Imagine an X-E3, spec’ed like the X100F, which one would you buy? Of course consider differences, like the hybrid viewfinder and leaf shutter on the X100F and the interchangeable lenses on the X-E3. But for the rest, sensor, processor, AF-performance, video capabilities and so forth would be identical.
Why this Survey?
I launch this Poll to see, which camera would sell better amongst FujiRumors readers. And a little bit I launch it also for Fujifilm Managers… this market study comes to you for free, but if you really insist, I could also accept a free Fujifilm GFX* ;)
* or can you at least make a special ultra-discounted price for me? My masterplan to get the money for the GFX is not really working. And now it starts to be quite hard to stay out in the cold for hours.
The Windows Version of Tether Shooting Plug-in PRO for Adobe Photoshop Lightroom now available at the Adobe Add-ons site here.
A FR-reader already send me his first feedback:
Not a rumor, but a fact:
1. My previous version of the FUJIFILM Tether Shooting Plug-in (Windows version) was automatically updated (at no extra cost) to version 1.3.0 via Adobe CC. Works flawlessly with my X-T2.
2. The PRO version is available now also for both Mac and WIN.
3. Unexpected features in the PRO version (when controlling the camera from the PC):
– focus bracketing
– overlay mode, to align a new shot with an earlier one.
Yoohoo!
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
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.
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.
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 ;)
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.
