According to PR Samyang will announce soon a new 12mm f/2 lens for Micro Four Thirds, Fuji X and Samsung NX mounts. The range of lenses for Fuji X-mount is growing. Samyang is already offering the following lenses for Fuji X-Mount: [shoplink 12946 ebay]Samyang 8mm[/shoplink], [shoplink 14844 ebay]Samyang 300mm mirror lens[/shoplink], [shoplink 15934 ebay]Samyang 16mm f/2.0[/shoplink], [shoplink 15963 ebay]Samyang 24mm f/3.5 Tilt Shift[/shoplink].

X-DEALS (save up to $1,150)

Until September 21 you can profit from hughe price drops on 5 XF lenses and save up to 1,150 (almost the price you’d have to pay for the X-PRO1!)… and prepare for the day when a X-PRO2/X-E2 will be released. You’ll already own a lot of XF lenses and you’ll just have to buy the X-E2/X-PRO2 body. You could then sell your X-E1/X-PRO1 or use it as a backup camera… and in the meantime enjoy shooting with the X-series!

They will be back. As I already told you a couple of days ago, Fuji will offer instant rebates on the XF lenses. Switch to the X (X-E1 or X-PRO1) and here is what you can save (the lens-deal is stackable, so the amount of savings depends on how many lenses you purchase):

[shoplink 13829]XF 27mm[/shoplink]: save $150
[shoplink 12889]XF 35mm[/shoplink]: save $150

X-A1 leaked image: here is the source!

I’ve read with interest all your comments about the leaked X-A1 image here. Some say it’s a fake, other believe it’s true. Now, here is the whole story:

In the mid of August Keitaro (General Manager for Middle East of Fujifilm Electronic Image Decision) visited South Africa. On the 14 of August he had a meeting with Marc Sweeney. In this occasion the Fuji manager showed him the X-A1. Marc took an image of the X-A1 and shared it on his google+ profile here… and this is the image I shared with you here.

That’s all. I got the image, I got the story and I shared it with you. As the image was taken back on August 14 it’s possible that the X-A1 shown here is a dummy and not the final version.

cheers

Hot! First image of the new Fuji X-A1 X mount camera!

What you see on the picture is the soon to be announced Fuji X-A1 camera. It will be the new entry level X-mount camera. Unlike the [shoplink 13828]X-M1[/shoplink], it won’t have an X-Trans sensor (and also not the X100 sensor), will come in a lot of colours and will be sold by big retailers on the web and big general stores.

The camera should be announced very soon. Stay tuned!

They will be back: X-deals reloaded starting August 25… save up to $300!

 

 

If you plan to switch to the X but you missed the crazy X-deals in June then maybe you could soon have another chance to switch cheap to the Fuji X-system.

According to an anonymous source Fuji will launch a new deal starting August 25: you could save up to $300 on lenses when purchased with X-Pro1 or X-E1.

Stay tuned on Fujirumors that day and let’s see if the rumor is correct. As soon as the deals go live I’ll notify you also via facebook and twitter.
