Amazon Prime Kicks Off in Europe… with a Tempting Adobe Creative Cloud Photography Plan Deal and Much More

Share

 

Amazon Prime has started in Europe.

Of course there are a sheer endless amount of great deals.

But here we talk photography and Fujifilm, so I will focus only what I consider relevant and good deals for the photography and Fujifilm community.

Especially tempting (for me) is the huge rebate on the Adobe Creative Cloud Photography plan. You know I plan on leaving Capture One and this deal is tempting me to switch back to Adobe.

Surprise: Fujifilm X-M5 to be Launched in Second Half of 2024

Share

We told you that Fujifilm will revive a camera line in 2024.

I guess most of us hoped for the Fujifilm X70 successor, hence the Fujifilm X80.

But that won’t be the case.

According to our trusted sources, Fujifilm will launch the Fujifilm X-M5 in the second half of 2024.

A while back I wrote an article about the top 10 flop cameras of Fujifilm and the original Fujifilm X-M1 made it into that list.

I explained why the Fujifilm X-M1 failed (despite being the better camera over the Fujifilm X-A1) and which lessons Fujifilm should learned from that failure.

Let’s hope that this time they will do things right and give the Fujifilm X-M line the success it deserves.

And of course, feel free to let us know in the comments how you’d like the Fujifilm X-M5 to be.

Why a Digital XPan Fujifilm TX-3 Camera is NOT Needed

Share

Look guys,

I am fan of the idea of Fujifilm launching the Fujifilm TX-3 digital XPan camera in 2028.

I support this idea and I hope that that rumor will become true in a few years from now.

And I am not the only one.

FR-reader Pavel has written a wonderful article about why a digital XPan is needed and has shared lots of gorgeous samples.

I have also added my own thoughts to this debate.

But FujiRumors is a community. And in a community we can have different ideas.

And we love to give space to people who have a different view on certain things, even if those views do not match with my ideas.

And today it’s Timothy (Instagram @gibsonetal), who dropped me an email and told me why a digital Fujifilm TX-3 XPan camera is not needed.

I’ll share this thoughts below and you are free to drop your feedback in the comments below.

No ultra-wide TX-1 or XPAN? Just get an anamorphic lens!
