FIRST LOOK

The Fujifilm 50-140 LM OIS WR- a first look at thistonybridge: “Focus is superfast, on par with any of the Big Boys’ 70-200/2.8 RPGs. I borrowed a friend’s 80-200/2.8l Red Ring to compare. Yep. Just as fast. Sports togs can now compete.”

It seems that the waiting is almost over for the Nissin i40 flash. The company just added the Fujifilm version to their compatibility chart here. Also, Fuji-X users can download and read the manual here (select the German or Chinese manual here).

The anonymous souce, who passed me the link (thanks) also said that the Nissin i40 will start shipping as soon as next week. However, the source didn’t specify in which country. I don’t think it will be already shipping to USA and Europe next week.

Also the site Dicahub (translation) got information about the Nissin i40, see the screenshot from Dicahab down below. They say that it should be released in Japan by the end of November. Black dot: confirmed to be compatibility. Gray dot: to be confirmed.
