Ridley Scott Hires Fujifilm X-E2 for THE JOURNEY Mini Movie, Lost Fujifilm Camera Survives 3 Years in the Elements, New Fuji Podcast & More

Here are some Fujifilm weekend curiosities for you.

Ridley Scott & Fujifilm

Once again, Fujifilm won the casting ;).

The sexy looking Fujifilm X-E2 (a camera I owned, loved… and destroyed) has been chosen by Ridley Scott for his movie “the Journey“, a short movie aimed to celebrate the 35 years of Turkish airlines and the opening of the largest airport in the world in Istanbul.

And it’s not the first time, that good looking Fuji cameras are used in movies, as you can see in this fuji x forum post.

And if you follow me on youtube, you might have seen me flying back from Cambodia and watching a movie only because the X100 was the main protagonist in there ;).
