Fujifilm X-H1 Review

Jared Polin reviewed the Fujifilm X-H1 and compared it with the Sony A7III. The review is 33:19 minutes long. He uses firmware ver 1.10 (and not the latest ver 1.11, which fixes some bugs).

If you notice horizontal flashing lines in the review, it’s not Fuji’s fault. The review was filmed with a Sony A9 camera.

Here is a summary:

Tamron 150-600 AF on Fujifilm X-H1 through Fringer EF-FX adapter (firmware V2.30 Coming Mid-August)

Tamron 150-600 AF on Fujifilm X-H1

Just a few days ago, Fringer released ver. 2.20 of their smart adapters for the Fujifilm X and GFX system.

Now they are already working on the next firmware update ver.2.30,which will be released in mid-August.

As a teaser, Fringer posted a video showing the Tamron 150-600 F/5-6.3 autofocus on the Fujifilm X-H1 using the Fringer EF-FX adapter (see video above or on Fringer’s youtube here).

One of the main critics when looking at the Fujifilm system, is the lack of autofocus third party lens support.

Well, all those nice AF adapters that are now on the market (full list below), should definitely weaken these critics, since more and more Canon, Tamron, Sigma and soon also Nikon lenses will work just fine with AF on your Fujifilm camera.

So DO NOT sell your beloved Canon & Co glass to quickly, when you switch to Fujifilm. If there is a lens you abolutely love (and is not covered by native Fujinon lenses), you might get one of those adapters to make it work on your Fujfiilm camera.

Share

There are more and more leather cases for our beloved Fujifilm cameras hitting the market.

Just last week we reported in this accessories roundup about the TP half leather case for Fujifilm X-H1. I share it again today, just in case you missed it.

Of course there are some more X-H1 leather case options on the market, and you can see them all at AmazonUS (includes BolinUS, Gariz and more that we already covered in the past here on FujiRumors).

So let’s talk about the brand new stuff today.

BolinUS just released the Fujifilm X-T100 BolinUS Handmade PU Leather Half Camera Case. It comes in three colors and also in this case you can access the battery door.

The Astonishing Efficiency of the Godox/Flashpoint AC Adapter – by Fujifilm GFX 50S Shooter Markus Klinko

Share

guest post & all images by Markus Klinko

When I initially began to integrate Flashpoint XPLOR H1200 into my workflow, HSS, portability and the long lasting lithium batteries were key factors in my decision to switch from Broncolor to Flashpoint/Godox.

With the release of the 600 PRO earlier this year, I began to add more units, enough to be able to light for any conceivable studio or location requirements. I may use as many as 20 lights for a setup, or just one, but for sure I like to always have a good number of spares available.

On a recent shoot with singer/actress Becky G for the cover of GALORE magazine, and another shoot for VOGUE, I needed to have various set ups ready at once. I used only a single 600 PRO inside a modified BRONCOLOR FLOOTER S for a series of dramatic sky shots in HSS mode, and also a late afternoon pool shot, but I needed 20 units to light a series of colorful, 2000s pop inspired studio shots.
