Today, BHphoto offers a $100 rebate on Capture One 21. You basically get the all cameras version for the same price of the Fujifilm only version.
Capture One 21 got a recent update we reported about here. If you want to get a quick overview on which new features it brings check out the videos below. The one I love most, is the new styles brush, which you can see in the second video listed below.
Fujifilm India (and ONLY Fujifilm India) is teasing a big announcement soon here.
Don’t worry, it 100% won’t be the upcoming Fujifilm GFX we just told you about.
Keep in mind that India often annouced gear weeks or even a few months after it was announced in the rest of the world, like it was with the GFX100, which got a dedicated announcement launch event a few months after it was discolsed in the rest of the world.
Trust me guys… ;)

Benro’s Smart Electric Tripod Head raised more than TWO million dollars on Kickstarter (Click here to read what this is all about).
The campaign will end in a few hours.
Benro is respected company with lots of loyal and happy customers all over the world. I doubt they would destroy their entire business to scam people 1 time on kickstarter. Seems unlikely to me at least, what do you think?
It supports the following Fujifilm cameras:

The BCN ranking for the year 2020 has been published. BCN collects data of about 40% of the Japanese electronics and online stores.
Every camera company lost sales compared to 2019, however, Fujifilm did best, getting very close to 2019 in terms of sales thanks to the excellent sales of the Fujifilm X-T4, the Fujifilm X-S10 and the Fujifilm X100V. The only flop of 2020 was the Fujifilm X-T200, which is in my opinion the single best entry level camera you can get, but sadly it did not get the success it deserved.
This confirms what a Fujifilm managers already hinted here: Fujifilm did better in 2020 than other brands.
Now let’s look at the data.

The Fujifilm X-E4 is now in stock at BHphoto. You can get the silver body only version here and the black body only version here.
Not available, but I guess to follow in the next few days, at Adorama here and AmazonUS here.
If you want to get it with the lovely XF27mmF2.8 R WR, then you’ll have to wait a little bit longer.

When we told you that Fujifilm will launch a new GF zoom in the first half of 2021, many were sure: this has to be the Fujinon GF 20-36mm F3.5-4.5!
But where does that Fujinon GF 20-36mm F3.5-4.5 rumor come from?
Well, it comes from an internal Fujifilm roadmap we leaked back in 2017 here.
As you can see, everything that was on that roadmap materialized at some point, except for the UWA Fujinon GF 20-36mm F3.5-4.5.
But if you look closely, the internal roadmap says “GF20-36mm” or “GF100-200mm”. And, well, in 2019 Fujifilm announced the Fujinon GF100-200mmF5.6.
Why this intro?
Well, because we recently told you the following about the upcoming Fujinon G mount zoom lens that it will be:
And here comes the speculation (not rumor).
The Fujinon GF 20-36mm F3.5-4.5 would be a a 16-28mmF2.8-3.5 full frame equivalent lens (or 10-18mm f/1.8-2.2 APS-C equivalent), and usually such wide angle faster zoom lenses are not the cheapest on the market, unless you go with third party offerings like the Tokina 16-28mm f/2.8.
So either Fujifilm worked miracles and is about to give us an ultra affordable UWA lens, or the lens we are talking about is not the Fujinon GF 20-36mm F3.5-4.5.
I don’t know the answer yet, but if I should place a bet right now, I’d not put my money on a GF20-36mmF3.5-4.5 lens, but on a very affordable travel zoom lens, which will still be able resolve all the 100 megapixels the GFX system offers, but maybe be made more out of plastic and have a slower aperture.
Sort of something we know from the Fujinon XC lenses, although I hope it will retain the aperture ring, the lack of which would be a dealbreaker for me.
But again, this is pure speculation from my side. Not a rumor.

Well, this is am important update regarding the new Fujinon G mount zoom lens that will come in the first half of 2021.
According to our sources, it will be Fujifilm’s most affordable G mount lens to date.
FYI, the currently most affordable G mount lens is this one.
As you know, I just tried to make global economy recover by pre-ordering the GFX100S myself. I am torn between this lens and this lens. I absolutely need to find out the focal range of this upcoming zoom, as it could play into my buying decision.
For now, just drop your guess in the comments.
