Recently our Top Trusted Japanese source said that the Fujifilm management already gave Green Light for the development of the digital interchangeable lens Medium Format Fuji camera. Moreover, a New Source told us it will be presented at Photokina 2016 (end of September).

So, according to our Japanese Source, it’s actually not true, what Fuji Manager Takeshi Ueno said: “At the moment Fuji is not planning to launch a medium format camera […] not everyone in the company is quite as convinced to make it.”

Of course you should trust our long time Top-Trusted Japanese source ;) .

Now, the Medium Format rumor is for sure very exciting, but I’m afraid that such a camera will be too expensive, at least for me. So I’ll happily stuck with my amazing APS-C cameras and phenomenal Fujinon lenses.

But what about you? Are you interested to purchase a Medium Format Fujifilm Camera with interchangeable lenses? And if yes, how much would you pay for it?

So here is the Poll… and it is for sure one of those polls, Fuji will discuss at the next management meeting ;) . So feel free to give your honest feedback and let Fuji know.

Fujifilm Financial Report Q3 says X-T10 sells Strong… but it’s Still Instax to Rule Them All!

The latest Fujifilm Report (Q3) is online:

The overall sales in the photo imaging business increased due to the strong sales of instant photo systems centering in the United States and Europe.

Though the sales volume largely decreased due to the shift to high-end models, the sales of premium digital cameras X Series centering on FUJIFILM X-T10 were strong.

In the Imaging Solutions segment, profit significantly increased, reflecting the increase of gross profits by strong sales of the photo imaging business and other  factors, while revenue decreased due to the shift to high-end models of digital cameras and others.

Special Mention again for the Instax Cameras, in particular the latest addition, the Selfie Instax Mini 70:

In the photo imaging business, the overall  sales significantly increased due to the  strong sales of instant photo systems such as instant cameras, instant films and  others centering on Europe  and the United States. Fujifilm strengthened a lineup  of instant cameras by  release of new product  “instax mini 70” in October”

Hey Fuji… just Saying… ;)

Kaizen Please

Honestly… thank you soooo much Fujifilm for your Kaizen spirit. Even the “old” X-E2 camera will get a huge update on February 4th, making it basically a complete new camera (electronic shutter, new AF-system, Interlocking of Metering and Focus areas and A LOT more).

This is unmatched by any other company, who never offered such huge FW updates or eventually charged customers extra money for the update – see Panasonic… but you, Fujfilm, give us all this for Free!!!

So while I’m aware we X-shooters are complaining at a level all other camera brands owners frankly envy us, I would just ask you, once again, not to ignore the X100S and X100T owners out there.

Let there be Kaizen also for them

with unchanged and deepest admiration for your work and your relation to your customers

Fuji X Pro 2 video quality a huge step up – hands on at eoshd : an excerpt:

I am really pleased to say the video quality of the X Pro 2 is seriously impressive. It’s not 4K but it’s enormously satisfying, sharp and detailed. […] Indeed the image is now very sharp and detailed, with moire and aliasing reduced to an absolute minimum.”
