Fujifilm X-shooter Surachart Chandenduang is testing the brand new XF200mmF2. He is photographing ice skaters and takes some portraits on the beach with the 200/2.
In his camera bag there is also a Nikon D5 with 70-200, and you can see it compared to the X-T2 with XF200 on his facebook page here.

Rico Pfirstinger has published a comparison between the old 1.4x teleconverter and new 1.4x teleconverter mounted on the Fujinon XF200mmF2 on his flickr here (where you will find many more XF200/2 samples).
Down below you see the results zoomed in 200%, and the new teleconverter delivers clearly superior resutls.
As I told you already months before announcements, the old 1.4x teleconverter was designed to work well only down until f/2.8, hence Fujifilm needed to design a new converter that works well also stopped down at f/2.
The new 1.4x Teleconverter is properly supported only by the XF200mmF2, so if you use it on other Fujinon lenses, it won’t work well.
August 23 is the big day!
And I am not talking of the Nikon Z mirrroless announcement, and not even of the Panasonic LX100II.
Nope… on August 23 all my eyes will be on the Fujifilm XF10, which will finally start shipping, at least so says AmazonUS here. :)

Back in mid-July, I shared a rumor by a new source, that the Fujifilm X-T3 will have a new film simulation.
I told you that it was not confirmed by trusted sources, so you should take it with a gran of salt.
Well, now trusted sources told me, that there is no new film simulation on the Fujifilm X-T3 [ETERNA will obviously be included, but that’s an “old” film simulation, introduced with X-H1].
In the past we have seen Fujifilm cameras getting new film simulations via firmware updates, so maybe at some point in the future also the X-T3 will get a new one (the new processor certainly allows it). But for now, it hear there is none.

have a fantastic day :)
P.S.: To all those copycat sites, who copy and paste the rumored X-T3 specs list from FujiRumors (without giving credits to FR), please edit the list, because you copied also our wrong rumors ;). But it’s nice to know that you trust me blindly ?
