Fujifilm GFX Roundup

I know, here on FujiRumors we were the first to report about potential quality issues on the Fujifilm GFX lenses, also thanks to the feedback from out Fujifilm GFX facebook community.

However, while the reports are out there, and we reported about them, there are also many, who do not have any kind of issue, and they keep up sharing fantastic work every minute at our GFX group… non stop!

It is my pleasure to invest a few hours today, to go through the latest images, pick out the most liked ones for you and make a blog post out of them. All this beauty has to be shared :)

But before we share the images, here are a few links, reviews and more, that you might be interested to check out.

TESTED: Fujifilm Real Time Geotagging via Bluetooth. Quick Guide and Some Tips + Auto Image Transfer

Fujifilm Auto Geotagging

Back in October, I told you that Fujifilm will release a new firmware update for real-time geotagging within 2017. Well I was wrong… it came 15 days later ;) .

The bluetooth on the X-E3 is one of the reasons I went for the X-E3 instead of any other Fujifilm camera. I really want auto-geotagging, and I knew Fujifilm’s Kaizen approach will bring it to my X-E3 one day. And now it’s here. And I’m super-happy!

I have immediately tested the new geotagging and first feedback is… it just works fine :)

But there are some settings and a few things you want to make sure to check out to make it work properly. So here is a little guide and some tips.

Follow these steps to avoid bad surprises ;)

Meike MK420-F TTL Flash for Fujifilm, One Minute Lighting Setup, 10 Lighting Tips for Portraits – Flash Roundup

Meike MK420F

Back in 2015, we already reported about the Meike MK320F flash for Fujifilm. But that’s not the only flash Meike offers for Fujifilm.

There is one, that so far passed unnoticed, but not to the eyes of FR-reader Peter here, who told us about the Meike MK420 TTL flash for Fujifilm, that has actually been released back June 2017, but since nobody reported about it, let’s catch up now here on FujiRumors. Peter writes:

“The Mk420 is a much larger flash than the Mk320. Whereas the Mk320 is a specialized flash with a really small form factor, compromising on power, zoom and swivel in favor of size and weight (it looks a bit like just the flash head part of a speedlite without the body), the Mk420 looks more like a traditional flash. If the measurements on the internet are correct, the size is somewhere between the Godox TT350F and the Yongnuo YN560 series.”

Here are the main specs of the Meike MK420-F via AmazonUS:

  • High GN:42 (ISO100 ,105mm)
  • Flash mode: TTL M S1 S2
  • Equipped with longlife lithium battery:one-key operation to install or unstall; Battery flashes:300-2500 times
  • Vertical Rotation Angle: -7-90 degrees; Horizontal Rotation Angle: 0-180 degrees
  • LED-Assistive preview focus;Memory function;Temperature detection automatically

You can purchas the Meike MK420F for Fujifilm at AmazonUS, AmazonDE, AmazonUK
