Les jeux sont faits! According to a new source Fujifilm decided to put a Full Frame sensor into the X-PRO2.

The source said that existing XF lenses won’t fit on on the new Full Frame X-PRO2. Therefore new FF Fujinon lenses will be offered (initially 3-5) and rest will be Leica lenses via a detachable mount.

Another anonymous source confirmed the rumor of yesterday saying that “the information you have on X-PRO1S being scrapped is correct. The X-PRO2 would be available around 6months after any X-PRO1S which is why it was stopped”.

Until now it’s all unconfirmed, so please take it with a tiny grain of salt.

stay tuned

No more X-PRO1S… all R&D placed into the X-PRO2!

Share

 photo pro_zpsfd438901.jpg

Several months ago I told you that Fuji planed to launch an X-PRO1S first, and then follow with the X-PRO2 in 2015. Now, an anonymous source, told me that:

„no X-Pro1s on the horizon… all R&D [research and development] is being placed into X-Pro2 for 2015.“

Maybe, given the great success of the X-T1, Fuji decided to cut off plans for the X-PRO1S and let the X-T1 remain their top high-end X-series camera until the launch of the X-PRO2.

This rumor comes from an anonymous source, who gave itself a nickname, so that I can recognize it in future (thanks for this). It also shared rumors in the past. Some of the rumors are still unconfirmed and others (X-T1 price) were correct.

For now, take it with a tiny grain of salt.

And feel free to use the rumor box to contact me anonymously (feel free to use a nickname) or drop me an email at fujirumor [at] gmail.com.

Fuji X Secrets: Rico Pfirstinger’s Workshop on June 7th!

Share

 photo rico_zps7bc225d7.png

[UPDATE: the event is already sold out, but Rico will organize more workshops if there is enough interest. Order now and you’ll be added to the waiting list. Check out the dedicated websites: www.fuji-x-secrets.com or www.fuji-x-secrets.de.

We don’t always need new and better cameras, the latest stuff and the hottest gear. No, what we need is to know how to make the best use of what we already own. And that’s exactly what you’ll learn at the workshop of X-series guru Rico Pfirstinger.

On June 7th, in Schwabach (next to Nürnberg, GER), you’ll have the chance to shoot, learn and work with Rico Pfirstinger. Take your X-series camera with you (or Rico will lend you one) and learn how to enjoy the full potential of your X-series camera.

But act fast, as just about 7 persons will be included in the workshop. A small group and a lot to learn. If you want to know more, check out the details here.

You can be sure to learn a lot… and anyone, who has ever read one of his great books, knows what I’m talking about.
