Fujifilm X-E3 Roundup

And while I’m still waiting for my new Fujifilm X-E3 to replace my faulty X-E3 (SD-card not recognized, sticky joystick), let’s enjoy another Fujifilm X-E3 roundup.

Of course, once I get my new X-E3 copy, I will let you know if I still have these issues or if the new samples works fine.

Fujifilm X100F

Weekend is roundup time on FujiRumors, and one of the roundups I’m always most happy to share, are the ones about the Fujifilm X100F.

So here is another little X100F zone, and in includes great feedback, as well as one negative one about the X100F joystick, which seems to suffer the same issue of my Fujfilm X-E3.

There is also a review about the very affordable L-bracket Fittest LB-X100F.

You will find everything down below… enjoy it, and feel free to join our X100 line camera group.

Fujifilm X100F Most Rented Fujifilm Camera at Lensrentals (#5) Followed by Fujifilm GFX 50S (#19)

Back in October, we reported how Fujinon lenses saw a 96% increase of rentals at lensrentals.com.

Well, they also published the results for camera rentals.

In their “Most Popular New Photo & Video Gear of 2017” list, we can find the Fujifilm X100F ranked Nr.5 and the Fujifilm GFX 50S ranked Nr.19.

It’s a little step forward compared to 2016, where we had the Fujifilm X-Pro2 ranked Nr.13 and Fujifilm X-T2 Nr.19.

Back to the Fujifilm X100F…

This camera was an unexpected success, and Fujifilm had a hard time to ship all orders, as they admitted here.

Surprisingly, though, there wasn’t much buzz around the Fujifilm X100F this year, overshadowed by the almighty Fujifilm GFX 50S and other popular Fujifilm cameras, like the X-T2.

However, here on FujiRumors, over the entire year 2017, I always dedicated regular and specific roundups to the Fujifilm X100F, because this camera simply deserves it. It’s a compact little powerhouse, and I still have to find the one X-shooters, who regrets to have bought it.

For all the 2017 rankings, you can check out lensrentals.com

Profoto Announces Support for More Fujifilm Cameras in Addition to GFX 50S, X-T2, X-Pro2 and X100F

Profoto Fujifilm Support

Back on November 18, we told you that Profoto will start shipping their Air Remote TTL-F for Fujifilm on December 18. Well, Profoto actually started shipping it even earlier, as we reported here.

You can pre-order the Air Remote TTL-F at BHphoto, AmazonUS and Adorama.

Currently the Profoto Air Remote TTL-F supports Fujifilm GFX 50S, X-T2, X-Pro2 and X100F, but on their official page here, they say:

“Other relevant cameras will be made compatible in the future through camera firmware upgrades by Fujifilm.”

I hope this means support also for older Fujifilm X-Trans cameras like the Fujifilm X-T1.

Thanks for the link Andrew ;)

Fujifilm X100F, Limitation and Liberation :: Best (and Cheap) X100F Accessories :: Is it as Good as it Looks? (X100F Roundup)

♡ Fujifilm X100F ♡

The X100 line is and remains my forbitten dream.

And I had a hard time recently to decide between the Fujifilm X100F and the Fujifilm X-E3. I went for the X-E3 and added the 27mm to it, trying to emulate the compactness of the X100F.

But still I miss the leaf shutter, the hybrid viewfinder, the build in ND-filter, the combined ISO/Shutter dial and last but not least, the incredibly sexy look of the X100F. And with WCL-X100 and TCL-X100 the X100F is a flexible mini-system that would cover most of my photographic needs.

The Fujifilm X100F follows the philosophy: limitation is liberation, or less is more.

So let there be another X100F zone today…. while I’m driving home from Prague in the night, on roads white of snow. What a fun drive :)

Why I Bought Fujifilm X-E3 (and not X-T20, X100F, X-H1)… and Why All this Hate for XF27mm? – FIRST IMPRESSIONS

I’m packing. I’m leaving. A long car ride all to way to Prague is waiting for me.

But before I leave, here is a blog post about why I bought the X-E3, XF27mm and XF10-24, as well as some initial feedback… sadly also something negative amongst it.

But first… make sure to follow our Fujifilm X-E facebook group.

DPReview Top Gear 2017 Awards: Sony Wins Big. Fujifilm X-E3 and X100F Runner-Up

via camerasize

DPReview Awards 2017

DPReview just declared their favorite gear of 2017.

The big winner is Sony, with the best product of the year, the Sony A7rIII and more awards. Fujifilm does not win anything, but is Runner-Up in the Midrange ILC (X-E3) and Compact Camera (X100F) category.

If I should highlight just one thing that I (respectfully) do not agree with DPReview: I think the Fujifilm X100F would have made a much better “compact camera” award winner than the rather huge Sony RX10 IV.

Here are the winners:

And the rest of the awards go to…

Fujifilm X-E3 Vs. X-T20 Vs. X100F…. and FF stands for “Fujifilm Forever”, or FujiRumors Shooting with Sony A7rIII :)

FF = Fujifilm Forever :)

*WARNING: this short intro will contain personal opinions that do not want to offend those of you, who think different. FR knows that what I feel good with, might not be what you like. FR also likes the innovation Sony brings in many areas, including digital cameras and sensor technology, and we have applauded their new products in the past here on FujiRumors (and I will be forever grateful to Sony for the Walkman :) ). And yet, I’m sorry, I still love Fujifilm way more, as you could already read in my Sony Specs (A7rII) Vs. Fuji Fun (X-T1) comparison.

This Sunday I am at SonyAlphaRumors‘ home, and I won’t miss the opportunity to shoot with his new Sony A7rIII. I will start now to use it a couple of hours, so my very first impressions are only about ergonomics… and Fujifilm, for me personally, wins.

I don’t like the PASM dial, and the tactile retro controls of Fuji cameras is, for me, way more intuitive. I am convinced that, if you give a Fujifilm and Sony camera to an experienced photographer, who never shot with those brands, that person will feel immediatly more comfortable using the Fuji, because all the most important settings are just right there, clearly visible on dials. Shutter, ISO, Aperture, metering mode, AF mode and a lot more can be seen and set even with the camera turned off.

Yep, for me it’s like many other people say: the Fujifilm just disappears in your hands :).

But I am sure I will have fun playing around with the Sony A7rIII and look forward to shoot with it today.

You can see the Sony A7rIII in my hands here :)

Fujifilm X-E3

When I shared the mixed zone yesterday, some of you wondered why it does not include any Fujifilm X-E3 related content.

Don’t worry, I didn’t forget that little beautiful camera.

In fact, I did plan a separate and dedicated X-E3 roundup, and here it is. Enjoy it :)

The Fujifilm X-E3 sells best in combination with the XF23mmF2
