The Fujifilm X-H1 is back in stock at BHphoto for $1,099 with battery grip and 3 batteries.
The camera is discontinued and these might as well be the last new samples you’ll be able to get.
Today only, you can save big on SanDisk and Western Digital Storage media at AmazonUS here.
I have received word from our sources (thanks), that Fujifilm will drop the Fujifilm X-E line.
As you know, I am huge Fujifilm X-E line fan. I love its compactness, I love its performance, I love its form factor and its simplicity.
So this rumor hits me very strong.
However, the X-E line was always on the fence to be canceled, as sales were always low.
In fact, already after the Fujifilm X-E2s failure, Fujifilm considered dropping the line altogether. Which is why back in 2016 I wrote straight out of my heart a “love letter to the unborn X-E3“, followed by almost 200 comments of you guys, supporting me.
My hope was that the love letter (and you feedback) would help Fujifilm to continue to believe in this line, and it seems it worked, as Fujifilm managers said half a year later, they are “aware of the many X-E3 requests.”
So we got it, the Fujifilm X-E3 came, and of course I bought it, along with the XF27mm f/2.8, the perfect lens for this camera.
But here we are again. And this time it looks really like the dead-end street for the Fujifilm X-E line.
Maybe many of you will agree with Fuji’s decision. Maybe you will think Fujifilm has to simplify and streamline its line-up. And maybe it “rationally” makes sense to drop the X-E line.
But as a huge X-E line lover myself, I can’t look at this rumor rationally, and I am just disappointed about it.
Let us know in the survey below, if you think it makes sense to drop the X-E line. Who knows if we can change Fuji’s mind again.
NOTE: the Fujifilm X-E3 is already discontinued, but as of now you can still find it in stock.
Is the X-H line also dead?
Well, as FujiRumors always told you, at no point in time, Fujifilm was considering to drop the X-H line. Those rumors were always fake, as the Fujifilm X-H2 was always on the roadmap, and now Fujifilm confirmed it themselves for the second time.

I have been contacted by Oliver from Pergear and main distributor of Zeapon, Viltrox, Godox, ZhiYun, FeiYu, Hohem, etc.
He informed me they launched the Pergear 25mm f/1.8 lens for Fujifilm X Mount.
The lens is now available at Amazon here.
This lens looks very similar to the Meike 25mm F/1.8 and Brightin Star 25mm F1.8.
I asked Oliver is this is just a rebranded version, and I will update this post as soon as I get reply.
UPDATE (thanks Mistral): The 7Artisans 25mm f/1.8, Meika MK 25mm f/1.8 and Brightin Star 25mm f/1.8 include 7 elements in 5 groups. This Pergear 25mm f/1.8 includes 5 elements in 3 groups. It’s a different lens.
February was an extremely busy month.
With 108 articles published in 29 days, you might have missed some here and there, so here are the top articles shared in February.
On the 11th position, but worth the mention here, is the Fujifilm X Summit live stream article.
I hope you had a good time in February.
And I have the feeling that March could be exciting, too, because we might have to talk about some important decisions Fujifilm is making.
