Fujifilm X-H2S

Let’s start the week with a rumor, that might not come very surprising for quite some of us.

The Fujifilm X-H2S will have a flippy screen. We remind you the Fujifilm X-H1 has a 3 way tilt screen.

The Fujifilm X-H2S is the 26 megapixel stacked sensor X-H2. The high resolution Fujifilm X-H2 with 40 megapixel will be launched after the Fujifilm X-H2S.

RUMOR: Fujifilm X-H2/S Vertical Battery Grip Options with Significant Price Difference

We recently told you that Fujifilm will offer two grip options for the Fujifilm X-H2 cameras (one of the cameras to be called Fujifilm X-H2S – first specs here).

Well, when we shared that rumor, the speculations went really wild. Make sure to check them out here.

Today we can add another puzzle piece to the vertical grip rumors: one grip will be “significantly” more expensive than the other.

So I guess those who speculated one grip will be black and the other silver, were incorrect ;). It looks like there is a lot more to it.

Feel free follow FujiRumors to find out more in the days and weeks to come.

RUMOR: Fujifilm X-H2s and Fujifilm X-H2 to be Announced Separately (X-H2S coming First)

Many were wondering if the Fujifilm X-H2S and Fujifilm X-H2 high resolution would be announced together on the same day.

Well, we can now say that there will be separate announcements.

And more precisely, the first camera to come will be the Fujifilm X-H2s with its new 26MP stacked sensor.

The Fujifilm X-H2 40MP high resolution camera will follow later on (on a different day of course).

Fujifilm Stacked sensor Patent (for Fujifilm X-H2S)

A patent has surfaced of a stacked sensor Fujifilm camera.

The patent itself says nothing about the Fujifilm X-H2, or megapixel or anything. It basically just explains the function of a stacked sensor in general, which we already know.

Also, they use a rangefinder camera to explain the patent… but that does not mean the next camera will be stacked sensor Fujifilm X-Pro4 ;).

We know that a stacked sensor is coming since 5th generation BSI stacked sensor camera. And we know it will be for the 26 megapixel Fujifilm X-H2S since earlier today (remains to see if also for the Fujifilm X-H2 high resolution).

The patent itself is an endless flow of technical functional details that do not say anything about what the camera is and its specs. But if you are an engineer and maybe love to dive deep into the technical side of things, you can find an except and the link down below.

Stay tuned… so much more is coming ;). Not complicated patents that do not say anything, but solid rumors that will give you a clear idea on what Fujifilm has planed to make Fuji X and GFX shooters happy ;).

BREAKING: Fujifilm X-H2S with 26 Megapixel STACKED Sensor

Fujifilm told us in September 2021, that in 2022 they will launch the 5th generation BSI stacked sensor camera.

Well, today FujiRumors can tell you with 100% certainty that the Fujifilm X-H2S will feature a new 26 megapixel stacked sensor.

So what, case closed?

Not at all, because as you know there will not be one Fujifilm X-H2, but two Fujifilm X-H2 cameras.

  • Fujifilm X-H2S 26MP stacked sensor camera
  • Fujifilm X-H2 40MP high resolution camera

So now the question is: will the high resolution Fujifilm X-H2 also have a stacked sensor? Maybe the 8K capable stacked BSI sensor that Sony already has for sale with 43MP (and Fuji would make effective use of 40 of those megapixel?)

That’s something I am working on and FujiRumors will provide the answer as soon as I can do it with 100% certainty and accuracy.

Fujifilm X Summit on May 31: Still Unknown if Fujifilm X-H2s, X-H2 high res, XF150-600, XF18-120, XF56MKII, GF20-35 Will All Drop There

FujiRrumors unveiled that the an epic Fujifilm X summit will take place on May 31.

As usual during Fujifilm X Summits, we can expect lots of gear to come. And in the past we also saw new lens roadmaps, firmware announcements, displays of prototypes and more.

So definitely X Summits are a huge event for us Fuji lovers.

However, I’ve already read comments all over the web claiming that FujiRumors said the following gear will be announced on May 31:

Look, a little bit I got used to the fact that some people make their assumption based on fragments of what I write. In fact, there are at least 10 rumors I’ve never shared about the X-H2 and actually people think I’ve shared them.

So today I feel I need to make another important clarification.

FujiRumors never said that all the gear listed above will be announced on May 31. What we said is that this is the stuff Fujifilm has surely in the pipeline for 2022 and surely some of it must come on May 31. But I have no idea if all of it will come on that date. Maybe yes, I certainly hope so, but my hopes are not rumors.

So I ask you a bit more of patience and I’ll update you as soon as I have solid information on exactly we can expect on May 31.

Fujifilm X-H2S is the Name of the New 26 Megapixel X-H Camera Coming 2022

Long time FR-readers know it: no, the X-H line has not been canceled. On the contrary, Fuji will make it stronger than ever by releasing two Fujifilm X-H2 cameras, one with a new 40MP sensor and the other with a new 26MP sensor.

