UPDATE: New Firmware for Fujifilm X-T2 (ver.1.10) on Thursday… and New Firmware for Fuji X-T1

The Fujifilm X-T2 will get a new Firmware (ver. 1.10) and it should be available for download on Thursday. Of course, keep in mind the (many) lessons we have learned from the past: last minute bugs can always happen and force Fujifilm to postpone everything.

UPDATE: As FR-readers pointed out in the comments, the Firmware will apparently make the Nissin i40 work again on the X-T2 without any need of a firmware update by Nissin. I can’t confirm this for now.

Fujifilm will also release a new Firmware for the X-T1. I’m not sure if it will come on the same day of the X-T2 Firmware and what it will about, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Fuji would give us one last nice Kaizen Firmware ;)

Fujifilm X-A10 to be Announced in November :: 16 Megapixel, No Touch Screen… and Cheap!

Fujifilm X-A10

Ok, let’s be honest… how many of us thought that, when Fujifilm announced the X-A1, this new line of X-series cameras would become extremely successful? Personally I also wouldn’t have bet much on it!

But the X-A line is a winner for Fujifilm. And as I shared in the past, a source told me that in Thailand the X-A2 is the best-selling MILC in 2015, “outselling all the Canon interchangeable lens cameras (DSLR and those EOS-M lines) combined“.

So it just makes sense for Fujifilm to continue to offer new X-A cameras. The latest one is the Fujifilm X-A3, with Selfie Touch Screen and 24MP Bayer sensor.

But apparently Fujifilm wants to offer a camera that is even cheaper than the X-A3, so they are going to launch the Fujifilm X-A10. Here are some Fujifilm X-A10 details:

  • no touch screen
  • 16 Megapixel
  • cheaper than Fujifilm X-A3
  • announcement in November

And yep… this is the “never rumored before” X-series camera that will be announced in 2016.

Fujifilm Will Announce a “Never Rumored Before” X-series Camera in 2016!

The Next Fuji X

Just recently a reliable source broke for us the news, that Fujifilm has still something in the pipeline for this year (2016).

We all started to make our guesses. Could it be the long rumored Fujifilm X-T20 or X100F? Or maybe some new colors for existing cameras, like the dark grey (graphite?) X-Pro2 or silver X-T2? Or maybe a new lens, like the XF50mm? Some also hoped to see the Fujifilm X-E3 become real.

Well, the source just dropped me one more message via rumor box and said:

  1. it will be an X-series camera
  2. this camera has never ever been rumored (and talked about) before

This is the wonderful moment, where we all can start dreaming about the camera we desire (and let Fujifilm know about – you know that they not only read us, but even share our feedback at meetings – see here).

I wish you all a GREAT day :-)

Fujifilm Will Announce One More Product in 2016 – (Source Right in the Past)

fujifilm-announcement-2016

The amazing Fujifilm year 2016 might not be over ;)

In fact, I’ve just received a hint, from a source, right it in the past (it contacts me anonymously using a nick-name), that Fujifilm is planing one more product announcement in 2016.

The source didn’t gave any other hint.

Regarding the X-series, I don’t think anything new will hit the market already in 2016. I expect the Fujifilm X-T20, dark grey (graphite?) X-Pro2, silver X-T2, X100F, XF50mm & possible surprises to be available only in 2017. But keep in mind that the source talked of “announcements“. So it’s possible that Fujifilm decided to anticipate the announcement of a certain X-related product to late 2016.

Another possibility is the official announcement of the instax square camera, that Fujifilm just started teasing on their youtube channel (see video below). However, the official instax square site says it will hit the market in spring 2017…. a bit to early for an announcement this year I think.

If there is anyone out there, who can help me to get closer to the truth regarding this announcement (or anything else), feel free to contact me at fujirumor [at] gmail [dot] com. I guarantee you will remain 100% anonymous. But if you feel more comfortable, you can create a fake email account (which will allow me to chat with you). There is also the rumor box if you want. In this case, it would be helpful if you’d give yourself a nick-name so that I can recognize you in future.

Whatever it is… don’t miss it and follow FujiRumors on Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter for real time notifications.

I wish you a great start in your new week
