Fujifilm just registered one more camera, the FF 180004, that has the same radio parts of the Fujifilm X-H1 and X-E3 (registration here – via nokishita)
So we now have three unreleased cameras registered, that should be announced by the end of this summer:
FF 180002: Camera similar in size to Fujifilm X70. Very likely the Fujifilm XF10. To be announced July 5.
FF 180003: Camera with bluetooth version 4.2. We reported here.
FF 180004: Camera with radio parts like Fujifilm X-H1 and X-E3.
The two registered cameras could be Fujifilm GFX 50R and Fujifilm X-T3.
Nokishita does not say for which camera it is, but in combination with today’s rumor about the improved battery performance on the X-T3, the BC-W126S could indeed be the better battery for the Fujifilm X-T3.
If our assumption is correct, then the fact that it is called still “W126S” could mean that the Fujifilm X-T3 will still be compatible with the NP-W126S batteries. However, it could also be a bigger battery. I will verify it now.
So the current rumored Fujifilm X-T3 specs are:
announcement around photokina (end of September) or shortly before
no IBIS
26MP APS-C X-Trans sensor
stacked sensor (this one take with a grain of salt for now)
new X-Processor
better battery performance
touch screen

Yes I know, here on FujiRumors we already told you about the Fujifilm XF10, a camera, similar in size to the X70, and yet it can’t be considered an XF10 successor, because it has no X-Trans sensor and especially because it has not a Selfie Screen.
Considering the XF10 without Selfie screen a successor to the X70 would be like considering the X-Pro3 without hybrid viewfinder a successor to the X-Pro2.
And indeed, the fact that Fujifilm decided to give the camera an all new name and not X70s or X80, is indication that Fujifilm itself won’t market it as a real X70 successor.
I am sorry guys… for as much love I have for Fujifilm, I simply can’t understand this camera.
And since I am not at all part of Fuji’s marketing machine, but I write what I want when I want with the same freedom of when I started this blog 6+ years ago, I will use my freedom to criticise the XF10.
However, even though I am on holidays, I will live blog on July 5th to cover the Fujifilm XF10 launch.
Fujifilm X80
The only worthy successor to the X70 should be called X70s or X80.
At this stage, I have no information if Fujifilm has plans to make an X80 or not. But there are people, who certainly hope it will see the light of the day, such as Kevin Mullins.
After seriously damaging his Fujifilm X70, a camera that Kevin Mullins really likes and uses also for his pro work at weddings, Kevin started crossing his fingers for an X80.
He shared a video on his youtube channel here explaining why he needs an X80 and what improvements he would like to see over the X70, as well as a blog post at f.16 click, where he shares lots of beautiful images taken with his X70.
Of course Kevin needs the selfie screen, actually he even wants a fully articulating one.
Kevin Mullins shared another X70 video here: People Watching at Cheltenham Races 2018 with my Fuji X70
Self Scratched X70
And while Kevin Mullins accidentally damaged his X70, there are people out there, who like the extra vintage look of scratched X70 and intentionally damage their X70, such as FujiGlitch at our forum here.
