Nissin Announces New MG10 Advanced 2.4GHz Wireless TTL Strobe
New England Imaging Dist. (NEID), the North American distributor of Nissin Digital Products, in conjunction with Nissin Japan Limited, has introduced the new MG10, an advanced NAS (Nissin Air System) 2.4GHz wireless strobe for both on-camera and studio photography. This new innovative flash will be available July 2018.
Just last week we published a rumor about a “camera, similar in size to the X70” that has been registered by Fujifilm.
Everybody was expecting it to be the Fujifilm X70 successor, maybe the Fujifilm X80, but I am very sorry to disappoint you all.
The camera will be called Fujifilm XF10, and… trust me ;) … it is NOT the X70 successor.
Why?
Well, according to our sources, the Fujifilm XF10 will lack of core features of the Fujifilm X70 such as the X-Trans sensor and… the selfie screen!!!
Considering the Fujifilm XF10 without selfie screen an X70 successor would be like considering an X-Pro3 without hybrid viewfinder the successor of the X-Pro2.
When will it be announced?
I don’t know, but consider this: the Fujifilm X-T100 has been registered 1.5 months before its announcement. If we can apply the same timing also to the Fujifilm XF10, then it means it could be announced end of June or July at earliest.
Here are the rumored specs of the Fujifilm XF10 according to our sources:
Let me say it clearly: I have no information about Fujifilm planing an X70 successor (called X70s or X80). Maybe Fujifilm is working on it, maybe not.
This is why I want to write a few lines to Fujifilm, who, as we know, reads this blog and your comments.
Listen, Fujifilm,
I know that the Fujifilm X70 was a huge flop.
But while it’s true that the Fujifilm X70 didn’t get the success it deserved, I think it should at least get the successor it deserves: the Fujifilm X80.
And here is what I want for the Fujifilm X80:
So please, Fujifilm, keep up developing this line seriously and give us a worthy X70 successor called Fujifilm X80. With the improvements I mentioned above, it will sell like hot cakes.
Fujifilm just registered an unreleased camera with the code name “FF 180001”.
So what could it be?
Well, here on FujiRumors we rumored the Fujifilm X-T100 since back in September 2017 and we warned you that it will not come in the first quarter of 2018 (within March). However, the first quarter is now over, so maybe we might see in the next few months finally.
The Fujifilm X-T100 will be DSLR-styled Bayer sensor camera with EVF (similar to X-T20), and be more affordable than the current X-T20 (see all X-T100 rumors).
Another option is the X70 successor, which, as we reported here, should have a Bayer sensor, since the current 24MP X-Trans sensor (and the extra processing power required), just creates too many overheating problems in such a small camera body.
I will work on it now and give you guys an update as soon as I can.

In the meantime, read what nokishita, who spotted the registration, writes about it:
“The communication module installed in Fujifilm’s unreleased camera passed overseas certification agencies. Since it is a different radio part from X-E3 and X-H1, it is made by Zakuti just like X-A5.
The distance information to the antenna does not include a protruding part such as a penta part so much, so it will not be very helpful, but the width that will be less uneven appears to be around 121 mm.”

Communication module: TYPE 1 FJ

Host system: FF 180001
FCC material publication date: April 9, 2018
FCCID and radio parts are the same as X-A5

Ok guys…
I don’t think Fujifilm has something significant to launch still in 2017, so it’s a good moment to ask you, what was the most exciting Fujifilm product of 2017 according to you.
Last year, we had a clear winner, the currently discounted Fujifilm X-T2, with 46% of your preferences. I’m curious to see if also this year the results will be so clear.
I will include again the Fujifilm GFX 50S in the poll, because the official announcement with final specs and price took place only in January 2017.
I will not include the graphite X-T2 and graphite X-Pro2 + XF23mmF2 that have been announced at the beginning of January 2017. Also not included are the Instax Square SQ10 Hybrid camera (currently discounted for Black Friday) and the Instax Share SP-3 Square printer, as well as Fujifilm’s Kaizen firmware udpates.
And remember… not only the very Top Fujifilm Managers officially “Love” Fujirumors, but FujiRumors is by very far Fujifilm’s Nr.1 resource for online feedback*, thanks to your terrific participation.
It goes so far, that Fujifilm even displays our polls in internal meetings. Looks like they simply can’t ignore a community that is able to drop 11,000 votes in a single poll within 2 days ;).
So time for you to let Fujifilm know what you particulary liked this year… and keep up being so active and constructive here on FR, so that Fujifilm will keep up reading this blog and your comments/feedback also in 2018 ;) .

