The Time to hesitate is over. There is right now just one space left to join Rico’s X-workshop in Istanbul. Check out the details and claim the last free space for you at the Fuji X Secrets Istanbul Foto Workshop (from 30 April to 5 May).

Rico offers also a Fuji X Secrets Weekend Wrokshop at the 30./31 May in Schwabach / Nürnberg (GER) and a workshop dedicated to the X30 here (1 space left).

PLEASE NOTE that all the workshops are in GERMAN!

For those who can’t join the privileged “Istanbul eXpedtion“, a good option to learn more about the X-system are definitely Rico’s books. His latest book, “The Fujifilm X-T1, 111 eXpert Tips” will be available soon.

111 X-Pert Tips

It’s called Affinity Photo and its beta version has just been released (and you can test it for free, if you own a MAC!). The Promo Video at Vimeo looks definitely promising. Is this the real alternative to the Adobe’s Creative Cloud?

For now, the X-series RAF’s supported are (according to the Affinity Forum): Fuji X-Pro1, Fuji X-S1, Fuji X100, Fuji X100S, Fuji X10, Fuji X20, Fuji X-E1 and Fuji XF1

The question for Fuji X-shooters is: how does it handle the X-Trans files? So, if you own a Mac, just download it for free and let us know what you think about.

POSTED EARLIER TODAY: New Fuji roadmap, First image of the XF 35mmF2 WR lens, XF16mmF1.4 + 90mmF2 WR lens will be weather sealed too.

[IMPORTANT UPDATE: the XF35mmF2 seems to be WEATHER RESISTANT… read more here]

MESSAGE TO THE SOURCE: Thanks again for sharing once more a correct rumor and congratulations… you just joined the elite team of trusted sources. Also, feel free to use your nick-name to create a fake email account so that we can directly talk to each other… just if you want.

THE NEW ROADMAP

So here it is, the new lens roadmap. You can check it out at Fuji’s site here. NOTE: “The 1.4x teleconverter will be compatible with the following lenses: XF50-140mmF2.8 R LM OIS WR, XF120mmF2.8 R Macro, XF100-400mm”

Just a personal consideration: to me, the new 35mmF2 could indicate that Fuji considers the lens roadmap more or less complete now, and they therefore started developing newer version (or variations) of older lenses. I know many of you desire a compact 23mmF2. I also would like to see some weather resistant versions of existing XF lenses. Who knows if they will come in a future roadmap (oh well, that’s actually my job to find it out ;) ).

I just updated the previous lens roadmap poll with these “new entries”.
