Fujifilm X/GFX Deals Ranked from Best to Worst Selling on FujiRumors

First off let’s just say that over the last few weeks, the by far best selling Fujifilm item is the Fujifilm Instax Mini EVO.

But what about the current X and GFX deals? Which gear is selling best?

I’ve checked it and so far among the FujiRumors community the best selling deals are:

  1. Fujifilm X-T4 (save $200): BHphoto / AmazonUS / Adorama / Focuscamera
  2. Fujinon XF 23mmF1.4 (save $200): BHphoto / AmazonUS / Adorama / Focuscamera
  3. Fujifilm X-T3 body (save $400): BHphoto / AmazonUS / Adorama / Focuscamera
  4. Fujinon XF 50mm F1.0 (save $200): BHphoto / AmazonUS / Adorama / Focuscamera
  5. Fujifilm GFX 50R (save $1,500): BHphoto / Adorama / AmazonUS
  6. Fujifilm X-T30 (save $100): BHphoto / Adorama / AmazonUS / Focuscamera

IBIS matters apparently and so the X-T4 comes out on top, even though the price on the X-T3 is just ridiculously good.

I am surprised to see the XF23mm f/1.4 ranked so high. Not because it’s a bad lens that would not deserve to end up in many of our photography bags. On the contrary, the XF23/1.4 was a trusted workhorse at the wedding I photographed this summer and the images I got were fantastic. It’s just that in about 3 months the newer Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4 R LM WR will hit the market, so I thought this would impact negatively on the deal. But it seems people are not hold off by that. It’s a great price for a really great lens.

As for the XF50mm f/1.0, which dominated the best selling lens 2020 ranking smashing the usually top selling Fujicron line, it lags behind the XF23mmF1.4 probably because the price of the XF50mmF1.0 was good to start with and therefore many people didn’t wait for any deal to get their sample.

The Fujifilm GFX50R suffers the competition of the brand new and also quite affordable Fujifilm GFX50SII, which comes with IBIS and a newer processor and makes it arguably the best pick to get into medium format.

Hard times also for the Fujifilm X-T30, dethroned as best selling mid-range Fujifilm by the excellent Fujifilm X-S10.

Fujifilm GFX: One of 2021 Most Praised Systems Gets a Roundup – GFX100S Adventure Film, GF110/2 vs GF80/1.7, GFX50SII and More

The year is ending, the internet is flooded by “best and worst” articles and videos, and at some point of the ranking the Fujifilm GFX system always comes out on the very top positions.

It happened for example with DPRTV here (who gave tremendous praise to the Fujifilm GFX100S) and with BH Explora here, who ranked both, the GFX100S and the new GFX50SII in the top 10 mirrorless cameras list for 2021.

Now, nobody can predict the future in the long term. So if the GFX system will keep up rising or not remains an open question whose outcome will depend on many things.

But if we look back on how it all started with the GFX system and where the system is now, then we can surely say that Fujifilm has set some solid fundaments on which they could potentially build up something very special.

So, in order to honor the big GFX year that we just had, we celebrate today with a dedicated GFX roundup that you can find below.

Fujifilm GFX100S and GFX100 Get Blackmagic RAW and New Features Guide for Firmware 1.20/4.10

Earlier today Fujifilm dropped a bunch of firmware updates, some more substantial, some just bug fixes. You can see the full list here.

The biggest changes come for the Fujifilm GFX100S and Fujifilm GFX100, which get Blackmagic RAW support.

This required Fujifilm to update the Owner’s manuals for those two cameras.

But there are firmware updates also for Fujifilm X-T4, X-T3, X-H1, X-T30, X-E4, X-Pro3, X100V, Fujifilm GFX50S and Fujifilm GFX50R. Make sure to check out all the details and download the latest firmware at our dedicated article here.

And even though I am not into video with my Fujifilm GFX100S, I will update my camera anyway, because who knows what Fujifilm fixed with that “fix of minor bugs” phrase. Sometimes they fix major bugs actually.

Don’t ask me why they do it. It’s a great news if Fujifilm fixes a major bug. No need to hide it behind a generic “minor bug fix” phrase.

LockCircle Cinematic X Cage for the Fujifilm GFX100S

I own the Fujifilm GFX100S and it astonishes me every time with its image quality.

But so far I haven’t shot a single video with it, and quite frankly, I think I never will.

However, that sensor, 70% fuller than full frame, is also astonishing video performer. Philip Bloom for example shot an entire documentary with the original Fujifilm GFX100. Gosh, some of you even mount a GFX camera on a drone for some epic areal footage!

And since the GFX system is flexible enough also for video work, there GFX cages out there, for example from Smallrig.

Now we have a new addition, coming from LockCircle, and it’s made for the Fujifilm GFX100S. You can see some images above and you find the press release, details and links below.

This cage is designed for high end professional medium format cinematography. So if this is your thing, definitely check it out. And since the GFX50SII uses the identical body, I guess it would work on that one too. But I the GFX50SII does not shoot 4K video, so I guess it is not as an attractive video option as the GFX100S.
