I just got a tip (thanks) from an anonymous source with nick-name, who told me that the Fujinon XF 16-55mm f/2.8 WR lens will be announced on January 6th. For now take it with the mandatory grain of salt.

As always, I’ll be here on FR to make a live blogging about this lens: wherever on the world-wide web there is something worth to shared and known about this lens, I’ll let you know about it in real-time through the live blogging.

And of course, if you want to pre-order it, you can do it using one of the affiliate links featured here on Fujirumors. You’ll support this blog with no extra costs for you. Any help is appreciated.

stay tuned on Fuji Rumors,

“Fujifilm won’t have a booth at CES 2015! My Guess? Big Announcements in Late 2015” (DPR-moderator Chris)

Share

photo asd_zps246a5358.jpg

If you are going to Las Vegas for the CES, you will probably waste your time looking for the Fujifilm booth, since, according to dpr-moderator Chris (f-sunny, via dpreview) – who’s heading to Las Vegas soon -, there won’t be any Fujifilm booth at CES… just rooms for business meetings.

Chris assumes there won’t be “big announcement, because they have no booth to show it/them off. My guess would be Fuji will save their announcements for shows late in 2015, and have a Fuji booth at those locations.”

If Chris is right, then this means that Fujifilm has not that much in the pipeline for the next couple of months (the 16-55mmF2.8, the 16mmF1.4 and a rumored entry level X, which should be also the last one, according to actioncamerarumors).

The Fujifilm X-PRO2? Oh yes, this one is coming too, sooner or later in 2015 ;) .
