Fujifilm X-T3: New X-Trans Sensor Less than 30 MP, Announcement Around Photokina 2018, Shipping October/November & more

Share

Fujifilm X-T3

Ok guys…the following Fujifilm X-T3 rumor is a mix of information I got from trusted as well as new sources.

  • Fujifilm X-T3 announcement around photokina 2018, which takes place at the end of September – TRUSTED SOURCE (probably shortly before photokina)
  • New X Processor Pro – TRUSTED SOURCE
  • New X Trans Sensor with more than 24MP but less than 30 MP – TRUSTED SOURCE
  • Shipping in October/November, but more likely November – NEW SOURCE

Particularly interesting I find the information about the new X-Trans sensor having less than 30 Megapixel. I know some were expecting 32 or even 36 megapixel, but this will not happen, at least not with Fujfilm’s next X Trans sensor generation.

At the moment I have no idea how many megapixel it will have, but in any case it seems it won’t be really a huge jump from 24 MP.

I will try to find out more and let you know as soon as possible.

TESTED: Fujifilm Real Time Geotagging via Bluetooth. Quick Guide and Some Tips + Auto Image Transfer

Share

Fujifilm Auto Geotagging

Back in October, I told you that Fujifilm will release a new firmware update for real-time geotagging within 2017. Well I was wrong… it came 15 days later ;) .

The bluetooth on the X-E3 is one of the reasons I went for the X-E3 instead of any other Fujifilm camera. I really want auto-geotagging, and I knew Fujifilm’s Kaizen approach will bring it to my X-E3 one day. And now it’s here. And I’m super-happy!

I have immediately tested the new geotagging and first feedback is… it just works fine :)

But there are some settings and a few things you want to make sure to check out to make it work properly. So here is a little guide and some tips.

Follow these steps to avoid bad surprises ;)

Fujifilm Releases Firmware Update for Fujifilm X-E3 (Auto-Geotagging) and Fujifilm X-Pro2 (Bug Fix)

Share

Fujifilm X-E3 Firmware

Back in October, I told you that Fujifilm will release a new firmware update for real-time geotagging within 2017. Well I was wrong… it came 15 days later ;) . And just as we rumored here, the X-E3 firmware is twice as big as the X-T20 firmware.

1. Auto Geotagging and Date/Time synchronization by Bluetooth pairing
When connecting to Bluetooth, Geotagging and Date/Time information of a camera can be synchronized with the information of a smartphone. “SMARTPHONE SYNC. SETTING” is added in Bluetooth SETTING. *To use this function, the application software “FUJIFILM Camera Remote” needs to be upgrade to the latest version Ver.3.1.0.

2. The phenomenon is fixed that live view blinks on LCD and EVF with face detection and dynamic range 400% setting.

In order to make the X-E3 auto geotagging work properly, you also have to update your remote camera app. The latest version 3.1.0 has been released yesterday here. I have made a super quick intial test and it works. Here is my (ACROS+R) cat geotagged. :)
