Fujifilm X-H1: EVF with 30%+ Higher Resolution than X-T2!

This has to be one of the best rumor X-mas we ever had :)

While we are waiting for our trusted Japanese source to give us the top and back sketch of the Fujifilm X-H1, we can enjoy more specs :)

Earlier today we not only shared the first accurate sketch of the X-H1, but also the full 4K video specs here.

Now it’s time to talk about the viewfinder of the Fujifilm X-H1.

There will be huge increase in resolution of over 30%! And indeed, one of my major complaints with my X-T1 is that the viewfinder is actually too big for the resolution it offers. So I am very happy to hear that finally the X-H1 EVF received the resolution boost that also the X-T1 and X-T2 would need.

A very long list of rumored specs can be found below.

Fujifilm X-H1: 4K with 1.17x Crop… and more Video Specs

One of the biggest and never answered questions until right now was: will the Fujfilm X-H1 have full sensor readout at 4K?

Well, I have to tell you, that it will have the same 1.17x crop of the Fujiflm X-T2, and since it uses the same X Processor Pro of the X-T2 (as we reported first here on FR).

The full 4K specs are: 4K, 1.17x crop, 30p, 4:2:0 8 bit 200 Mbps (the X-T2 has 100 Mbps)

Fujifilm X-H1 Rumored Specs

LEAKED: This is the Fujifilm X-H1

** Join our X-H1 facebook group **

Christmas is that time of the year, where our trusted Japanese source wants to make us all its traditional present in form of some nice leaks :) . And this time, it shared with us its self-made accurate sketch of the Fujifilm X-H1.

If you think it’s just a fake, then see how it sketched the X-Pro2 two years ago here… identical to the real thing, right?

Also in this case, that’s how the X-H1 will really look like. On the day you will see the real thing, you won’t notice any difference over this sketch… except maybe for a few almost invisible “errors” I asked the Japanese source to make, in oder to track back those site, who copycat. Changes are almost invisible, don’t worry ;)

We see:

  • the much bigger hand grip compared to the X-T2. Look basically identical to the one of the Fujifilm GFX 50S.
  • the lack of exposure compensation dial.

Top and Back?

And the back and top sketch? Wait a bit… there is a reason for the delay. Will explain later.

But don’t miss it when it goes online, and click on the “bell-icon” on the bottom right of your browser to enable browser push notifications and follow us on Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter, Instagram as well as our Fujifilm X-H1 facebook group, which is gaining hundreds of X-H1 interested people every day.

X-T2 Vs. X-H1 Size

This is a very accurate sketch, but there could millimetric proportion differences to the original, since it’s drawn by hand. And yet, I decided to match the sketch with the mount of the real X-T2, to see if it confirms that the X-H1 is bigger. A comparison that does not pretend to be 100% perfect, because it’s a sketch and also because it’s not easy to match 100% perfectly the mout size. You can try it by your own if you want and then share in the comments (with fujirumors.com watermark ;) )

But before we share the size comparison…

…. KNGO just dropped me this image from Cambodia and wanted to say a quick “Thank You” to all of you guys.

They received all $5,000 from the various charity initiatives we have made on FR such as our fair trade T-shirts and your support went 100% into free education for these kids. And I want to assure KNGO, that our support won’t end here :)

Of course, you don’t have to wait the next FR-charity action to support these kids. KNGO has a Donate Page, where you can drop a few bucks via paypal. If you were looking for a X-mas donation to make somewhere, I can warmly recommend to support KNGO.

Fujifilm X-H1 will have 5 Axis In Body Image Stabilization + 3 Way Tilt and Touch Screen of GFX

6 Months of Fujifilm X-H1 (IBIS) Rumors

Here on FujiRumors we started the Fujiflm IBIS camera rumor 6 months ago, in July 2017. And since then, the rumors just kept coming.

We have shared detailed specs, such as the Eterna film simulation, the lack of sensor shift multishot, the X-Processor Pro, the IBIS with full sensor readout, the internal F-Log and a lot more (see list below).

