Instax Share SP-2 First Look… a matter for the Fuji Guys Boss Billy! (VIDEO) – Direct Printing via X-camera Possible (of course)

Share

 

14 minutes of Fuji guy Video for the Instax SP-2 Printer. That’s a longer video than the one Billy made for the X70.

It’s known that the real money maker in Fujifilm’s imaging division is the Instax-Universe, so not a suprise that Instax Product first looks are often a matter for the boss amongst the Fuji Guys… who takes all the time he needs to guide you through the features of this fun little printer.

Oh, and since I saw some people confused about it… of course you can send images directly from your X-series camera to the printer :-)

Enjoy the Video on youtube

Fujifilm X-T2 with Dual SD-Card slot (both UHS-II compatible) + Clarifying the Heat-Thing with the new batteries!

Share

july 7

6 months of X-T2 rumors… and in a few days it will be finally here! But ’till then, the rumor work is not over.

So here are 2 more details I’d like to share with you (and they come from 2 different sources).

  1. The Fujfiilm X-T2 will have dual SD-card slot (nothing new), but the source says both will be UHS-II compatible (on the X-Pro2 only 1 is UHS-II ready)
  2. I told you several times about the new batteries, which should solve the heat issue and allow 4K shooting. And that’s what they will do: they’ll manage heat better. Now, it’s rather technical discussion, but it might be possible that the batteries actually don’t really create less heat, they just manage/dissipate it better. The source also gave me a more technical explanation, but I think all we have to know is this: the new heat managment of the new batteries will prevent overheating and allow 4K shooting.

So, that’s it. I’m quite exhausted, but still alive, and excited… and ready to push you to July 7, when, finally, the X-T2 will be presented to the world!

stay tuned,

From the direction of the reader, we have to provide information about the event for stakeholders of Fujifilm.

Previously, but Fujifilm is information that an event in North America and Europe were flowing on July 7, but as events in Japan (sneak preview) will be held.

Fujifilm Patents XF16-55mmF2.8… with OIS !

OIS

XF16-55mmF2.8 OIS len

egami spotted the following patent: an XF16-55mmF2.8 OIS lens… yep, with OIS!

Fujifilm received quite a shitstorm because of the lack of OIS in the XF16-55mmF2.8. The official explanation why Fujifilm didn’t implement OIS in the 16-55 can be found here:

“OIS needs to move the lens inside to compensate for camera shake and as a result can cause loss of resolution in the edges of the image. In long zoom lens such as the XF50-140mmF2.8, the angle of view is narrow enough to not show this negative effect of OIS in the edges. However, the angle of view of the XF16-55mm, when set to the widest setting, is large enough for OIS to affect resolution at the edge of the image. Considering this trade-off, because we wanted this zoom lens to start wide at 16mm and F2.8, and we wanted to best edge-to-edge quality throughout the entire zoom range, we decided to not employ OIS.”

PATENT : google translated

Fujifilm patent applications corresponds to the anti-vibration 16-55mm F2.8 but is an optical system, the was released is not an anti-vibration 16-55mm F2.8 It was. Since the anti-vibration corresponding to the lens is bloated, is that of to have to dare not designed with anti-vibration. Or if there the Kai, XF FUJINON 16-55Mm F2.8 It is R LM WR good lens of reputation.

But better to hesitation that it is not in the anti-vibration would be many. Because when you pursue the optical performance lens resulting in a bloated, Sony and Olympus , as, in the telephoto lens Dual IS, I standard system is perhaps good to within the body anti-shake.
