Peak design has just launched a newly designed tripod on Kickstarter (Click here), with the goal to get rid of negative space and make it as compact as possible.
You can read all the details an check out the kickstarter campaign here.
Here on FujiRumors we already told you in November 2018 here, that the Fujifilm X-H2 will not come in 2019.
Now a new source told me that the Fujifilm X-H2 may not even come out in 2020.
The Fujifilm X-H1 is in my opinion a great camera, and with the new price tag, it is absolutely fantastic value for money. But sadly the Fuji X-H1 was not a financial success and let’s see what the future of this line will be.
TO ANONYMOUS / NEW SOURCES: Thanks for what you told me about the Fujifilm X-H2. It is not yet included in this rumor, since it’s fresh and I need to make my mandatory checks. But even if I won’t be able to confirm, I will share at some point. Thanks a lot.

DO NOT MISS IT: Mega GFX100 Announcement Live-Blogging on FujiRumors.com on May 23!!!
The Fujifilm GFX100 will be announced on May 23 and I have no doubt that it will blow us away in terms of image quality.
Beta testers all around the world are part of our Fujifilm GFX facebook group, and ready to publish images there as soon as the embargo is lifted. Join the group, to be there when this happens.
And yet, you should not wait for May 23 to join the group, since current Fujifilm GFX50R and GFX50S owners are hyperactive in our group and share an astonishing amount of stellar images. A small selection can be found down below.
Honestly, looking at what Fujifilm GFX 50R/S owners deliver already today, the Fujifilm GFX100 will have a tough challenge: raise the image quality by a margin, that people will feel it’s worth to spend $9,995 for Fujifilm GFX 100 (price leaked by Fuji manager here) instead of $3,999 for GFX 50R or $5,499 for GFX 50S.
I doubt that will be case.
On the other hand, the Fujifilm GFX100 is not only about better image quality.
The 100 megapixel GFX will raise the medium format bar in several other aspects, too: it will offer 4K video, IBIS, 50% faster autofocus, a monumental EVF (that attached on GFX 50 will not give any benfit, sadly), a faster processor and more.
At the end of the day, the combination of all this might justify the $9,995 price tag.
But soon we will be able to make up our own mind.
All you have to do, is to follow the non-stop FujiRumors live blogging on May 23. So make sure to join us on Facebook, Flipboard, Youtube, Instagram, RSS-feed and Twitter
And in the meantime, enjoy the selection of GFX images below.

In the early days of FujiRumors, I asked you guys if you think Fujifilm should make a monochrome Fujifilm X series camera.
And in fact, there was a point in time, when a monochrome camera was an option on Fuji’s table.
So I launched a poll back in 2015, but the results where not in favor of a monochrome option, and I have been told by sources, that Fujifilm dropped monochrome plans after having seen our negative poll results.
But now, 5 years after the original monochrome survey and looking at the market situation now, do you still think that Fujifilm should not make a monochrome camera?
I know, developing a monochrome camera takes away R&D from other projects, because it is not as easy as just removing the color filter array on the sensor, at least not if you want to make thinks properly and good.
There is a lot more development that goes into it!
On the other hand, personally I think Fujifilm should offer something different at some point. A camera that is surely a niche project, but that would undermine one more time, that Fujifilm listens to customer needs, even if those needs are very specific.
Because as Fujifilm super-boss Toshi Ilda said in this interview,
the more we think about photographers, the more different styles of cameras we have to create. Fujifilm always thinks: what can this camera do for this kind of photographer
the center of photography is not the camera or equipment, but the photographer
And I believe, a monochrome camera would fit perfectly into Fuji’s philosophy! And for my taste, it should be an X100 style camera.
But I’d love to hear what you guys think about it.
And especially Fujifilm would like to get feedback, since it’s a known fact, that Fujifilm does watch the FujiRumors community closely, and with a bit of luck, they even take 1:1 our poll results and make them become reality :).
