BCNranking published the market shares changes between April 2018 to March 2019.
Sony sold less cameras but increased the sales value, meaning they are strong in the high end camera segment. All others brands are struggling.
And Fujifilm?
Well, don’t get fooled by the +19,4% increase in camera sales by Fujifilm. As BCN writes:
“Fujifilm’s sales were boosted by the strong sales of the digital version Cheki “instax SQUARE” series.”
So it’s once again Insax that keeps Fujifilm’s imaging division afloat. Just look at the top AmazonUS camera products ranking, and you will see tons of Instax products there.
I am afraid that, if we would get a separate report for Fujifilm’s digital imaging division, we would see rather negative figures also at Fujifilm.
Down below you can see Mirrorlessrumors’ summary of the chart:
Over the last few years, FujiRumors had to sadly document how Fujifilm was discontinuing one film after another, and raising price on others.
For Acros 100 lovers, the bad news came back in April 2018, when Fujifilm officially announced they will discontinue this much-loved film.
Hope came a couple of months later, when the news arose here, that Fujifilm was considering to bring back Acros 100.
Now Fujifilm finally announced, that they will bring back Acros 100 in fall 2019.
This is made possible, because Fujifilm developed a new Acros 100 II film, by replacing some materials that became difficult to obtain and by adapting the manufacturing process to the new material.
I do hope that Fujifilm can bring back other discontinued film by using new technology and materials, too.

I tell you this:
If I wasn’t the rangefinder lover that I am, and I’d had to buy a DSLR styled mirrorless Fujifilm camera today, I’d not pick the Fuji X-T3, not even the Fujifilm X-T30!
Nope, I’d go all in with the Fujifilm X-H1.
And in fact, for two reasons I might explain in a future article, in these days I played with the thought, to get a Fujifilm X-H1.
And honestly, at THAT Price to me it’s such a steal!
I know there is the X-T3 out there, but the X-H1 autofocus is actually pretty fast, certainly more than fast enough for my needs. The image quality is just as lovely as on my Fujifilm X-E3. The build quality just screams “made in Japan” from every angle of the camera. It has IBIS. And some of my longer lenses would certainly balance better on the X-H1 than on my X-E3 or even X-T1.
So I am officially tempted, especially considering that the Fujifilm X-H2 is still far away.
Because in these days something happened, but I want to come down a bit before and see how all this ends, or it would end up in a rant. And today it’s weekend. My nephew is coming soon to my home. And I want to come down and be in good mood :).
So let’s stop it here and go back to the Fujifilm X-H1.
Let’s give some love to a camera, that would definitely deserve much more success than it has, thanks to a dedicated X-H1 roundup.
