Fujifilm Says X-T20 is for Creative Hipsters, X-T100 of Outgoing People and X-A5 for Fashionable Women

Fujifilm Targets

For whom is the Fujifilm X-T100? What’s the target of the X-A5? And which people should pick the X-T20 over the X-T100?

Well, Fujifilm has a clear idea on this subject, as we can see from the media sheet above.

So, if you are a cool and outgoing person, you should take the X-T100 with selfie screen, if you are a creative hipster with good photography skills, then the X-T20 is the way to go, and if you are an active, fashionable woman under 30, the X-A5 is the camera you need.

That’s just a little curiosity, in case you wondered whom Fujifilm targets with their different entry and mid-range cameras.

For me this quick article is also a welcome opportunity to wish all US residents a fantastic independence day :) .

Nikon F Mount to Fujifilm GFX Smart AF Adapter Almost Here and Steelsring Smart Adapters EF/FX and EF/GFX Firmware 2.02/2.04

Nikon F to Fujifilm X Smart Adapter

Steelsring is about to release their Nikon F to Fujifilm GFX mount smart adapter. You can see the latest protoype in the image above. On their website here, they write:

Main features:

  1. Support Nikon AF-S G and E type lens, and AF-P G type lens contrast based AF in GFX 50s body.
  2. Electromagnetic diaphragm of type E Lens can be controlled by GFX 50s body, allows AF in full open ( decided by camera body ) and step down for exposure.
  3. Diaphragm of G type lens was manually controlled by aperture ring of adapter in real-time, so AF is conducted in real effective aperture as exposure. AF performance may be bad in low light/contrast, benefits are 1) Real aperture priority, 2) and totally no noise of consistent IRIS moving.
  4. Full EXIF info recording. ( For G type lens, only the current max open aperture was displayed and recorded, no way to adjust it ).
  5. Lens VR was support and effective on demand.

FX mount version adapter is in design phase, maybe with better performance of PDAF and auto aperture control version for your choice.

Note:

Support to AF-D type lens will be very limited, EXIF may works, but no AF absolutely.

Firmware Updates

Steelsring has a new firmware for the EF-FX and EF-GFX adapters.
