Luminar and Fujifilm Team Up and Offer Free Photowalks all Across USA

Fujifilm and Luminar have teamed up to offer 50 free workshops all across USA.

To know more details and see the dates and cities of the photowalk, check out the dedicated Luminar Photowalk page here.

Sometimes I regret I live in a small place forgotten by the world, where such things will never happen at a reasonable distance from my home. But I guess landscape like this around my home helps to mitigate the pain for that. ;)

Anyway, I wish a great time to every single one of you who will participate to the photowalk. Have fun!

Tamron Will Launch Six Lenses in 2024, and here are the Three Patented Tamron APS-C lenses

Tamron has shared its financial result. In there, they write that they will launch six new lenses in 2024, as highlighted by SonyAlphaRumors.

And in future they might even launch 7 lenses a year.

Of course Tamron covers many mounts, so don’t expect all these lenses to come for Fujifilm.

But there are some dedicated APS-C lenses that Tamron has patented and I will share down below for you.

Feel free to let us know your favourite of the three.

Fujifilm Q3 FY2023 Financial Results: Professional Imaging Revenue Up 18.4% YoY

Fujifilm has released the financial reports for Q3 2023 (the fiscal year in Japan ends March 31).

They mention the great sales of Fujifilm X-S20, X-H2, X-H2S and X-T5, as well as strong sales of Fujifilm GFX100II.

  • Revenue increased by 13.8% year-over-year to ¥368.6 billion and operating income rose by 41.7% year-over-year to ¥88.9 billion, due to brisk sales of instant photo systems and digital cameras
  • Revenue rose due to strong sales of X-S20 launched in June 2023 and GFX100 II launched in September 2023, in addition to brisk sales of X-H2, X-H2S and X-T5 released in the previous fiscal year

Nice to see the professional imaging division growing, but I always wonder how strong it could have grown if only they would have been able to ship all the gear that was mostly so hard to find in stock.

Full report here.