* It was your feedback and negative poll results, that killed the monochrome X-Pro1 and your positive pressure that revived the X-E3 plans and made Fujifilm say here “we are aware of the many X-E3 request”.
Pictures of and unreleased Fujifilm camera leaked online
Nokishita believes that, due to the button arrangement, it could be the Fujifilm X-A5, a camera rumored here on FujiRumors.
As we reported here, there are totally 3 cameras registered by Fujifilm and that should come next (meaning 2018). One is the Fujifilm X-T2S IBIS camera, scheduled to hit the market in the first half of 2018. The Fujifilm X-A5 is also sure to come. There is one more camera left, and it should be either the Fujifilm X-T100 or the Fujifilm X80. But remember that Fujifilm is having issues with the X80 and the whole project has been delayed.

Fujifilm registered another camera with bluetooth. This time the code name is FF170004 (WiFi only).
Just recently, they registered camera FF170003 here and other two cameras (FF170001 and FF170011) back in August.
The FF170001 was probably the Fujifilm X-E3, so we now have 3 registered Fujifilm cameras with bluetooth, that have not yet been announced.
My guess is that it could be the Fujifilm X-A5, the X-T100 and the X-T2S. The X80 is also an option, but not sure if it will sport the X-TransIII sensor, as reported here.

Time to make a summary of all the future X-series cameras that we rumored here on FujiRumors.
At the bottom you will find a poll, where you can tell us, which of the 10 rumored Fujifilm products you are looking forward the most.
DPreview just published their full Fujifilm X-E3 review here… and it gets the Gold Award. Here are the Pros and Cons:
| Pros | Cons |

And now a few more X-E3 reviews…
BEST X-E3 COMBO: Fujifilm X-E3 + XF23mmF2 for $1,149. Get it at BHphoto, AmazonUS, Adorama, Focuscamera
Fujinon XF 80mm F2.8 1:1 Macro: USA: BHphoto, Adorama, AmazonUS EU: AmazonDE, AmazonUK, WexUK, PCHstore
The Fujifilm X-A line is incredibily popular in Asia, and in some countries, like Thailand, the X-A line sells better than any other digital camera with interchangeable lenses (Canon and Nikon included).
The currently most recent iteration of this camera is the Fujifilm X-A3, announced back in August 25, 2016, with flippy screen and 24 MP ASP-C Bayer sensor with no on sensor phase detection pixels (PDAF).
Now Fujifilm is working on the Fujifilm X-A5. I don’t have the specs now, but would be nice if it would have PDAF.
The X-A5 could also be one of the 2 cameras Fujifilm registered bluetooth for (the first one is the Fujifilm X-E3).
And in case you wonder why the successor of the X-A3 is not called X-A4, keep in mind that this camera is extremely popular in Asia, where the Nr.4 brings bad luck. Just check out “tetraphobia” on wikipedia.
REMINDER: Fujifilm will have an announcement on October 25. The Fujifilm Instax SP-3 square printer will come… and who knows if there will be other surprises ;) .

UPDATE: Fujifilm changed the name from X-T2s to X-H1. All rumored specs remain the same
Hey guys… I got some details about how IBIS on the X-T2S will work (at least currently).
Unlike we see on some Olympus and Panasonic cameras, the IBIS on the X-T2S can’t be combined with the OIS. So you have to use either IBIS or OIS, but they won’t work together.
What I am trying to find out now, if this is something that could be implemented later on via Firmware update or not. But at launch, I do not expect the Fujifilm X-T2S to have the “double stabilization” feature.
I remind you that it seems that the X-T2S will also not have the sensor shift multishot feature.
