Share

Hear hear… another FujiRumors prophecy is about to become true :)

9 days ago we told you that Fujifilm will launch 45mm and 18mm macro extension tubes for the Fujifilm GFX 50S.

Well, now nokishita leaked the first images, and it confirms our rumor (thanks again to the source).

They also leaked one more GF 250mm F4 image, which I will share below. They say shipping will start late May.

All this goodness will be announced tomorrow, April 12.

Of course for the next 2 days I quit my normal life and sleep and will non stop live blog 48 hours (or more if necessary), in order to keep you guys update in real time non stop.

There will be a huge LIVE BLOGGING, so make sure to stay tuned on FR via Facebook, RSS-feed, Instagram, Youtube and Twitter.

Note: a mate of mine asked what Helicon Focus did, which RAW processor I used, and why I wasn’t clear about anything in the above video. I’m new to YouTube. Lots to learn. Many thanks for the constructive criticism. The RAW processors I used were Lightroom and XTransformer. Helicon Focus and Affinity Photo handledthe compositing.

Before we get started, Patrick has been kind enough to allow me to publish the following articles on Fuji Rumors.

Prior to purchasing the GFX I was using a Hasselblad digital back duo (CFV-50 and CFV-50c) attached to a Linhof M679cs via a sliding back. Great camera, stability like Gibraltar, amazing results. The backs were great, but accurately focusing a digital back on a slider or in live view was slow, fraught with computer-back-and-forthing, and in the end not worth it. The GFX’s EVF, LCD, and wireless tethering, as sub-optimal as they can be, are giant usability steps up from the system I previously used.

Fujifilm X100F Firmware Details Leaked… and Don’t Panic Regarding the Fujifilm X-T20 Firmware Update

Share

2 days ago here on FujiRumors we broke the news, that 6 Fujifilm cameras will get a firmware update soon. Included in our list was also the Fujifilm X100F.

The day after, nokishita leaked the details of the updates, but the Fujifilm X100F was not included in the list.

Just now, though, nokishita updated the list with the X100F firmware. Here are the details of the update

X100F Firmware Ver.2.10 -due April, 2018
Enlarged and customizable indicators or information
The upgrade allows users to enlarge indicators and information in the viewfinder and/or LCD monitor. This upgrade will also enable users to customize the location of where the information is shown on the display.

The X100F firmware can be considered minor, especially compared to the other upcoming massive updates. But Fujifilm notoriously never covers the X100 line with lots of Kaizen love, even though it was the original X100 to start all the “Kaizen-buzz” back in the days.

But with the growing number of camera models, Fujifilm had to make decisions which cameras they can keep up covering with Kaizen love, and which one not… and the X100 line had to be sacrificed.

If you want to see what the firmware update details of the Fujifilm GFX 50S, X-E3, X-T2, X-Pro2 and X-H1, check out this post.

Also, I notice many X-T20 owners now panic, because the X-T20 is not mentioned in the list. But keep in mind these are only announcements of upcoming firmware updates. And the one for the X-T20 has already been announced (and it’s massive!). That’s why it is not included in the list.

The X-T20 firmware will come, according to Fujifilm, in early April… so it can’t be that long anymore ;)

Fujinon GF 250mm F4 to Cost “Around $3,500” and First Hands-On Reports

Share

We now have the first report of the Fujinon GF 250mm F4 shared at our GFX facebook group here.

The information was told to our group member Gulliermo (check out his instagram and his website guillermojackson.art) during a photography fair by a Fuji rep.

The price of the Fujinon GF 250mm F4 should be “around 3,500” and with 1.4x teleconverter “around $4,000“.

First impressions:

“Performance is top notch, on camera and zooming in it’s as sharp as the 110mm, super sharp! AF speed was very good, same as the 120mm macro and there wasn’t many light available.

The image stabilizer is impressive, I was shooting iso1600 1/40 of a sec f4 handheld with amazing results”

The discussion just started… make sure to follow it here.
