 photo asd_zps72afb70e.jpg

It’s Iridient Developer’s 10 year anniversary, and Brian decided to start a sale that runs through the end of the year! The price for the probably best X-Trans RAW conversion software is right now discounted to $69.95 (30% off). Get it here at iridientdigital.

Also Soundimageplus highly recommends Iridient to every X-shooter. Read why here. Download Iridient 3.0 beta 4 for Mac here.

I absolutely love what IR does to all my files and particularly my Fuji X images which have frustrated me over the years. My lenses look sharper, my sensors look better and over the past day I’ve processed hundreds of images using IR and have been consistently impressed with what I can achieve.”

 photo instoc_zpsd776bfc7.jpg

It’s time to make a big IN STOCK OVERVIEW today, exactly 3 months after the announcement of the XF50-140, the X100T, the 56mm f/1.2 APD and the graphite X-T1.

At the bottom, I’ve listed also some of the DEALS Fujifilm launched worldwide and that will EXPIRE SOON, from USA to Australia, from UK to Germany and Italy… and if you know some more deals, just drop them in the comments down below.

To those, who supported FR in the past, thanks a lot! Without your help I could close FR tomorrow morning.

Feel free to purchase your gear using one of the links below. No extra costs for you, but a small commission is valued back to FR. It will allow me to cover the operational costs of this blog and keep up my rumor sleuthing 365 days a year… even now that I’m in bed with high fever ;-) .

Ok, don’t blame me for another fantastic review… I just report here on Fujirumors what reviewers/photographers all over the web think about this lens.

1) This time it’s photographyblog, that published its full XF50-140 review. “Stellar IQ, quick & quite AF […] with very little hunting even in low-light, fantastic sharpness, lovely bokeh“… these are the things they really love about  “the best zoom lens that Fuji has produced so far.” (© Rico Pfirstinger. In case you missed it, read his First Look at the 50-140 f/2.8 here!”

At the end it gets 5 stars for its IQ, but overall “just” 4.5 stars. On the negative site:

– It’s the biggest and heaviest XF lens “although if you compare it [admin: camera + lens] to the Canon or Nikon equivalent, it’s about 40% lighter and smaller overall.
– “the lens barrel is mainly made of high-grade plastics, rather than being metal – still, it does at least help to keep the weight down.”
– “The tripod mount is rather awkwardly attached to the lens via two smaller captive thumsbcrews – we say awkwardly, because while removing the mount was easy, it was incredibly difficult to re-attach it again

2) Fujifilm also updated the official XF 50-140 sample page with some action shots at a motorbike race shot by Jacky Ley. See the new samples here at Fuji’s site.
