What to Expect from Fujifilm in 2024 (and What Probably Not)

Fujifilm 2024

In November we have shared quite some rumors (as you can see here). And not only that! In our previous 2024 outlook, we forgot to add gear that Fujifilm has already pre-announced to come in 2024 as well as give you a look into rumored third party AF lenses.

That’s why we need to update our view into the Fujifilm year 2024.

All the X/GFX rumors come from our sources, whereas the speculations are often based on hints and comments that managers gave in interviews.

Remember, Fujifilm will launch 3 or more cameras in the first months of 2024. This means there are still more cameras we have to (and we will) leak here on FujiRumors.

The Future Sigma and Tamron APS-C lenses in Patents – Vote the Lens You’d Like to Get

In July we wrote a very popular article about Fujifilm’s future based on patents Fuji has filed.

And of course not only Fujifilm is filing all sorts of patents. Also other brands do.

So out of curiosity I’ve looked back into which APS-C lenses Sigma and Tamron have patented.

Which of the ones above would you like to see become real? Vote below.

But always keep in mind: it’s not said that patents will materialize into a real product, as we explained more precisely here.

Out of the patented Sigma and Tamron lenses, I would like to get...

Fujifilm GFX100S MEGA-DISCOUNT Extended

Fujifilm has decided to extend its insane deal on the Fujifilm GFX100S until December 31.

FujiRumors told you from one of the most beautiful lakes in the Dolomites, that the Fujifilm GFX100SII is coming.

But in that video I also told you that, as an owner of GFX100S myself, for that price, with that discount, the GFX100S is still an excellent pick, even if the successor is coming.

Brightin Star AF 50mm f/1.4 Autofocus Lens for Fujifilm X Unveiled

Brightin Star is already offering a Brightin Star 50mm f/1.4 and you can find it here on Amazon.

But that’s a manual focus lens.

Now they have officially unveiled the Brightin Star AF 50mm f/1.4 autofocus lens for several mounts including Fujifilm X mount. They say it is “coming soon”.

Brghtin Star lenses are sold at Amazon here.

Ok, so I guess it’s to update our list of third party autofocus lenses.

BREAKING: Fujinon XF16-50mm Coming to Replace XF18-55mm f/2.8-4

We already told you that the next XF lens that Fujifilm will launch will be the replacement to the Fujinon XF18-55mm f/2.8-4.

And we also told you here not to expect an XF18-55mm f/2.8-4 MKII.

In fact, according to our trusted sources, the XF18-55 replacement will be an XF16-50mm lens.

I know what you think.

You think “that sounds more like the replacement to the Fujinon XC 16-50mm“.

But no, it’s not, because the replacement to the Fujinon XC16-50mm is already out and it’s this lens here.

And more importantly, the XF18-55mm production will be stopped once the XF16-50mm is out, making the 16-50mm effectively the replacement to the XF18-55mm as the main kit lens.

Personally I am happy to see it going a bit wider (16mm vs 18mm).

And while some might not be happy about the slightly shorter long end, consider that the XF18-55 is not a lens capable, wide open, to resolve all 40MP of the latest APS-C X series cameras. If the replacement, the XF16-50mm, turns out to be sensibly sharper than the 18-55, then you might lose some zoom range on the long end, but you’ll be able to compensate in part for that by being able to crop in more and still get a nice clean, sharp image.

I have no solid information on the aperture range.

As soon as I have more details on this lens (but also other upcoming XF lenses), I will inform you here on FujiRumors.
