No Full Frame for Fuji X100T successor? New Source says: “Same sensor of Fuji X-PRO2”

Share

A New Source told me, that the X100T successor will have the same sensor of the Fujifilm X-PRO2 (which is rumored to feature an APS-C sensor).

So, no switch to a Full Frame sensor for the X100 line, at least not with the X100T successor. Some rumors shared in the past (by other sites), suggested a Fuji X200 with a FF sensor, and I believe that they even might have been right at the time when they were shared. But, if the New Source is right, Fujifilm dropped those plans and the competitor of the Leica Q and Sony RX1 will sport the next generation of Fujifilm’s APS-C sensor!

Sure, it would have been relatively uncomplicated for Fujifilm to switch from APS-C to FF with their fixed lens camera line (no need to launch a whole new series of lenses). But it seems that Fujifilm is firmly convinced of the virtues of the upcoming X-PRO2 sensor.

And indeed, the rumored sensor specs look very promising and exciting: phase detection pixels all over the frame, 24MP ASP-C sensor, X-Trans III, back-illuminated Sensor, maybe even native on sensor HDR for a higher dynamic range than any camera of the FF SonyA7 line… sounds good ;)

Ok, this new rumor marks the beginning of a probably very long X100T successor rumor story… and here is Chapter 1 of the rumored specs list:

EISA AWARDS 2015-2016 to Fujifilm X-T10 + XF 16-55… and to Sony, Canon, Panasonic, Olympus, Leica, Nikon…

Share

There is a reason to celebrate for Fujiflm… and for Canon… and Leica, Sony, Olympus, Panasonic, Nikon…

EISA declared them the best cameras of the year! It just depends in which category, and there are quite a lot of them at the EISA Photography Award!

Last year EISA was able to distinguish between “advanced CSC” (Fuji X-T1) and “professional CSC” (Sony A7r). I could never figure out what makes one camera advanced, and the other professional.

For sure CanonWatch would not call the A7 line a PRO camera, and not even the brand new Sony A7rII. He actually even calls it the most over-hyped and over-priced camera of the year… Read why here.

At least, this year EISA decided to drop the “advanced CSC Category“. Here are a few awards:
