MEGA DEAL on Fujinon XF200mmF2 and More Coming also to USA (but It’s Ridiculous if You Ask Me)

The Mega Deals

Fujifilm Europe launched an absolutely stunning deal on the Fujinon XF200mmF2 with a €2,000 discount, as well as huge deals on other lenses.

I have been now told (thanks), that similar deals will start also in USA. The deals will include a massive rebate on the XF200mmF2, too.

I don’t know if also the Fujifilm X-T4 will be included, but the fact that there is a first $100 rebate popping up on the X-T4 body only, might indicate that the X-T4 will be included.

XF200mmF2 – Fit for Fujifilm X-H2

When Fujifilm developed the Fujinon XF200mmF2, they indication to engineers was simple: achieve best image quality, no matter what!

And I can tell you from my own experience with this lens, that you’ll get a ridiculous sharpness out of it. So now wonder it gets only 5 star ratings!

The XF200mmF2 is clearly underperforming on current Fujifilm cameras, and once the high resolution Fujifilm X-H2 drops on the market in 2022, it will finally unlock its full potential.

Considering the image quality and the fact that it comes with a newly designed 1.4x teleconverter, I always thought that 6K is actually a fair price for how it performs. And soon, with such a big rebate, I definitely call it a steal.

The Ridiculous Thing is…

Ok, so Fujifilm is going to drop a massive deal on the Fujinon XF200mmF2 all over the world.

But the ridiculous thing is that Fujifilm is launching a massive rebate on a lens, the XF200mmF2, that right now is mostly out of stock.

I mean, I’d understand if they’d launched a deal on a lens that is getting dust in the warehouses and they can’t get rid of. But adding a huge rebate on a lens that clearly is short on stock, well, I am afraid that will lead to biblical waiting times for those, who order it.

So, in any case, if you are interested in one, definitely order quickly as soon as the deals are available. At the moment there are some availabe at BHphoto here and one single sample at AmazonUS here.

TESTED: Can Fujifilm X Lenses Cover a Bigger Sensor?

Share

Fellow FR-reader Alik Griffin contacted me in regards to a test he made aimed to investigate one thing: is the Fujinon XF lenses image circle big enough to cover a larger sensor?

So he put put a bunch of Fujifilm APS-C prime lenses on the full-frame Nikon Z6 using a Fujifilm X to Nikon Z adapter to see what sort of image circle the different lenses produced.

Down below the results in short, the link to the full tests (so you can see exactly how much each lens covers) and some thoughts.

Aperture seems to be wide open on all the lenses.

Ranking The Best to the WORST Camera Rumor Websites (FujiRumors Included) by Camera Conspiracies

Share

Little weekend fun :)

Camera Conspiracies made a ranking of the worst and best rumor sites.

I have no idea if it is an accurate ranking, as I don’t read all rumor websites mentioned in the ranking so I can’t compare them.

Also, I know it is ment to be a fun and entertaining video, so I take the ranking with a grain of salt anyway.

And yet, I feel flattered that Camera Conspiracies put FujiRumors on top of the ranking. Not because I am on top itself, but because of what he said about my work on FujiRumors, as it’s nice to hear that the passion I have for Fujifilm and the dedication I put into this blog somehow comes over to you guys.

Thanks for the nice words, Camera Conspiracies. And my wife would like to thank you for calling her beautiful :).
