Fujifilm X-T30 III or X-T40 Coming in 2025 – Let the Specs Speculation Begin

We told you that in 2025 Fujifilm will launch the successor to the Fujifilm X-T30II (which is not the Fujifilm X-T50).

Now all we can do is to speculate about the specs.

If I should bet (this is a speculation, not a rumor), then I’d say that Fujifilm could put the trusted 26MP sensor in the Fujifilm X-T30II successor, maybe in combination with the X Processor 5, just like it is for the Fujifilm X-S20.

Maybe to make it even more affordable, they could give it to us without IBIS using the same body of the X-T30II. But again, that’s just my guess. It could be also the X-T50 body with 26MP sensor. It depends on which price Fujifilm is targeting with the X-T30 II successor.

I’d prefer the X-T50 body over the X-T30II body, not only because of IBIS, but also because I prefer the film simulation dial over the drive dial. And overall I find it more refined and better looking. But let us know in the comments what you prefer.

The name?

Well, I guess it will be called Fujifilm X-T30 III or Fujifilm X-T40.

So, I’ll end my speculations here. But I’d love to read yours in the comments below.

The New Entry Level: Fujifilm X-T30 II Not Discontinued but Soon Available only with XC Lens Kit

A couple of weeks ago a source told us that the Fujifilm X-T30 II will not be discontinued after the launch of the Fujifilm X-T50 – we reported here.

Well, we got further confirmation of this today, with an additional tidbit:

The Fujifilm X-T30 II will continue to be sold as body only and with XC kit lenses. But there won’t be any XF kit lenses available anymore with the X-T30 II (… of course after the last kits with the last XF18-55mm units are sold out).

Fujifilm considers the Fujifilm X-T50 an enthusiast camera and the new entry level is the Fujfilm X-T30II.

Fujifilm X-T30II Will NOT be Discontinued after Fujifilm X-T50 Launch

According to a new source that has now been “elevated” to the level of trusted source in record times (THANKS!!!), the Fujifilm X-T30II will not be discontinued after the launch of the Fujifilm X-T50.

So both models will coexist side by side for a while.

Now, of course the day will come when the X-T30II will be discontinued. Also the X-T50 will be discontinued one day. But it won’t happen after the Fujifilm X-T50 announcement and the manufacturing of the X-T30II will continue also after the launch of the X-T50.

Fujifilm X-T3 Discontinued (but it Resisted 2+ Years After it Was Replaced by Fujifilm X-T4)

Back in September 2021, Fujifilm quietly introduced the Fujifilm X-T3 WW. The Fujifilm X-T3 “worldwide” version is an X-T3 sold without battery charger!

It was the best deal on an X-T3 you can get, but now it is starting to run out of stock forever, as for example BHphoto has marked it as discontinued.

The X-T3 was a massive hit for Fujifilm, and even though it has been replaced by the Fujifilm X-T4 in February 2020, it was able to stay on the market until now.

It’s actually incredible how long it could “resist” and keep up selling on the market despite the X-T4 with IBIS being launched 2+ years ago.

However, now it’s time also for the Fujifilm X-T3 to retire. The Fujifilm X-T4 will keep the sales for the X-T series going, at least until we get the Fujifilm X-T5.

Fujifilm X-T5 Rumors & Hints

IN STOCK CHECK

Fujinon GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 and Fujifilm X-T3WW in Stock Now

The Fujinon GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 as well as the Fujifilm X-T3 (WW) are now in stock pretty much everywhere.

The Fujinon GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 has received great reviews so far and it is the most affordable lens in the G mount lineup along with this lens. It’s also the most compact and light G mount zoom lens with less then half the weight of my Fujinon GF32-64mmF4.

The Fujifilm X-T3 WW (WorldWide) is an X-T3 without charger. By removing the charger and simplifying the shipping progress into different countries, Fujifilm is able to save some money. Savings, that Fujifilm passes to us customers by making it a terrific deal to buy.
