So, we have received a rather intriguing rumor.
According to trusted information, Fujifilm is working on a new compact camera with a 1″ sensor.
I personally had lost hope to see a new 1″ compact camera, even though after the release of the – currently substantially rebated – Fujifilm X half I saw an opportunity for one. So I am happy hear from trusted sources that Fujifilm is working on one.
But here is where I have to be clear… and you should read carefully.
Our sources only told us that Fujifilm is working on a compact camera with 1″ sensor.
They did not tell us if it will be the successor of a known line, or a new camera, or something super-experimental like the Fujifilm X half.
So all we can do for now is to make random speculations.
So let’s do just that, because it’s fun :).
I guess the most obvious speculation is that Fujifilm could revive any of its 2/3rd sensor cameras with a 1″ sensor. So we are talking about a successor to the Fujifilm X30, Fujifilm XQ2 or even the forgotten Netflix star, the Fujifilm XF1.
I mean, Fujifilm already took the leap to 1-inch with the Fujifilm X half, and in a previous article I wondered whether, now that Fujifilm has this sensor “in the house,” they might seize the opportunity to revive some of their beloved discontinued 2/3-inch sensor cameras, but this time with a 1-inch sensor.
In fact, I even ran a survey asking which camera you’d most like to see come back:
In the survey, the Fujifilm X30 successor came out on top.
But again: everything I know so far is about a “compact camera with 1″sensor“.
Some of you have asked when the current Fujifilm X and GFX holiday savings will expire. Here’s the quick overview.
Most of the Fujifilm deals are running well into the new year and will officially end on January 18.
However, there is one exception you should be aware of: the $200 price drop on the Fujifilm X half is only available until December 28.
Fujifilm went super-aggressive with the GFX deals thanks to an up to $1,000 rebate which is even made better by the addition of a free CFexpress Type B and camera bag only at BHphoto.

Boryoza is working on the Fujinon GF to Hasselblad XCD adapter.
It should come out in the first months fo 2026.
With this adapter, you’ll be able to use Fujinon GF lenses on Hasselblad XCD mount cameras (for example the Hasselblad X2D II).
Of course you’ll still have the one main problem that makes every Hasselblad X-D camera not an ideal choice for adapting third party lenses: since it does not have a mechanical shutter, you’ll only be able to use it with electronic shutter.
That’s a problem you don’t have in the GFX world, because it has a mechanical shutter and it’s actually a fantastic camera to work with adapted lenses. In fact, in our Fujifilm GX group there is so much awesome work shared that is done with adapted third party lenses.

A while ago we told you that Fujifilm is working on a camera with a time-travel dial.
Well, we now can share what I consider a relevant update to this rumors.
As far as we hear, the camera will belong to this Fujifilm camera line.
