Tony Northrup investigated in a poll, which camera service is the best. The results:
Olympus: 90.5% satisfaction
Canon: 84.6% satisfaction
Fujifilm: 84.6% satisfaction
Nikon: 80.5% satisfaction
Sony: 70.6% satisfaction
Speaking of Fujifilm service…
I am curious to know how satisfied you are with the service in your country.
According to feedback I got so far, I have the impression that the service in UK is probably the best in the Fujifilm world. But I also hear stories that are pretty frustrating coming from other countries.
In order to let Fujifilm know, I decided to launch a poll, which might help them to see, where there is still room for improvement.
Of course I can’t include all countries, so I will select the top 10 countries amongst FujiRumors readers.
NOTE: I have just been informed that Fuji professional service (FPS) has been launched also in Australia. Register here
We already questioned a few times, if these awards make sense, by disclosing how the award business works. But for some reason many Fujifilm X and GFX still rejoice when they read about Fujifilm winning an EISA, TIPA or whatever else award.
So I don’t want to be the spoilsport here, let’s just ignore it all and rejoice once again :).
Pixel Village visited the Fujifilm factory in Japan. Above you can see the video, which I will let you start at minute 2:30 (the moment they enter the factory). Here are some info we get from the video:
70 Fujifilm GFX 50R are assembled in an 8 hour shift
the leather fixing on the Fujifilm X-H1 took the Japanese worker 1 minute and 50 seconds
you see the red badge XF lens assembly line and manual lens elements alignment
some stuff was not permitted to be filmed, such as robots putting lens mounts together
they were surprised how much technology, work and passion is behind something that we take for granted
at the end Fujifilm asked in a feedback session what they could improve in their quality standards, but it would be like if the sun would ask how to make light
Down below you can see some screenshots from the video.
