The letter confirms, what the anonymous source told us: startig from May 1, Fuji stuff will cost more in Canada.
The anonymous source wrote:
“Various lens and body pricing will be going up effective May 1st for Fujifilm Canada. Citing fluctuation of CDN $ against the USD. Canadian customers are going to have to pay more than what they currently pay with this adjustment.“
We had such a price increase last year here in EU, so, my fellow Canadian X-shoooter friends, I know who it feels :( .
If you were lucky enough to attend the Photokina 2016 (like me), you will have noticed that the by very far busiest booth was the one of Fujifilm. So it was clear to me, that Fujifilm must have done many things right over the last year, in order to attract all these people.
So it’s not really a surprise, that the latest Fujifilm products are highly awarded. I’ve already reported how:
the Fujifilm X-T2 got the Gold Award at DPReview (story here)
14 Fujifilm products won the IF Design awards (story here)
the Fujifilm GFX got the DPReview Gold Award (story here)
the Fujifilm X100F earned the DPReview Gold Award (story here)
17 Fujifilm products won the red dot design award (story here)
the Fujifilm X-T20 got the DPReview silver award (story here)
Only the Fujifilm X-System broke the DSLR Hegemony at World Press Photo Awards (story here)
at the DPReview Awards 2016, DPReview declared the Fujifilm X-T2 and Nikon D500 “Way in Front of the Rest” (story here)
the Fujifilm X-Pro2 Best Professional CSC and XF100-400 Best CSC Zoom Lens won the EISA Awards (story here)
Well, Fujifilm now sets another record. At this years’ TIPA Awards (2017), it is the most awarded camera company out there, with a total of 5 awards for:
As usual, at such competitions, there is an award for basically every brand out there. But it might be still significant, that Fujifilm is the most awarded brand.
Nope, this is no leak or rumor. I’ve simply received a newsletter by Really Right Stuff, sharing with all subscribers the first images of several L-plates, including the ones for the Fujifilm GFX and X100F.
UPDATE: Pages now live with images
We already reported in the past that they are available for pre-order, but here are the links again:

Fujifilm GFX Roundup
The Fujifilm GFX facebook members keep up sharing awesome work at the group, including images taken with pre-production GF110mmF2 and GF23mmF4 lenses. It’s is an incredible source for all things Fujifilm GFX, and a great joy to follow.

Portrait-test with the GF120. I was absolutely confused about getting the GF120 or the new GF110, but I came to the conclusion that the 120 with it’s OIS is more useful for me. I hate tripods and the focus-distance of the 110 can be a restriction. I’ve tested it yesterday and I was able to get non-blurry captures with 1/30 (and some with 1/15) – so I can say that the OIS is amazing. This image is the result of a short studio-test. No flash was used, just modeling light!
