Notice of FUJIFILM Application Software Used with “macOS Mojave”
To our valued customers
Thank you very much for purchasing and using our products.
We have checked the performance of our application software used with “macOS Mojave” which was newly released from Apple on Sep 25 2018. As a result, we have confirmed defect symptoms below.
We will fix the defects by upgrading the application software. And we plan to post the upgraded ones sequentially on our global website from the end of October 2018.
Therefore, we would appreciate it if you could understand that the application software below cannot be used until the upgrade ones are released in case you plan to upgrade to “macOS Mojave”.
We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Yesterday we reported about the Viltrox 85mm F1.8 autofocus lens for Fujifilm X mount.
I was intrigued by this lens, and so I went to visit Viltrox booth today at Photokina.

More info has been sent to me by a FR-reader
They had a Fujifilm X-H1 with the Viltrox 85mm F1.8 attached to it, so I quickly played around with it.
Keep in mind that this is pre-production, and there will be autofocus improvements and bug fixes before the release. For example, I noticed that when shooting at F1.8, sometimes in playback when checking the image, the aperture showed a wrong value. Viltrox told me they are fine tuning the firmware to sort it out.
With that said, I made a quick auotofocus video test, using the Fujifilm X-H1 with Viltrox 85mm F1.8. You can see it here on my youtube channel.
Down below you can see also some image samples, mostly JEPGs and some RAWs to download.