Until now, 99% of the rumors shared in our detailed specs list is still only rumored by FujiRumors, but I am confident that our friends at digicame-info, nokishita (who leaked the name X-H1) & Co will follow soon, and that they can confirm and integrate the rumored specs shared on FR.

Until then, I’ll do my best to share whatever I can. I admit it’s a long and hard rumor marathon, but the X-H1 is an exciting camera, so I’m highly motivated to find out and share more about it…

… and to answer 2 of your questions today :)

btw… keep up making questions. Sometimes I can forget to make specific questions to sources. So let me know in the comments what you would like me to ask, and I will see if I can find out the answer for you.

5 Axis IBIS

Some of you asked me via email if the X-H1 has 3 or 5 axis stabilization. I guess this comes because a Fuji manager said X-mount is not compatible with IBIS, so some of you are afraid it could be “only” 3 axis stabilization.

Well, the good news: it will be 5 axis in body image stabilization.

As reported earlier, it will have full sensor readout (no crop when IBIS is activated). It will lack of sensor shift and dual IS (OIS+IBIS), at least at the current firmware stage, but the IBIS only function will work just fine, don’t worry.

3 Way Tilt and Touch Screen

I received many questions via email, if the Fujifilm X-H1 will have a fully articulating screen.

Quick answer: nope! Same 3-way tilting screen of X-T2 and GFX.

It will also have a touch screen.

Fujifilm X-H1 Rumored Specs

Fujifilm Plans 10/15 more Lenses for GFX in the Next 5 Years… and Correcting More Wrong Rumors

I’m in the rumor world since many years now, and I know it’s not easy to share accurate information. It’s way more complicated than you think.

This is why I never shout “fake clickbait rumors“, when I read some wrong rumors that surface on the web.

All I do in those cases, is to correct those wrong rumors, so that you guys have an accurate idea of what Fujifilm is going to launch (or not).

And today, it’s my job to correct some wrong rumors that I think have been shared with good will, but are nevertheless wrong.

I have the choice to leave them wrong, or correct them. And I decided to correct them. With great respect to the source though, who I think shared really what it heard.

No shitstorm, no hate, just a little help to get closer to the truth (and I know that it’s not easy, believe me).

Wrong Rumor 1
 25/30 lenses for GFX in the next 5 years?

GFX lovers, don’t have too high expectations. Fujifilm will not have 25 or even 30 GF lenses in total within the next 5 years.

The current schedule is to release 2/3 GF lenses a year, so this means maximum 10 to 15 GF more lenses will be added in the next 5 years.

Add to these 10/15 lenses the current 6 GF lenses, and we will have from 16 to a maximum of 21 GF lenses 5 years from now (not bad at all!)

But the only way for Fujifilm to have a total of 30 GF lenses 5 years from now, would be to stop developling lenses for X-mount ;)

Wrong Rumor 2
 GF 80-180 ?

Sorry guys, Fujifilm has no plans for such a lens. Again, I invite you to check out this secret GF roadmap (which shows a 100-200 lens, though ;) ). There is no GF 80-180 on Fuji’s internal roadmap.

Wrong Rumor 3
 Fujifilm X-H1 will have a different processor?

Nope. It’s the same X Processor Pro used in X-T2, GFX, X-Pro2 etc. I might publish a more in-depth article later on about this. But at the end of the day there is no doubt that the X-H1 will get its power from the good old X Processor Pro.

Message to source I have corrected

I have corrected some of your rumors, and publicly on FujiRumors I can’t say more than this.

But privately and confidentially, and of course only with permission of my sources, I can give you a more in-depth and detailed insight behind the scenes of what my current Fuji long-term knowledge is and if you want we can compare our knowledge.

If you want, feel free to contact me via email creating a fake email account if you feel more comfortable.

Message to sources in general

As I said above… rumors are always complicated. So even if you think “Ah, Patrick will probably already know it”, don’t hesitate to contact me. Given the amount of fake rumors I get, even every double/triple confirmation I can get is extremely useful for me.

stay tuned… the best has yet to come :)
