I got word from trusted source, that the 2.0x Teleconverter will be officially announced in May. The informations seems to be correct, since the first official images and the estimated price have now been leaked at digicame-info.

The 2.0x was first rumored by our sources here, then officially presented at the CP+ in February.

  • Fujifilm to announce soon teleconverter XF2X TC WR. Estimated retail price is ¥ 59000 (tax included)
  • Lens Hood LH-XF23. Estimated retail price of 8600 yen (including tax).
  • Reservation of wide conversion lens WCL-X70 is also started soon.

There will be also a new lens hood for the XF23mmF1.4 lens.

RUMOR: Bug Fix Firmware for Fujifilm X-Pro2 coming!

FW

According to a trusted source (thanks for sharing), Fujifilm will release a bug fix Firmware for the X-Pro2! This Firmware comes after FW 1.01, which fixed the Reset Issue.

What will it fix? It will probably fix black frame issue (Black Frames between shots in single shot mode) and maybe some other bugs (Full list of X-Pro2 Bugs here)

When will it come? I’m not sure yet. Maybe there will be a dedicated Firmware very soon or maybe it will be bundled with the EF-X500 or 2.0x Teleconverter support Firmware later on. The latter option could allow Fujifilm to “hide” the bug-fix behind a regular support Firmware.

Good to see Fujifilm fixing these bugs… so the Fujifilm X-T2 won’t have these issues at its launch.

Fujifilm X-T1 will get One More (and Final?) Kaizen Firmware Update This Year!

asd

You can Now Write your own Articles on FujiRumors!

If there is one camera, that was massively covered by Fuji’s Kaizen Love, then it’s the Fujifilm X-T1. Let’s take a look at the major updates over the last years:

Well… it seems that Fujifilm is planing to release another FW update, that will bring a few new features. I don’t think Fuji will introduce such massive changes, that Rico has to rewrite his X-T1 book, but there should be some tweaks & new features we will all appreciate. So don’t expect gigantic changes, but it won’t be just a “bug fix/add compatibility” firmware :-)

I’ll work to find out the features… and in the meantime, tell us in the comments what you would like to have.

The bad news in all this? One source (thanks dude), said this will be the last “Kaizen Firmware” for the X-T1.

As always, when it comes to Firmware stuff, take it with a grain of salt.

MESSAGE TO THE SOURCE, who also said it will be the last Kazen FW: Thanks for sharing. If you want, contact me via email (create a fake email account if you want). We could talk and exchange some information about the other stuff ;).

have a great day,
