Sigma Teases a “Variety of Lenses for Fujifilm X Mount Coming This Year”

I don’t know you, but I love teasers.

And yet, after almost a year of constant teasers, Sigma could also stop it and announce them already.

What are we talking about?

Well, of Fujifilm X mount autofocus lenses from Sigma.

Anyway, the latest teaser published by Sigma seems to indicate that our wait should soon be over. Here is what Sigma writes:

Stay tuned as I’m sure a variety of X mount are on the horizon in the near future.

Sigma also said:

We hope to see some X mount releases at some point this year.

I don’t know what to tell you guys. At this point I’ll just say I believe it when I see it!

And yet, I can’t stop being cautiously optimistic about it.

TTArtisan 40mm f/2.8 Macro Reviews

The TTArtisan 40mm f/2.8 Macro has just been released at a very competitive price.

With such a low price tag, it’s hard to even think it won’t be worth the money. And yet it’s better to check out some reviews before making any buying decision.

Down below you can find the review of Damian Brown and Christopher Frost.

Fujifilm Gear 2021 In Stock Check (and it Doesn’t Look All That Good)

Fujifilm has definitely not been lazy and has announced tons of gear in 2021.

However, most of it is hard to find.

I was extremely lucky, as I grabbed the last available XF27mmF2.8 R WR at my local store on the first day the lockdown ended and I could finally leave my micro-village and drive to the store in the city nearby. And for the Fujifilm GFX100S I had to wait “only” 5 months.

But how does the situation look like now? Down below the in stock check of all the gear announced in 2021.

GFX100S

Adorama has a few samples in stock. No other store listed below has the GFX100S available. The store Moment expect availability on October 15.

GF80mmF1.7

A limited number of Fuji’s latest speed monster is available at AmazonUS here. The lens is in stock also at Focuscamera. The Fujinon GF80mmF1.7 is expected to be in stock in 2-4 weeks at BHphoto. Adorama just says “coming soon”. Moment expects it for October 21.

GFX50SII

It was originally planed to ship by the end of September, but Fujifilm issued an official delivery delay notice for the GFX50SII with GF35-70 kit, so let’s see how this will change things.

So far all stores expect the body only version as well as the kit version to be available on October 21.

GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6

So far stores expect it to ship on November 30. Only Adorama is slightly more optimistic and gives us November 20 as shipping start.

X-E4

It’s on back-order everywhere. And the situation seems to be rather dramatic, as BHphoto and AmazonUS even stopped accepting pre-orders on it. You can still order it at Adorama.

XF70-300mmF4-5.6

It is back-ordered everywhere. The only time indications we get comes from AmazonUS here, who expects stock around October 20 and Moment here, who is more optimistic and hopes to be able to ship some samples on October 3.

XF27mmF2.8 R WR

This is the one lens every X shooter should own (and I own it), but you can’t buy it at the moment, as it is unavailable everywhere. AmazonUS even gave up and stopped taking pre-orders on it for now.

X-T30II

It is expected to ship on October 21.

XF 33mmF1.4 R LM WR

It was supposed to start shipping on September 29, but pre-orders are very high and forced Fujifilm to issue an official delivery delay notice. Now it is expected to ship on October 21.

XF 23mmF1.4 R LM WR

It is expected to ship on November 30.

XF18mmF1.4 R LM WR

Good News. This one is in stock everywhere!

BHphoto / AmazonUS / Adorama / Focuscamera

Fujifilm X-H2 with 40MP? Don’t Worry About Low Light Performance, as More Pixels are Better for That (but Not For…)

Fujifilm X-H2 and Low Light Photography

When I published the rumor, that the Fujifilm X-H2 will feature a 40 megapixel sensor, some guys paniced that low light performance will terribly suffer from the increased megapixel bump.

But don’t panic, that’s just a myth, that lived for a long time, but finally also DPReviewTV debunked it (video below).

TTArtisan 23mm f/5.6 for Fujifilm X Coming too?

FujiRumors has already share the TTArtisan lens roadmap for Fujifilm X and GFX mount (which includes the first TTArtisan autofocus lens for Fujifilm X mount).

The roadmap has been passed to me directly by TTArtisan, so no need to take it with a grain of salt.

However, now at the Pergear website here, the same TTArtisan roadmap was published with the addition of a lens, not included in the one that had been provided to me by TTartisan, and it’s the TTArtisan 23mm f/5.6.

I assume that Pergear has received an updated roadmap by TTArtisan, hence we will now include this lens in our roadmap, too.

  1. September: APS-C 40mm f2.8 macro lens with Sony/Fuji/Canon/M43/Z/L mount.
  2. September: 90mm f1.25 lens with Sony E/Fuji GFX mount.
  3. October: APS-C 23mm f1.4 lens with Sony/Fuji/Canon/M43 mount.
  4. November/December: 28mm f5.6 lens with Leica M mount.
  5. Future: Autofocus lens for Fujifilm
  6. Future: TTArtisan 23mm f/5.6

Fujifilm NP-W235 Discounted and my First Third Party Battery Fail

The original Fujifilm NP-W235 battery is now discounted at AmazonUS here (save 14%). It works with Fujifilm X-T4, GFX100S and GFX50SII.

Get yours here.

At the end of the day, the original batteries probably remain the best pick.

I have had great experience with third party batteries, but just until a few days ago.

In fact, I was using my lovely Fujifilm X-E3 with my so far favorite third party Patona battery, and when I tried to swap out batteries, the Patona did not slide out anymore. For some reason, it did swell, and I had to fiddle around to get it out. So far something like that never happened to me with any original Fujifilm battery. Maybe I will post a picture of that later on on my Instagram. But I think you got what I mean.

So, after years of great service, the Patona failed on me. And yet, I feel I can’t complain anyway, as the price is just so much more affordable, that I feel fine if it does not last as long as the original Fujifilm batteries.

The Mysterious Fujifilm FF210005 Camera is the X-T30II

Recently the registration for the Fujifilm FF210005 camera was spotted here.

We immediately told you that it is probably just the Fujifilm X-T30II, which is now being confirmed at an Indonesian certification institute here (via nokishita).

We already told you that it can happen that registrations are spotted after the camera actually was announced. It was the case also with the X-E4 earlier this year and that according to our sources there won’t be any more MKII camera this year.
