Peak design just updated its popular Leash camera strap and the Cuff wrist strap. Below you can find the official product presentation videos by Peak Design as well as an unboxing and hands on video.
Both straps use the 3rd generation Anchors for easy connection to Leash.
Image from Alben Osaki guest post: Thoughts on the Fujifilm X-T2 for Video
Recently, I’ve shared a rather negative miXed zone, with stories of people, who sold their X-series cameras. And one of the main reasons for people to give back their Fuji was “video”.
And indeed, for many years, “video” was the weak spot of the X-series.
The problem? As top Fujifilm Manager (and also FujiRumors Lover) Toshihisa Iida said here, the X-Trans sensor requires a 20-30% increase in processing power compared to conventional Bayer sensors… and older EXR I and II processors simply could not process appropriately all the video data.

But things changed with the much faster X-Processor Pro, which dramatically improved the video output of Fujifilm cameras such as the X-T2 and X-Pro2.
Sure, there are still areas, where Fujifilm can improve (such as offering internal F-log), but the X-T2 & Co are finally used with great success by many videographers… and I will share one of them in today’s roundup… including some video-centric articles on Fujirumors you might have missed.
The maker of the new Steelsring smart adapters for C645 and EF lenses adapter wrote a little guest article for FujiRumors, which I’m happy to share with all of you today.

Goodbye Fuji X-T2: Why I FINALLY had to let it go at LivingVertical Youtube
I love the Fuji system.
And yes, sometimes I just can’t contain my enthusiasm and excitement for the Fuji X and G systems, which brings me to write long emotional articles when a camera gets discontinued or lose myself in a frenzy of happiness for a rumor, when I could have said everything with 1 headline and saved a lot of my spare time.
That’s who I am… can’t change it… deal with it ;)
However, this is FujiRumors… and I know that this blog is a big source for all things Fuji for many of you guys.
That’s why my number 1 priority will always be to deliver honest, good, fair, fast and accurate service to you… even if it means that sometimes we have to talk “bad” about Fujifilm.
So here on FujiRumors we are are free to…
I’ll just quickly add, that I can do this only because I have absolutely 0% contacts with (and zero favours/money/support from) Fujifilm, which gives me an immense freedom to write whatever I want.
You guys, the FR-readers, are my only boss… and all I want to do is to deliver you the best content and rumors possible.
The Fujifilm X-System is not for everybody. Depending on what your needs are, you may be more or less satisfied with it. Some people love the X-system so much, that they can live with minor issues (maybe waiting for a Kaizen Firmware to fix it), some others just have to return their Fuji camera, just like LivingVertical did with his X-T2 (video above) or alastairarthur did with his X-Pro2 (link below).
But there are also many very happy Fuji users out there, who keep up producing great work with their Fuji gear (such as Kevin Mullins’ recent wedding Photographs)… and I’m happy to share them in this roundup, too.
