Notice of FUJIFILM Application Software Used with “macOS Mojave”
September 28, 2018
To our valued customers
Thank you very much for purchasing and using our products.
We have checked the performance of our application software used with “macOS Mojave” which was newly released from Apple on Sep 25 2018. As a result, we have confirmed defect symptoms below.
Application software doesn’t start.
A camera is not recognized when the camera is connected to a PC via a USB cable.
We will fix the defects by upgrading the application software. And we plan to post the upgraded ones sequentially on our global website from the end of October 2018.
Therefore, we would appreciate it if you could understand that the application software below cannot be used until the upgrade ones are released in case you plan to upgrade to “macOS Mojave”.
We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
We already wrote a “Leaving Lightroom” article a few days ago, when Capture One announced full Fujifilm support.
Now another company is trying to convince people to leave Lightroom, and they do it in a very convincing way: by offering you the complete import of all your Lightroom editing settings.
In fact, ON1 just announced a huge update to their software ON1 Photo RAW.
Amongst the others it includes:
New Workflow for Layers
Layers will no longer be a separate module. Instead, the power of layers will be accessible within the non-destructive workflow inside of Develop and Effects.
New Lightroom Photo Settings Migration
New AI-powered algorithms will give customers the ability to transfer Lightroom edited photos, keep the non-destructive settings, and move them into ON1 Photo RAW. See the video below or here. Check it out at ON1 Photo RAW.
Photographyblog has published a bunch of hands on photos of the XF33mmF1.0, XF16-80mmF4. and XF16mmF2.8. You can check the out here and a selection down below.
Yesterday we reported about the Viltrox 85mm F1.8 autofocus lens for Fujifilm X mount.
I was intrigued by this lens, and so I went to visit Viltrox booth today at Photokina.
They told me:
available in October
cost $379 (and not $240 as reported yesterday)
no concrete plans for other Fujifilm X mount AF lenses at this stage
More info has been sent to me by a FR-reader
Internal focus
Focus ring can rotate 360 degrees
Silent stm motor
Close distance cover range (?) is 136 x 182mm
Maximum diameter (?) 80mm

They had a Fujifilm X-H1 with the Viltrox 85mm F1.8 attached to it, so I quickly played around with it.
Keep in mind that this is pre-production, and there will be autofocus improvements and bug fixes before the release. For example, I noticed that when shooting at F1.8, sometimes in playback when checking the image, the aperture showed a wrong value. Viltrox told me they are fine tuning the firmware to sort it out.
