Fujifilm X-T2 with XF18-55 and Vertical Grip $1,919 Only

Cameta Camera, has currently probably the best deals on Fujifilm X-T2. For example, they are offering the Fujifilm X-T2 with XF18-55 and vertical grip for $1,919 only (at BHphoto and AmazonUS the same combo costs $2,125).

NOTE: I don’t know this store and I’m not affiliated with Cameta Camera, but I see they are an authorized Fuji USA dealer, and the items come with 1 year Fuji warranty (and you can add an additional 3 year “Cameta Care” warranty).

Overall, this is the best time of the year to save on Fujifilm X and GFX gear. Check out the full list of savings below.

Fujinon XF80mmF2.8: Sharper is Impossible. Better Than XF90mm… but is it Too Sharp for Portraits?

Up to date, the XF90mmF2 and XF16mmF1.4 are considered to be Fujifilm sharpest lenses on the market. But the Fujinon XF80mmF2.8 is going to raise the bar even higher. That’s at least what we can hear at the German ishootyou youtube, where they already had the opportunity to test the lens.

Interesting to note is that they consider the XF80mm to be too sharp for portraits. Really, how can sharpness be a problem? The reviewer compares it to spicy food. If you make your meal too spicy, you don’t get a nice well-balanced organic taste. A too spicy meal distracts your attention from the real taste of the meal to its spiciness only.

Watch it all here (with image samples), but if you are in a hurry now or do not understand German, you know… I’m a kind guy… so I translated the main points for you down below :)

  • Macro lenses are great allrounders, also for filming, and the XF80mm has great OIS
  • OIS is so good, that you can shoot Macro handheld. Fujifilm has the best OIS that the reviewer knows of
  • Extremely Sharp. Maybe even too sharp for portraits
  • Bokeh on XF90mm is better (round bokeh bolls). On XF80mm it’s has more an egg-form bokeh
  • The clinical sharpness and not optimal bokeh, make the XF90mm still the better choice for portraits. But it’s excellent for Macro, video and still a flexible tool
  • The 80mm raises the bar… and one can only look forward to the performance of future XF lenses

And here are a few more XF80mm reivews and hands on.

  • I get emails from readers linking to this Fujifilm PDF about the Fujifilm Macro extension tubes. I know, we already reported about it back October 12 here :) . The XF 80mm Macro is in the table for MCEX-tubes. With MCEX-16 magnification will be x1.27 at minimal 8cm distance between lens and object.

Fujifilm GFX and X Series Deals – Save Up to $1,550 with Secret Deal at BHphoto

 

The Fujinon XF16mmF1.4 is now $100 off and currently the best selling XF lens at BHphoto

The future of the Deals

The Fujifilm GFX deals are very good, especially the secret GFX deal on BHphoto, where you can save up to $1,550 (instead of “just” $1,000 as officially listed by Fujifilm and other stores).

But why isn’t Fujifilm offering the same huge deal also on the X-system?

Well, we better get used to it. Only a few years ago, hardly anyone owned Fujifilm X, and Fujifilm had to offer terrific deals to “convince” people to buy into the X system. But now, that Fuji X has become popular, there is simply no real need to launch such agressive deals anymore.

Hence, deals on X-system have become more rare, and when they come, like now, they will be less amazing than in the past.

And yet… you can still save up to $200 on X-gear…

… which is still better than a punch in the face ;)

Fujinon Lens Rentals Skyrocketed Showing 96% Increase in 2017

Things seem to go quite well for Fujifilm.

Their imaging division is healthy and registers “substantial increase in income“, some managers dream of 50% market share, and Fujifilm’s declared goal is to become Nr.1 mirrorless premium camera manufacturer within 2019.

Considering that from 2011 to 2013 Fujifilm sold overall only 700,000 X-series cameras, I’d say the company has made quite some significant step forwards from 2014 to 2017. The camera that changed everything, was the Fujifilm X-T1, which is now discontinued, and I dedicated an emotial farewell in this article.

And now we have some more significant data, that show that more and more people are looking at the Fuji X system.

According to data send out by lensrentals from the their press contact and reported by fstoppers, the Fujifilm X-system has seen huge rental increase in 2017. Fstoppers writes:

Fuji lenses skyrocketed, showing 96 percent more rentals. Sony lenses also increased 22 percent, while Canon and Nikon decreased 8 and 10 percent, respectively.”

Some more significant data:

Thanks to FR reader VatArt Photo for spotting the news and sharing with us :)

A lot of the Fujinon glass (and cameras) is right now in offer, as well as Fujifilm GFX gear. Check it out below.
