And no, the lens you see in the image above is not from the patent, but from a wildlife lens survey/article we shared in the past, were a reader made a mock-up of the lens.
A few weeks ago I told you that the anonymous contact for was broken form a few months, which means I have not received any of the rumors and news you sent me (even though you got the notification that the message has been sent).
And while the fix worked for a few days, the contact form broke again.
So we started to work on it again, and initially we were able to restore text messages and later today you should also be able to send attachments anonymously again.
Right now we have a downtime where it does not work at all (no text, no attachments), but it should all be working in a couple of hours again.
So… if you wonder why ahead of the last X summit in May we did not get any low resolution leaked images of the upcoming products, that’s very likely the reason, as usually I get those leaks via anonymous sources via rumor box.
And to be clear: this has nothing to do with safety or security issues on FujiRumors. It’s really just a matter of coding, plug-ins and server updates that kind of don’t play nice together and mess up things, which is why I now added a few paid services and new plug-ins to sort it out one by one.
Costs time, costs money, but I am confident that all will be fixed forever in the next few hours.
Sorry again for the inconvenience and for all the nice rumors and news I missed to share in these weeks and months.
Again the invitation: if you have used the rumor box between late April and now, I did not get your message, so if possible, it would be great if you could share them again
Here is a little story for all those, who keep repeating the mantra that you need Full Frame cameras to get professional work done.
The official images of the blockbuster movie Oppenheimer have been taken with the following Fujifilm X series gear by the photographer Melinda Sue Gordon.
And that’s not a surprise, as Melinda also took the backstage images of another Nolan blockbuster, Dunkirk, with Fujifilm X gear. In that case the camera used was the Fujifilm X-Pro2.
Questions, that you are free to share down below in the comments and I promise I will work on them and hopefully be able to answer soon.
One of the questions I have not yet the answer to is the name of the X100V successor.
And since I am tired to share rumors calling it the “X100V successor” I thought I’ll do it like this. I will now share a couple of naming options and you vote on the one you like most. The winning name will be used by me for all further rumors (at least until I find out the real name).
And let’s start with a feedback coming from a FR-reader via the revived rumor box.
