Fujifilm X100T Successor

It’s a question that pops up very often these days in the comments: when will the Fujifilm X100T Successor come?

Believe me, it’s a very tricky question, because Fujifilm changes plans so often… especially after the Kumamoto earthquake (NOTE: the Sony Factory in Kumamoto produces Fuji X-Trans sensors & sensors also for many other companies).

So, whatever I say, at this stage, take it with a grain of salt. But right now it seems that the Fujifilm X100T successor will be release in 2017 only.

– – – End of the Rumor – – –

Fujifilm, so my very personal guess, has to deal with a shortage of X-Trans III sensors coming from Sony. So they decided to first focus on the Fujifilm X-T2 and use all the sensors available for the X-T2. Once everything goes back to normal and there will be enough X-TransIII sensors again, then Fujifilm can also release the X100T successor. And this will, accroding to the rumor, very likely happen only in 2017.

And upon request from readers, here is a Poll regarding the X100T successor: should it be able to shoot 4K, is Full HD enough, or should it have no Video at all?

FUJIFILM Annual Fiscal Report 2016

FUJIFILM Annual Fiscal Report 2016

The Fujifilm Annual Fiscal Report 2016 is now online.

In the Report you can see, that 14% of FUJIFILM’s entire earnings come from the “Imaging Solution“. And only 4% of these 14% is revenue generated by the “optical device and electronic imaging solution“, which includes prodcuts “such as the X Series of digital cameras, interchangeable lenses, and TV lenses“. The latter went down 14,2% compared to the previous fiscal year.

However, “profitability improved in the electronic imaging field, reflecting the further shift to such high-end digital camera models as the X Series“. The “Sales of the X Series were strong due to sales expansion in the Asian region“.

As to expect, the report says that Instax is growing (more than 5 million units sold in 1 year). Just take a look at the AmazonUS OVERALL Camera & Photo ranking, and you get an idea why Fujifilm is pushing Instax (latest addition the Selfie Mirror Instax Mini 70).
