Top 10 Attacks on Fujifilm (That Don’t Make Sense): Full Frame Desires, GFX Facts Distortion, Kaizen Death, X-Trans Flaws, DOF and more

Criticizing and attacking Fujifilm is quite popular on the internet, and down below I will talk about possible reasons why it is like this.

Sometimes these critiques are justified, but sometimes I feel these attacks are unjustified.

Let’s talk about it now.

Fujifilm X Summit Talk with Jonas Rask, XF 33mmF1.4 vs XF35mmF1.4, Fuji Guys GFX50SII Unboxing and More

It seems like an eternity, but it was just a bit more than two weeks ago, that Fujifilm launched plenty of new gear (that they will ship sometimes in 2023 ;) ).

So let’s use this weekend to catch up with some coverage that has been shared since them. You can find it all down below.

But before that, in case you just came back from holiday and wonder what the heck you might have missed, here is a recap of previous Fujifilm X summit coverage articles:

FujiCast with Fujifilm Manager: X-H2 Talk, Monochrome GFX, Amazing 2022 for Fuji, Kaizen Talk, “Tonygate” and More

Fujicast is back with new episode #197 and #198. Also again on the podcast, Fujifilm UK manager Andreas Georghiades.

Not so surprising, as Japanese Fujifilm managers confirmed it already a few times: there will be a Fujifilm X-H2 one day. It’s probably Fuji’s way to facepalm publicy when they read the fake rumor the X-H line had been canceled ;).

They also talk about the Tony Northrup video, where Tony does not look overly optimistic to Fujifilm’s future.

Down below you can find the podcast as well as a summary.

Fujifilm Announces Delivery Delay for GFX50S II with GF35-70mm Kit Due to Pre-Orders Exceeding Expectations

Fujifilm just announced that the pre-orders for the Fujifilm GFX50SII and GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 kit are higher than expected, and that this could lead to delivery delays.

Now, some might say this is a standard marketing phrase, and I don’t know, maybe it is for other brands.

But in the Fujifilm world, when Fujifilm announced delivery delays due to high demand, then you can be sure we will go though a delivery delay that might take months.

I will spare you with Fujifilm’s delivery nightmares, like the the 1+ year it took them to regularly deliver the Fujifilm X100S or, to talk about the more recent times, the shipping struggles of the Fujifilm GFX100S, which got twice the pre-orders Fuji expected and 7/8 months after announcement is still a rare good to find in stock.

So here is my gentle advice to Fujifilm.

Dear Fujifilm, maybe you didn’t notice, but people do buy your stuff. Don’t be so pessimistic in your predictions anymore, and just start to announce stuff that you can actually produce in good numbers and deliver. Letting us wait for half a year or more is not fun.
