Mark This Date

Fellow X-shooters, please mark this date in your calendar: January 19th, 2017. On this day, Fujifilm will unveil the Fujifilm X100F and X-T20.

Another detail has been unveiled by another source: The X100F AF led is now situated next to the flash.

Ending The Fake Rumors Confusion

  1. If you are going to upgrade from the X100/S/T to the Fujifilm X100F, then you will have to buy the NP-W126s batteries. There is a 0,0% chance that, as claimed elsewhere, the NP-95 batteries of the X100/S/T will fit in the X100F.
  2. I got some scared emails from X-shooters, worried that the X100F will not be able to shot ACROS, because fake rumors say it could feature the old EXRII Processor. As we know, and confirmed also by X-guru Rico Pfirstinger in our forum here “ACROS is an X-Processor PRO thing“. And of course you will be able to shoot ACROS with your X100F.
  3. At CP+ in February in Japan, the X100F will be already “old” news… but this does not mean that other hot stuff could be announced there… who knows ;)

A cataclysmic shift

I had a cataclysmic shift in my photographic equipment this year. As many seem to be doing now (after dipping my toes in the waters over the last few years), I bit the bullet and sold my beloved Nikon D3X and lenses, and swapped fully over to Fuji. I won’t bore you all with the minutia of the details – but suffice to say it was a very big emotional and financial endeavor. I have been shooting Nikon for over 30 years now – starting with the Nikon F3 and worked my way up through all the models, ending with the D3X. My wonderful Nikon F4 served me so well for many years of shooting ‘stock’ in the heyday (90’s).

However a few miles under the belt and a few creaky bones later, I was finding it increasingly difficult to lug my huge D3X and Nikkor 70-200 around in the tropical heat of Asia. My wife and I live in a small gold-mining town in the Western Australian desert. It is the most boring forsaken place on the face of God’s earth. However, with stable paying jobs and other reasons we choose to live here at the moment. However, because there is nothing to photograph here, my cameras sit locked in their little cupboard most of the year. Fortunately travel to Asia from Perth airport (not counting the 8 hour drive to get there), is cheap and not many hours flight. We go to Asia a lot and that is where I love to photograph.

Fujifilm GFX :: “Autofocus? It’s Almost like Working with the X-system” (VIDEO)

Share

Pål Laukli is working with a pre-production Fujifilm GFX, and in his video shared at Fujifilm Global here, he says:

  • If you are used to the X-system, then you will get used soon with the GFX.
  • Shooting tethered is possible
  • JPEG with amazing color depth, very sharp, the skin tones, and X-System feel.
  • Having worked with many different Medium Format System, it was a pleasure to see that the focussing system on the GFX is almost like working with the X-system [NOTE: he does not specify if the AF speed is similar to the one of the X-E1/Pro1, X-E2/T1 or X-T2/Pro2. But it’s safe to assume it could eventually match the speed of X-series cameras with only contrast detection AF, hence X-E1/Pro1… and franky, that alone would already be quite awesome for a MF camera].
  • All the optics delivered a special feeling.

Fujifilm X-T2 Roundup: “An Absolute Monster. Astonishing JPEG’s. It Can Match the Big FF Boys” + Charity Auction

Share

James shared his comparison Fuji X-T2 vs Nikon D750 at James A Photography Youtube.

Autofocus on X-T2 is fantastic, outstanding IQ, the JPEG’s are great and “you hardly have to touch them. They are perfect, the colors, the contrast, the sharpness“, and even better ISO (smoother and cleaner of 12,000 ISO for the X-T2). At the end of the day he just “can’t believe that this little thing [X-T2] does what it does. It absolutely competes with the Full Frame Nikon D750.”

And here are some more X-T2 links:

CHARITY AUCTION

40 Italian photographers (including X-photographers like Max Angeloni and Luca Bracali) organized an auction for December 15 at the city of l’Aquila, to support some friends, who lost everything in the recent series of earthquakes. If you are in the area, you can go there to see the exhibition and eventually also join the acution.

The exhibition starts December 15 (and the auction will take place in the evening of December 15).
