There is always the 100% anonymous Signal option. This way you are anonymous, but at the same time we can chat and exchange information and also see what to share and how to share it. But also using rumor box is fine and highly appreciated. Thanks for the help. :)

Fujifilm X-E5 – This is When it Will Be Announced!

It is a vibrant excitement and a vivid joy that I come to you to announce you when Fujifilm’s masterpiece, the Fujifilm X-E5, will be announced.

In fact, according to our trusted sources, the Fujifilm X-E5 will be announced in June.

The Fujifilm X-E4 will go down as the most epic failure of Fujifilm. Not because nobody wanted it. On the contrary, lots of people wanted one, but Fujifilm totally failed to deliver, so much so that they discontinued the X-E4 even before they where able to ship out all pre-ordered cameras.

The obvious consequence: second hand price for X-E4 skyrocketed to a price higher than the original launch price.

I hope Fujifilm has learned the lesson.

I hope they understood that the demand for the Fujifilm X-E5 will be huge.

And I hope they will have prepared accordingly.
