Fujifilm Japan Updates Camera Manufacturing Pages and Lists Fujifilm X-T4 as Made in China Only

Fujifilm Made In

There was some confusion lately, as we saw Fujifilm X-T4 beta samples marked as “made in Japan” and also “made in China”.

Now, I don’t know if this clarifies or further confuses things, but Fujifilm Japan updated its official “made in” pages, and the Fujifilm X-T4 is listed as made in China only.

On the other hand, Fujifilm X100V and Fujifilm X-Pro3 are listed as made in Japan.

This is the official list of Fujifilm Japan at their Q&A page.

Coronavirus: Fujifilm Resumed Operation at Chinese Digital Camera Plant, but…

The Fujifilm factory in Suzhou, China
The Fujifilm factory in Suzhou, China

Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, Fujifilm closed their factory in Suzhou, China. Now they re-opened.

Fujifilm resumed operation on February 10 at a digital camera assembly plant in Suzhou, China, which had been closed since the Lunar New Year (Chinese New Year). Toshihisa Iida, General Manager of Optics and Electronic Imaging Division)

However, we have been told (thanks) that only a very limited number of people actually went back at work, as workers are either under quarantine or travel bans (many Chinese left for the Chinese New Year at the end of January and now can’t go back to Suzhou).

Pergear 25mm F1.8 for Fujifilm X Mount

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.

  • 5 Elements in 3 Groups
  • Aperture Range: F/1.8 – F16
  • Ideal Aperture with 12 Diaphragm Blades
  • Full metal body, Compact and Lightweight, only 195g

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.
