Fujifilm GFX100RF Coming with New Crop Zoom Lever under Shutter Button

The Fujifilm GFX100RF is coming with more ergonomic novelties than we could have expected.

Not only it will feature a dedicated aspect ratio dial on the back of the camera, but our sources have told us that it will also have a “crop zoom lever” placed under the shutter button.

I don’t know you, but with these kind of rumors really get me excited. The more tactile controls it gets, the better it is.

Stay tuned for more rumors.

INTRIGUING: Fujifilm GFX100RF Rumored to Feature Unique Aspect Ratio Dial

The fixed-lens Fujifilm GFX is on its way, and it looks like it will introduce a fresh innovation to the Fujifilm X/GFX series that’s bound to catch the attention of manual control enthusiasts like me.

According to new information from my sources the Fujifilm GFX100RF will feature a new dedicated aspect ratio dial on the back of the camera.

Of course it is too early to judge this new feature/dial. We haven’t seen or used it yet. However, for those who appreciate a tactile experience with as many manual controls as possible, this addition has the potential to be quite intriguing.

But for now I suspend my judgment, even though you can call me intrigued by it.

Ricoh Beats Fujifilm, Firmware Love, GFX100RF Specs and More – Top 10 November Articles

Here are the top 10 articles for November. Interestingly, the rumor about the Ricoh GR IV and GR IV M is by far the most read article, which proves my point even further: we need a monochrome Fujifilm as soon as possible and we need a Fujifilm X70 successor. There is a huge interest for such cameras, and Fujifilm should grab a piece of that market share before it is too late.

BREAKING: Fujifilm GFX100RF First Specs: No IBIS, GF35mmF4 Lens and Coming March 2025

As we told you yesterday, an anonymous source contacted us with the details about the upcoming fixed lens Fujifilm GFX camera.

First off: THANKS for the help!!! And second: it’s all very accurate according to my trusted sources, except for one thing (and at this point you know what). If you want, we can chat 100% anonymously via Signal to talk about it.

So these are the first specs of the Fujifilm GFX RF.

  • Name: Fujifilm GFX100RF
  • 100 Megapixel
  • No IBIS
  • GF35mmF4 Lens
  • Coming March 2025 (it’s unclear if this is the date for the announcement of for the shipping… or maybe even both? I will let you know if I figure that out).

No IBIS makes sense, considering that it will be very compact for a medium format camera. In fact, we told you it will be “about the size of the Fujifilm X-Pro3“.

Also 35mm was to expect, as we always told you it will be a 28mm equivalent lens (hence 35mm on GFX). We also told you it will be an f/3.2 lens, but we were not sure if it was f/3.2 on GFX or f/3.2 Full Frame equivalent. Well, we can now say it will be f/3.2 FF DOF equivalent (hence f/4 of GFX)

BREAKING: Fixed Lens Fujifilm GFX Coming Within March 2025

According to our trusted sources, the fixed lens Fujifilm GFX camera will come within the end of this Japanese fiscal year.

We remind you that the Japanese fiscal year ends on the 31th of March 2025.

It will ship in 2027*
*just kidding, that would be way too fast for Fujifilm standards :D

RUMOR: Fujifilm GFX Fixed Lens Camera “About the Size” of Fujifilm X-Pro3

Today we have a rather important update regarding the fixed lens Fujifilm GFX camera.

Our trusted sources have told us that the fixed lens Fujifilm GFX will be “about the size” of the Fujifilm X-Pro3.

NOTE: our sources said “about” the size, not “exactly” the size. This means there will be a size difference, but it won’t be that big. On the contrary, they will be quite close in size.

How Many Cameras and Lenses Does Fujifilm Release Every Year? And What it Could Mean for 2025

Some asked us how much gear Fujifilm releases every year.

So we decided to check back the last 3 years (2024 included, since there won’t be any more announcements) to see what the current pace at Fujifilm is. Below are the results.

Gear released in 2024 – 4 cameras and 4 lenses

Gear released in 2023 – 2 cameras and 4 lenses

Gear released in 2022 – 3 cameras and 4 lenses

So, overall we see: we get 4 lenses a year for X/GFX system combined.

2024 was more focused on the X series with 3 lenses for the X system and only one lens for the GFX system.

As far as cameras goes, we can get 2 to 4 cameras a year.

What does it mean for 2025?

CAMERAS in 2025:

As of today, the state of the rumors as far as cameras coming in 2025 goes is the following:

If Fujifilm maintains the pace it set in 2024, there could be room for one or maybe even two more camera releases in 2025, considering that the 1″ sensor camera might not be counted in the lineup we discussed earlier, which focused solely on APS-C and medium format models.

LENSES in 2025:

Fujifilm has quite consistently released around four lenses each year, combining both X and GFX series models.

So far I have no rumors about future lenses, which means you have four slots you can fill in with your wishes. :)

If anyone out there can maybe give us a hint on future X and GF lenses, feel free to reach out to FujiRumors. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Overall, 2025 remains a significant mystery, but I’m hopeful that our trusted sources (and maybe some new ones) will be able to shed light on some of the unknowns and provide insights that will make us even more excited for what’s to come.

Until then, keep shooting, keep enjoying life… and every now and then, keep checking in on FujiRumors ;).

US Dollar Price for Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 II and XF500mmF5.6

We leaked the price for the Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 II and the Fujinon XF500mmF5.6 in £ and € already in this article.

Well, I have received information about the price in US Dollar, which is not yet multiple checked but I share it anyway, because the announcement is close and I don’t know if I’ll be able to get it multiple confirmed. So take it with a grain of salt for now.

But the price I hear is the following:

If accurate, then the price of the new Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 II in USA will remain identical to the one of its predeccessor. That’s not the case in Europe, where we will get a €/£ 50 price jump.

As far as the XF500mmF5.6, it should cost $500 less than it’s sibiling, the Fujinon GF500mmF5.6. That’s more or less in line with the pricing in Europe, where we have about the same price gap between the two lenses.

I have no information about the Fujifilm X-M5 price, but I’d say it’s likely to cost around $799, considering it costs €899 in Europe. But that’s just an educated guess, not a rumor.

BREAKING: Fujifilm X-M5, XF16-55mmF2.8 II, and XF500mmF5.6 Pricing Revealed in £/€

Here is the price of the upcoming gear in £ and €.

We notice a couple of interesting things:

  • I find the Fujifilm X-M5 gently priced. Even with kit lens you don’t go beyond the 1K mark in £ and €.
    Keep in mind: the Fujinon XC15-45mm has OIS, so you get optical stabilization with this combo
  • despite being basically twins (with slight differences in terms of weight and size as we can see from the press release), the Fujinon XF500mmF5.6 is a bit more affordable than its G mount counterpart, the GF500mmF5.6 which costs £3,499 in UK and €3,899 in Germany.
  • at launch, the original Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 did cost £1,099 in UK and €1,299 in Germany. The new version will come with a slight price increase in Europe (+£50 more in UK and +€50 more in Germany)
