Now Fujifilm made it official. It is going to be discontinued within October 2018, and it won’t be sold even in larger packs. So it is good bye forever. And between October 2019 and March 2020, additional black & white photographic paper will be discontinued (screenshots below).
You better stock up now, and get the remaining ACROS 100 film at BHphoto, AmazonUS, Adorama and [shoplink 69706 ebay]your local ebay[/shoplink].

Information on black-and-white film and black-and-white photographic paper sales termination
Damien Brown was at the Fuji booth at NAB, and shared this video that shows prototypes of the Fujinon GF 1.4x Teleconverter. You can see displayed also a prototypes of the GF 250mmF4.
Here on FujiRumors, we leaked the internal GF lens roadmap (screenshot inlcuded), already back in April 2017. So far it all turned out true. To see what’s left to come, check out this post (18mm and 45mm macro extension tubes included)
And now it’s time for a Fujifilm GFX roundup, as well as a bunch of fantastic images taken by GFX shooters all over the globe and shared at our gigantic Fujifilm GFX facebook group.

I gave my 6yo my old 5d classic for our road trip last week. He took 1200 photos. I think I took almost as many of him with the camera up to his eye. #prouddaddy

Pixco is another Chinese brand, which has produced a couple of manual lenses for Fujifilm that have passed unnoticed so far. So high time to report about them here on FujiRumors first (thanks to the FR-reader for the link).
Here are the Fujifilm X-mount lenses and extension tubes they offer:
PhotonsToPhotos just published the results of their Fujifilm X-H1 dynamic range measurments. It is in line with the performance of other Fujifilm X-Trans III cameras.
Photons To Photos just published their Read Noise in DNs versus ISO setting measurment of the Fujifilm X-H1.
Almost identical results to the other Fujiiflm X-Trans III cameras. Check them out here.
Bill explains:
“The drop at ISO 800 is where dual conversion gain starts.This is a relatively common technology first proposed by Aptina in their DR-Pix Technology White Paper and was probably first used in the early Nikon 1 cameras. Dual conversion gain works by lowering Full Well Capacity (FWC) to improve read noise.Bec ause FWC is lower there is a minimum ISO setting at which you can apply the technique.”
