Profoto A1 Release Delayed… and Godox Makes Fuji X and GFX Shooters Happy :)

Profoto Delay

Back in mid-September, Profoto announced the Profoto A1 studio light.

Just a few days later, here on FujiRumors we broke the news, that the Profoto A1 will come also for Fujifilm. Profoto’s plan was to release the Canon/Nikon version in late November, and the Sony/Fuji version following later on.

The good news: Profoto A1 pre-orders seem to be strong

The bad news: according to Profoto, pre-orders are so high, that the release for Canon/Nikon version has been delayed from late November 2017 to late January 2018 (via dc-watch). I hope this does not mean also the Fuji version will be delayed, too.

Profoto A1: Adorama, BHphoto, AmazonUS

Godox

And while Profoto, Elinchrom & Co sleep, the Godox system is filling the flash-gap and rapidly becoming the favorite flash system amongst Fuji shooters.

The Godox price/value equation is simply unbeatable… and now, until November 30, it’s even more discounted:

Godox X1T-F controller (save 5%): BHphoto, Adorama
Godox TT350F (save 5%) : BHphoto, Adorama
Godox TT685F (save 10%): BHphoto, Adorama, AmazonUS
Godox V860IIF (save 10%): BHphoto, Adorama
Godox AD200 + X1T-F Trigger (save 6%): BHphoto

Top Fujifilm Product 2017 – VOTE NOW

Fujifilm Reads You!
See the original FujiRumors Poll, that Fujfiilm used in an official presentation to the Press

Top Fujifilm Product 2017

Ok guys…

I don’t think Fujifilm has something significant to launch still in 2017, so it’s a good moment to ask you, what was the most exciting Fujifilm product of 2017 according to you.

Last year, we had a clear winner, the currently discounted Fujifilm X-T2, with 46% of your preferences. I’m curious to see if also this year the results will be so clear.

I will include again the Fujifilm GFX 50S in the poll, because the official announcement with final specs and price took place only in January 2017.

I will not include the graphite X-T2 and graphite X-Pro2 + XF23mmF2 that have been announced at the beginning of January 2017. Also not included are the Instax Square SQ10 Hybrid camera (currently discounted for Black Friday) and the Instax Share SP-3 Square printer, as well as Fujifilm’s Kaizen firmware udpates.

And remember… not only the very Top Fujifilm Managers officially “Love” Fujirumors, but FujiRumors is by very far Fujifilm’s Nr.1 resource for online feedback*, thanks to your terrific participation.

It goes so far, that Fujifilm even displays our polls in internal meetings. Looks like they simply can’t ignore a community that is able to drop 11,000 votes in a single poll within 2 days ;).

So time for you to let Fujifilm know what you particulary liked this year… and keep up being so active and constructive here on FR, so that Fujifilm will keep up reading this blog and your comments/feedback also in 2018 ;) .

* It was your feedback and negative poll results, that killed the monochrome X-Pro1 and your positive pressure that revived the X-E3 plans and made Fujifilm say here “we are aware of the many X-E3 request”.

Cover Stories

Recently I reached out to another website and asked them if they could kindly quote FujiRumors, when they report about rumors they read on FujiRumors and share on their website.

The website said they won’t quote FujiRumors, because linking to other sites is not good for google SEO search engine results.

Well guys, this is not my philisophy. To me, the community and the best possible service to you comes first of all. This is why I will keep up making miXed zones, which not only cost me a TON of time, but also influence negatively my Google search results.

But I frankly don’t care. I keep up running FujiRumors with the same spirit of the very first day, when I had almost no readers. It’s about people, like me, who have fun with Fuji cameras, and it’s about sharing your work and Fuji love here on FujiRumors, giving you the visibility you deserve.

So don’t worry… may my google search results go to the cellar, I don’t care. Everything I care of is the community… so keep up sharing with me… you will be featured on FujiRumors :)

So here is another miXed zone :)
