Earlier today we reported that Fujifilm has released these firmware updates for X100V, X-Pro3, X-T30 and XC16-50mmII.
The updates add functionalities to your cameras, hence Fujifilm released also New Features Guides, that I think you should not miss to check out and hence here are the direct links to the new guides.
As we reported earlier, Fujifilm has released firmware updates for the following X gear: X-Pro3, X-T30, X100V and XC16-50mmII.
The Sony a7 III and Fujifilm X-T4 are both amazing cameras. DPReviewTV compares image quality, autofocus. lens selection and more to try to determinate which one is right for you.
Here is a summary:
The results for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2020 have now been published by Fujifilm (Q1 report here, Q2 report here). FYI, the fiscal year in Japan starts on April 1 and ends on March 31.
It’s a year devasted by COVID-19, hence also Fujifilm suffered in some areas. But there are also good news. Let’s go with order.
The biggest hit in the imaging division has been taken by broadcast and cinema lenses. Not really a surprise, given many big events being canceled, such as the Toyko 2020 Summer Olympics.
Good news comes from the X series, where “firm sales” of the Fujifilm X-T4 and Fujifilm X-S10 allowed revenue for the third quarter to recover to the same level of last year.
A pity Fujifilm is still not able to decently ship the Fujinon XF50mm f/1.0, which still is mostly back-ordered. If they’d been able to match the initial high demand for that lens, that could have shown up with even better numbers.
Crossing fingers the same shipping-desaster won’t happen with the Fujifilm GFX100S and Fujinon GF80mmF1.7, as they also enjoy an astonishing high amount of pre-orders, and if Fujifilm will be able to deliver within March, then they will have decent imaging division figures to show for the end of the fiscal year compared to other brands (Fujifilm manager already hinted they are doing better than the rest).
The instax system keeps going strong.
These days I am catching up with all the content you guys shared me over the last few weeks and months, and I promised to share at some point.
So, after a big camera roundup and a big lens roundup, here is a X-Trans Raw Coversion film simulation roundup.
Why all this in such a short time?
Well, because soon Fujifilm will unleash a product-strom, with the announcement of:
And all this goodness will come on January 27.
Ahead of January 27 there will be lots of rumors, and after that, FujiRumors will cover everything you need to know about the new products.
So I am using this weekend of realitive quiteness to catch up. And I know there is still content you guys sent me that has not yet been shared. I have it all saved. And at some point I’ll share that one too.
I really do my best, but it’s a huge amount of content you send me and that I have to check out. And no matter how hard and how much I work, it’s not easy to keep up sometimes.
Down below you can check out today’s roundup.
Fringer has just tested and optimized the performance of the Nikon AF-S 500mmF4 G VR using the new Nikon NF-FX smart AF adapter on a Fujifilm X-S10.
Fringer has also optimized Nikon AF-S 600/4G VR. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work as stable as 500/4G on X mount due to the power supply limitation. The next firmware release, i.e. v1.10, will include supports for these lenses as well as some of the other big primes.
You can see the AF demo video as well as the full list of supported lenses below.
Every week I get many emails from fellow FR-readers, asking me if this is really all.
They look at the current X mount roadmap and the latest G mount roadmap, and they see only 3 lenses in total. That’s meager.
Then they look at our rumors, see that we rumored only two cameras, the Fujifilm GFX100S and the Fujifilm X-E4 and wonder if that’s all for 2021.
I diligently reply to all of them, but it has become quite time consuming. So let me address this question one final time here on FujiRumors, so that in future I can just copy and paste the link to this article and send it to those, who inevitably will make me the same question again.
You can now order the new Fringer NF-FX Nikon to Fujifilm X smart autofocus adapter at BHphoto here and at AmazonUS here.
At the time of this post, the adapter is supports the following lenses (list below):
One or two times a year, I like to look back on the rumors we shared here on FujiRumors, and see if I delivered accurate content or not.
Plus, I will share the remaining rumors that should materialize in 2021 with reliability ranking.
Let’s check it out:
The Fringer NF-FX smart autofoucs adapter has been officially released.
It’s world’s first smart adapter that support Nikon F mount lenses working on Fujifilm X cameras while keeping all the auto functions.
Close to 100 lenses or lens & TC combinations have been tested and optimized. They all support fast and accurate phase detection AF on latest X cameras. Please see this list for detailed models. More lenses would be added to the list in the future through adapter firmware updates.
You can see an autofocus tracking demo video in this article.
You can pre-order the Fringer NF-FX smart adapter at AmazonUS here, the Fringer Store as well as eBay here and soon also at AmazonUS here, BHphoto here and Adorama here.
