Fujifilm Medium Format

In these days, my gmail account (fujirumor@gmail.com) is exploding! I get many questions from X-shooters interested in the Hasselblad X1D, who want to know more about the rumored Fujifilm Medium Format.

Now, I’m working on it, and I’ve already shared some specs about the Fujifilm Medium Format. 50MP, to be launched along with 3 lenses maybe to be presented to the world at Photokina and available in 2017. For full Medium Format Coverage search for “Medium Format” on FujiRumors.

But there is something more I can share with all of you today, and it’s a partial answer to the most voted of our 7 crucial Medium Format Questions: How much will the Fujifilm Medium Format camera cost?

I had a talk with a trusted source, who told me that the Medium Format Mirrorless Fujifilm will be “definitely more affordable” than the Hasselblad X1D.

I don’t know the precise price for now (and I’m not sure if Fuji has set a definitive price at this stage), but the words “more affordable” just sound good to me :-) .

Make sure to follow FujiRumors also on Fuji X Forum, Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter… because this is just the beginning :-)

New Fujifilm NP-W126 MK II Battery will Generate Less Heat (Trusted Source)

Fujifilm NP-W126

Fujifilm NP-W126 MK II

I’ve received the rumor (from trusted source) that the new Fujifilm NP-W126 batteries will handle heat better. Less heat generation allows us to shoot 4K and use the full power of the X-T2 (via “boost” function on the Vertical Grip).

I remind you that Fuji Guy Billy said here, the X-Pro2 can’t shoot 4K, because it can’t dissipate heat properly.

No word about higher capacity batteries.

End of the Rumor

As far as I know (but correct me if I’m wrong), the main sources of heat generation are:

  • Sensor
  • Processor
  • Batteries
  • Writing on SD-cards
  • Screen/EVF

Heat disspiation is a major problem with mirrorless cameras. Fujifilm could solve all problems, by making the X-T2 camera body significantly larger, but most of us love the compact size of the X-series mirroless cameras.

Also, if you want to maximize the power of the X-T2, you can’t really minimize the heat generated by the sensor, processor, EVF refresh rate or SD-card writing process. So the only thing left where Fujifilm could work on in order to solve the heat-issue are the batteries.

TESTED: Third Party Fuji Batteries? “Inflated capacity values. Some batteries almost Fraud!”… and the Winner is…?

I had some magic moments thanks to the SP-1 printer… here is one:

When I was in Cambodia, I walked through the wonderful fields near Kampot, taking some pics. I met a child, took an image, and handled the print to him. He run to his mother, showed the print, and within minutes I had all the family and relatives and neighbours around me, looking like that prints were magic and asking for a photo.

Then I continued making some photos of them…. then I made some magics for them… then they offered me some sticky rice and a fresh juice.

A perfect moment of my journey… started with a simple print!
