If there is one camera, that was massively covered by Fuji’s Kaizen Love, then it’s the Fujifilm X-T1. Let’s take a look at the major updates over the last years:

Well… it seems that Fujifilm is planing to release another FW update, that will bring a few new features. I don’t think Fuji will introduce such massive changes, that Rico has to rewrite his X-T1 book, but there should be some tweaks & new features we will all appreciate. So don’t expect gigantic changes, but it won’t be just a “bug fix/add compatibility” firmware :-)

I’ll work to find out the features… and in the meantime, tell us in the comments what you would like to have.

The bad news in all this? One source (thanks dude), said this will be the last “Kaizen Firmware” for the X-T1.

As always, when it comes to Firmware stuff, take it with a grain of salt.

MESSAGE TO THE SOURCE, who also said it will be the last Kazen FW: Thanks for sharing. If you want, contact me via email (create a fake email account if you want). We could talk and exchange some information about the other stuff ;).

have a great day,

Good news (also for Fujifilm): Sony sensor production will resume on May 21!

Share

Sony issued a new press release to inform that the Kumamoto facility damaged during the recent earthquake will resume the wafer sensor production on May 21.

Of course not just the Sony factory has been hit by the earthquake, but also third-party suppliers, who are also very important to keep the sensor production running. In this regard, the press release says:

Although there was a delay in the supply of components to Sony from certain third-party suppliers that also have manufacturing facilities in the Kumamoto region, inventory adjustments have been made and a timeframe for regaining supply levels is now in place, so no material impact is anticipated on Sony’s business operations.

Does this mean there won’t be any delay on future products? I don’t think so :(

RUMOR :: Fuji X100T Successor still with 23mm lens! (SRP)

Share

X00

[wysija_form id=”1″]

_ _ _

In the past I’ve shared an anonymous rumor, which said that the X100T successor will have a 18.5mm lens (28 equiv.). Well, I have to correct that now, since, according to a source right in the past, the X100T successor will still have a 23mm (35mm equiv.) lens.

And looking at the Poll results, that’s a good news for most out there.

Which equivalent focal length would you prefer?

But does this mean it will be the same lens of the X100, X100S and X100T? I don’t think so. While the X100T successor will keep the classic 23mm focal length, a SRP told us here that Fuji is designing a new lens. And considering that the camera will very likely feature the new X-TransIII sensor (rumor here), it makes perfectly sense to me… new sensor – new lens.

That’s if for now… stay tuned for more rumors :-)
