Fujifilm to Launch a Brown Fujifilm X100F

Fujifilm X100F

Hey all,

the weekend is finally about to start, and I thought it would be nice to end the week with a little rumor.

So here it is… our trusted sources inform us that Fujifilm will launch a brown Fujifilm X100F.

*** Fujifilm X100 Line facebook group ***

The Fujifilm X100F is a tremendous success for Fujifilm, way beyond anything that its predecessors could achieve in terms of sales. And in future we will get a brown version, too.

And if you own an X100F, Rico’s Fujifilm X100F eBook “101 X-pert Tips to get the most out of your camera“, is now available at RockyNook here. Includes PDF, iBook/ePub & Mobi/Kindle. Save 40% with code “Fuji40”

Fujifilm X100F: BHphoto, Adorama, AmazonUS, Focuscamera

have a fantastic weekend,

New Brown Fuji X-M1 images. Release in late July!

Here are some new images of the Brown X-M1 (via Digicaminfo). Yep, the X-M1 will come in Black, Silver and Brown. The camera is going to ship from July 27 while the Brown version is coming in September. You can buy it as body only, as kit version with the new XC16-50mm lens and as double lens kit version with the zoom and the new XF27mm F2.8 pancake.

The new zoom has a 12 lens in 10 groups design, 3 of them are aspherical lenses. The new 27mm pancake length is 23mm and weights 78g.

Still not super exact info yet about the price in dollars. But we hope to get it soon…

Fujifilm Wins at RedDot and TIPA Awards 2024

Fujifilm wins awards.

I love particularly one category this time: “best Polaroid camera”, won by…. the Polaroid I-2. Must have been very though for Polaroid to win that one!

Fujifilm X100VI Zagato Limited Edition – BODY SKIN (UPDATED)

With the launch of the Fujifilm X100VI, Fujifilm also announced a limited edition Fujifilm X100VI that will come in a limited number of 1934 samples worldwide.

But now a Zagato edition of the Fujifilm X100VI has appeared online on the Chinese Weibo social media (see above).

I could not verify (until now) if this is a legit version or just a photoshopped Zagato X100VI or some special X100VI skin (like the ones offerd for X100VI by Alphagvrd).

If I should place a bet, I’d say this is a body skin in Alphagvrd style.

But if this really exists, then Fujifilm would become the 2nd brand who has ever offered a Zagato version of its cameras (if I am not wrong).

In fact, there is a limited Zagato edition offered with the Leica M10, limited to 250-piece and you can check it out here.

UPDATE: It’s a skin made by a Thai company here.

Instax Cameras, Just Different: Jollylook Pinhole Instant Film Camera and NONS SL660 Instant Camera

Fujifilm offers lots of Instant cameras.

And while I like some of them more than others (with this one being my favorite), none of them has a radical different concept.

But if you are looking for something different that sets itself apart from the other Instant cameras (and yet takes Fujifilm Instax Film), then today I’d like to present you two options:

Fujifilm X100VI Coming also in Limited Edition

this is just a rendering based on the limited Disney Edition X100V
this is just a rendering based on the limited Disney Edition X100V

On February 20th, apparently the question will be not only: Fujifilm X100VI silver or Fujifilm X100VI black?

Because according to our sources (thanks!), Fujifilm will launch also a limited edition Fujifilm X100VI.

This is not the first time we got limited edition X100 cameras:

Now, all those limited editions X100 cameras were always launched a while after the release of the standard versions.

However, the fact that our sources have informed us about the limited edition X100VI coming too, might indicate that, for the first time ever, the limited edition X100 could come along with the standard version.

In my opinion, the best limited X100 edition that Fujifilm has launched, was the one of the original X100, which was produced in a limited number of 10,000 samples and shipped with a couple of all-black accessories (you can read what was included here).

Now, I don’t know what Fujifilm is preparing for us this time.

I just hope it’s not a Taylor Swift limited edition Fujifilm camera ;).
