AmazonUS says it lound and clear: The best selling Photo Prouct of this Holiday Season is the Fujfilm Instax Film!

And believe it or not, this kind of news is very important also for the X-series, because the terrific earnings Fujfilm makes with Instax Cameras are fueling the development costs of the X cameras!

That’s why Fuji keeps up releasing new Instax models, from the brand new Selfie Instax Mini 70 to the Instax Wide 300 and the Fujifilm Instax Mini 90 Neo Classic, or even the Instax Mini “Hello Kitty”. And of course the Instax SHARE Smartphone Printer SP-1.

Let’s see if in 2016 also the X-series (with the X-Pro2 and X-T2) can contribute to make some nice profits for Fuji’s imaging division.

Since Fujifilm reads FujiRumors (and your comments), loves our Polls and even uses them in official Fujifilm Press Conferences, I thought it would be great to let you vote the Black Vs. Graphite Silver X-Pro2 poll… something tells me that Fujifilm will be pretty interested in the results of this poll ;) .

P.S.: Hello Kitty X-Pro2 version needed ;)

The X-T1 firmware 4.20 had a bug. Fuji will fix it end of January. In the meantime they have prepared Firmware 4.21, whose functions are same as the previous version 4.10

“We have found a malfunction in the firmware ver.4.20 launched on December 17 2015, which rarely causes freeze when shooting in AF-C mode. So we will suspend the disclosure of this firmware right away.

We apologize for your inconvenience which this may cause.

We will post an upgraded firmware around the end of January 2016 to solve it.
As a tentative solution for customers who have upgraded their cameras to firmware ver.4.20, we have prepared the new firmware version of 4.21 whose functions are same as the previous version of 4.10. Please update your cameras to ver.4.21 to avoid the malfunction.”
