BHphoto is kicking off the Holiday Season with some great deals on SanDisk storage media, Apple products and more.
In terms of storage media, we’d like to highlight:
Well, not bad at all Fujifilm!
3 higher end cameras coming out and 4 XF lenses.
We certainly can agree upon the fact that Fujifilm wasn’t lazy in 2022!
And since during the last X summit the Japanese manager said that this was the last X summit of the year (hence there won’t be any more announcements), we can already vote on what was, according to you, the top Fujifilm related product of 2022.
In the survey I will also include the Sigma 18-50mmF2.8, which might not be available yet, but as latest leaks suggest, it should come shorty. And we pretty much also know how it performs optically, as it is already available for Sony E mount and you can read the reviews at B&H Photo here and at AmazonUS here.
So feel free to vote the survey down below:

Do you remember when Fujifilm patented the Fujinon XF300mm f/4 and XF500mm f/5.6 a couple of years ago?
And despite my warnings telling you not to expect such lenses soon (if ever), there are still a good amount of people who believe these patents are a strong indication for that gear to come soon.
So I will never be tired to make disclaimers: in 99,999% of the cases those patents never see the light of the day in a real product.
In fact, in over a decade of covering patents here on FujiRumors, I have seen 1 patent out of hundreds become real… and that patent was actually found only after Fujifilm released that gear.
Does this mean that covering patents is useless?
Yes… if you see it from the point of view of gear to come in future. You better look at our rumors for that purpose.
Any yet, these patents are a nice way to let us discuss on what Fujifilm should do in future and if such lenses would be appreciated among the Fujifilm community.
So down below are one by one all the latest patents.
The AstrHori 28mm F13 2X Macro lens for Fujifilm X mount has now been officially announced.
You can get yours at Amazon here and Pergear here.
Funleader announced the new 18mm f/8.0 caplens (preorder here).
SmallRig is now taking pre-orders on several cages designed for Fujifilm X-T5. One that stands out from the others is the SmallRig Retro Cage for Fujifilm X-T5.
