Why, Fujifilm? Three (Minor) Fujifilm Errors that Defy Any Explanation

We talk lots of good stuff about Fujifilm. And that’s right so, as they deserve it.

And yet, not everything Fujifilm does is right all the time.

In the past, I did run over 7 major errors Fujifilm did (or is doing) and wrote a dedicated article about it:

Today I’d like to focus on three errors that are for sure minor, but they are annoying anyway and show that sometimes Fujifilm really does not think it through.

Fujifilm Factory Tour: Meet Fujifilm’s Most Complex Gear to Manufacture and How Adjustment is Key to Image Quality

The French website Phototrend had the opportunity to visit the Fujifilm factory in Taiwa, Japan, which where many premium Fujifilm gear is made, but not only premium. For example, also Fujifim’s oldest X mount lens, the legendary Fujinon XF35mm F1.4 R is assembled here.

In this tour, Fujifilm will also tell you which is the most complex gear to manufacture. Spoiler: it’s this beast here, which consists of over 1,000 pieces!!!

There is lots of interesting stuff to read and see, but I found one sentence particularly interesting: “adjustment is the key to image quality“.

So while the assembly takes time and is indeed complex, all the micro-adjustments made during and after the assembly are crucial to ensure a consistent and high quality product.

Down is a quick summary where you can read all the details as well as some images.

Top Secret Home of FujiRumors Unveiled – You’ve Never Heard About it (But it’s BEAUTIFUL) :)

Top Secret (no more)

When I started sharing videos on YouTube, many viewers said they loved the views they were getting from my apartment and asked me to unveil the name of this beautiful town.

So today I’ll do just that: welcome to… watch the video above to find out.

And watch until the end, so you don’t get shocked by that MEGA-PINT in the thumbnail ;).

And don’t worry, that was it already… after this one, we will get back to normal rumor business as usual ;)

Best Food

And btw… after I started doing these videos, my wife kind of wanted to try out something herself. Down below are two of her cooking videos:

  1. a video where she cooks our favorite pasta with shrimp, rocket salad and lemon
  2. a video where she makes the traditional dumplings

And look, she is Vietnamese (as you know from when I told you the story of how this $3 accessory saved my Fujifilm X-T5). And we know how amazing Vietnamese food is.

So make sure to drop her a comment and ask her to make videos about Vietnamese food, too, if you want to try to cook it yourself. And of course, subscribe to know when it will go online.

Yes I know, I am blessed: I live in the country with some of the best food in Europe (Italy) and I married a woman who comes from a country with some of the best food in Asia (Vietnam).
