Click HERE to see the original FujiRumors Poll, that Fujfiilm used in an official presentation to the Press

APS-C line-up is (almost) complete

If you take a look at the eXcellent Overview over ALL existing and upcoming Fuji X mount lenses here, then you’ll see that with about 70 X-mount lenses available (or soon to come), we can not really talk of a lacking X-mount lens system.

Moreover, if the rumored lenses in Fuji’s roadmap will ever become true, then most of the needs of us X-shooters will be covered. At that point, the APS-C line-up can be considered almost complete.

The Poll

So the big question now is: once Fujifilm completed its APS-C line-up, should they offer a Full Frame sensor or a Medium Format sensor system in addition to its APS-C line-up? Or maybe none of the two and just stick with APS-C?

What would be the better choice for Fujifilm? Feel free to vote the Poll and drop your comment down below.

Dual SD-Card slot for the Fujifilm X-Pro2! (anonymous source) – with POLL

Share

photo PRO2 BELIEVE_zpsmfcps7pr.jpg

I’ve already shared it last year from a new source, and now an anonymous source (thanks) says it too: the Fujifilm X-Pro2 will feature a dual SD-Card slot.

No confirmation from trusted source so far.

As you might remember, the Fuji X-T1 was planed to have 2 SD-Card slots, too. However, Fuji changed plans (as so often), sealed one SD-Card slot, and decided to go for a single SD-card slot with support for ultra-fast UHS-II SD-Card.

I’d love to see a Fuji X-Pro2 with dual UHS-II SD-card slot. But if you should decide between just one of these two feature, which one would you prefer?

TESTED: Third Party Fuji Batteries? “Inflated capacity values. Some batteries almost Fraud!”… and the Winner is…?

Share

There are many cheap alternatives to the original Fujifilm NP-W126 battery… but which one is the best between the following ones?

Photoprimus, 1300 mAh
Extreme Wolf, 1250 mAh
Patona, 1100 mAh
Synergy Digital, 1500 mAh
ChiliPower, 1350 mAh
Original Fujifilm, 1260 mAh

The French site tirages-pro tested them all, and their conclusion is (google translated):

“In general, the announced capacity values ​​are fetched and widely inflated. More than 30% error, some almost fall announced capacities of fraud.

In batteries tested, only Patona branded batteries and original batteries Fuji stand out and respect the advertised capacity.

So, the choice is simple. Either we research the best capacity/price and only Patona tested batteries meet this criterion. Either the capacity is favored without looking at the price and in this case, the Fuji batteries are the right option.”

Patona batteries: AmazonUS (for X100 series) / AmazonDE / AmazonUK (for X100 series) / AmazonITA / AmazonFRA / AmazonESP

You might be missing the Wasabi 1400 mAh batteries and the Watson 1120 mAh battery in this list. These batteries are very popular in America, but are not sold in Europe, at least not under this name. I believe (but please correct me if I’m wrong) that Wasabi and Patona are made by the same manufacturer, so the quality of the product should be the same. [UPDATE: You can find Wasabi batteries also in Europe]

Of course there are even more batteries on the market. Feel free to share your experience in the comments. I’m very happy with my Patona’s.
