Firmware Details & Download Links

We reported back in July that Fringer launched the Fringer NF-FX II.

Now you can find it available at BHphoto here, Amazon USA here and your local Amazon here.

Main changes over the previous version: weather sealing and also a smaller “foot” size for better usability with vertical grips.

The Fringer NF-FX II (FR-FTX2) has been released.

The NF-FXII adapts Nikon F mount lenses to Fujifilm X mount cameras while keeping all the auto functions. Compared to the first version, the Mk II has added weather sealing and reduced the size of the ‘foot’. Now it can be used in more weather conditions and is more vertical-grip friendly.

Fringer says that the Fringer NF-FXII will soon be available at other stores like Amazon here, BHphoto here and Adorama here and you can also grab it directly at the Fringer store.

Firmware Details & Dowload Links

A few days ago Fringer released Fringer EF-FX Pro II firmware v2.40.