We also recently reported that the name of one of the two Fujifilm X-H2 cameras will be Fujifilm X-H2s.

Well, we can now say with 100% certainty that the X-H camera featuring the new 26 megapixel sensor will be called Fujifilm X-H2s.

The second X-H camera will sport an all new high resolution 40 megapixel APS-C sensor.

The full Fujifilm X-H2S rumor recap can be found below.

DEAL ALERT – X-T3 WW is a STEAL

The Fujifilm X-T3 WW was already a fantastic deal when it came out. Now with an up to $200 rebate it’s a steal.

Fujifilm X-H2 and Fujifilm X-H2S will NOT have In-Camera Active Sensor Cooling System

Ok guys,

just a few hours ago we reported about a patent that showed an in-camera active cooling system (as used by Panasonic GH6, Panasonic S1H, Canon EOS R5C and Sony FX3).

Of course this generated a spyral of fake rumors claiming that this is for the Fujifilm X-H2 and Fujifilm X-H2S.

So once again let’s FujiRumors set things right and tell you that neither one of the two Fujifilm X-H2 cameras (one of them to be called Fujifilm X-H2S) will have the in-camera active sensor cooling system described in the patent and available on Panasonic S1H & Co.

So no huge fan bump on the backside of the camera with the grid to let the hot air out.

And you know what? Personally I am happy with it.

Speaking of fakes, a little warning: there is an incredible amount fake rumors about the X-H2, that goes from the one that said the X-H line had been canceled to the one we have debunked today. The only correct rumors I’ve read are the ones copied from FujiRumors without quoting FR ;).

I am aware that all these fakes could lead to confusion. And since nobody likes to deliberately get fooled and confused, I’d like to express my huge thanks to our sources, who make sure we don’t get mislead and that if we talk rumors, then at least reliable ones.

Two more things to look forward:

  • there will be lots more rumors here on FujiRumors
  • Nokishita is still active, just elsewhere. So when I am done with my rumors, I’ll hand over to Nokishita to share press release, full specs, etc

Until then, check out the updated X-H2 rumors below.

Fujifilm Patents Active Sensor Cooling System for Cameras with IBIS (but Really for Fujifilm X-H2 and Fujifilm X-H2S?)

Fujifilm has patented an active sensor cooling system using fan and heat sink for cameras featuring IBIS.

These kind of cooling systems are generally used for video centric cameras like the Panasonic GH6 and S1H, the Canon EOS R5C and the Sony FX3.

I know what you are thinking: this must be for the Fujifilm X-H2, which everybody expects to be the video-centric camera of Fujifilm.

But I have learned one thing in all these years: my speculations are not nearly as accurate as the rumors from our sources. This is why I won’t even try it, and just let it there as a patent, waiting for our sources to give us some more solid indication on the Fujifilm X-H2 cameras.

  • Applicant: Fujifilm Corporation
    Published by:P2022055674
    Application number: P 2020163229
    Released:2022-04-08
    Name of invention: Imaging equipment and imaging method
  • One embodiment of this disclosure technology is to provide an imaging device and imaging method with image stabilization mechanism.
  • In recent years, image sensors may shoot high-quality videos for a long time. It is preferable to use the imaging device in the appropriate temperature range. Shooting high-quality videos consumes a lot of power, and the heat generation from the imaging device itself exceeds the appropriate temperature range. In long-term high-quality video recording, the imaging device works with protection functions such as forcing the shooting to for the protection of the device itself and the safety of the photographer, such as forcing the shooting to exceed the appropriate temperature range. Therefore, it may not be possible to secure enough shooting time for shooting high-quality videos.
  • In addition, when shooting repeatedly, it is not possible to secure enough shooting time when there is no time interval when the temperature of the imaging device that rose when used last time drops to the appropriate range. In addition, in the imaging device with image stabilization function, it is difficult to dissipate heat generated from the image sensor because the heating image sensor is constantly floating at the time of shooting.
  • In light of the situation described above, in this form, we propose an imaging device and imaging method that can rapidly cool the image sensor and secure the shooting time in the appropriate temperature range after the shooting is over or using the image stabilization function.
  • The imaging unit 100 has three heat pipes 180A to 180C. Heat pipes 180A to 180C are heat transport bodies that transport heat. The end of the heat pipe 180A to 180C is installed in sheet metal 108C of the refrigerator 108. In addition, the other end of the heat pipe 180A to 180C is installed in the heat sink 110. As a result, the heat emitted by the cooling system 108 can be transported from 180A to 180C and cooled by the forced cooling mechanism 46 of the destination.
  • Using heat pipes 180A to 180C, the heat generated from the cooling system 108 can be transported and cooled with the forced cooling mechanism 46 of the destination. As a result, there is no need to prepare a forced cooling system with sheet metal 108C of the cooling system 108, and it is possible to make effective use of the space inside the imaging device 2 of the image sensor 20.
