contacted me, asking if the FujiRumors community would like to get some accurate sketches of the Fujifilm X-Pro3.

I told the source that I was hiking on my mountains and enjoying some local dance tradition show with my wife, so if it maybe can do that on Monday, or I’d have to pass my whole Sunday on the computer.

So, fellow readers, I hope you can understand and apologize me for leaking 24 hours later, but now it’s Monday, and we’d like present to you…

… the Fujifilm X-Pro3! :)

The source just quickly drew the Fujifilm X-Pro3 for us now (100% pencil and paper work due to issues with its graphic drawing tablet).

The rumor storm will continue, so stay tuned on FujiRumors and…

A MUST for X-PRO Lovers

Cameralabs: Sony A6600 Review vs Fujifilm X-T3

Fujifilm X Summit
September 20 @ 9AM New York Time
LIVE STREAM and BLOG on FUJIRUMORS
Details Here

Cameralabs published it’s full Sony A6600 review, Sony new flagship APS-C camera with IBIS.

He used both new lenses on the Sony A6600, the Sony E 16-55mm F2.8 G and the Sony E 70-350mm F4.5-6.3 G OSS.

Inevitabely, he often compared the Sony A6600 to the Fujifilm X-T3.

Now, I’ll skip the parts, where Cameralabs talks only about the Sony A6600, and highlight down below only those passages, where he mentions and compares it to the Fujifilm X-T3.
