I have an update regarding the Fujifilm X-Pro2 shipping.

A source told me that the shipping embargo is February 4, so just 3 weeks after the announcement :)

But remember: it could be different from country to country. And if there are last second FW bugs or problem of any kind, everything will be delayed… just as it is happening with the mysterious Fuji X-T1 IR, where Fuji officially said it will ship October 2015, but  still unavailable.

Moreover, digicame-info just said that Fuji will also launch the Finepix XP90, the successor or the Finepix XP80. Here is the full list of digicame-info
– X-Pro2
– X-E2S (Black Silver)
– XF100-400mm F4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR
– X70 (Black Silver)
– FinePix XP90

I normally do not cover FinePix cameras, but I’m glad to share with you the first image of it :)

The XP90

A trusted source said that the X-Pro2 will be slightly bigger than the X-Pro1 and also weight also a bit more (445g compared to the 400g of the X-Pro1 – without battery and SD-card). I remind you that the X-Pro2 will be weather sealed and have dual SD card slot.

It also send me details to the AE bracketing:

AE Bracketing
X-Pro2: AE bracketing up to ±2EV
X-Pro1: AE Bracketing up to ±1 EV

Already starting: blog posts and videos about the X-Pro2 based on the rumored specs. For example at the Spanish site fuji-xperience.es (translation) and a youtube video of Rediscover Film. And of course, there is our dedicated X-Pro2 thread.

I’ve been asked this quesiton many times over at Facebook and via email at fujirumor [at] gmail [dot] com. When will the Fuji X-Pro2 ship?

The answer is really difficult and it’s actually hard for me to share these kind of rumors. Why? Because Fuji can change shipping date embargo in any moment and because it can be different according to the country, where the X-Pro2 will ship. Not to talk if Fuji finds a little last second FW bug. Or remember the unlucky X100S delivering odyssey?

Ok, you got the point.

So I can’t give you a precise date, but from what I hear, the Fuji X-Pro2 could ship pretty quickly after its announcement (January 15). In the best case it should ship still in January (which would make it the fastest X-gear shipping ever). In any case I’m very optimistic for delivery at least the first half of February.

But don’t forget the grain of salt.

That said… no matter what even Fujifilm says, let’s cross fingers that they will be able to respect their own predictions. Not like the mysterious Fuji X-T1 IR, expected for October 2015, and still unavailable.

SIZE COMPARISON: Ricoh GR  Vs. X100T Vs. X70

The prophecy is real!

Already 2 years ago our sources told us that Fuji is considering to make a camera called Fuji X70, EVF-less and with fixed lens.

In the last weeks our sources told us that it will have a 18.5mmF2.8 lens, a touch & flip screen, 16MP X-Trans sensor and EXRII processor + optional viewfinder. All this is now confirmed by our rumor friend over at digicame-info.

He also leaked the First Images of the Fujifilm X70, which will be unveiled on January 15 (January 14 – 11:30PM NY-Time), along with the X-Pro2, X-E2s, XF100-400 and the X-E2 Firmware.
