New Fujifilm Camera Remote App to Be Called “X-App”… but Will it Really Come in September?

When we shared the rumor about Fujifilm working on an all new camera remote App, we got hundreds of comments of pure joy.

And if you were wondering (like me), if the new App would also get an all new name so that we can get over the “Camera Remote” trauma faster, I am pleased to report that it will.

In fact, I have been told that right now Fujifilm is likely going to call the new app “X-App”.

  • I CAN HEAR YOU SHOUT: “Who Cares!”.

I get it… but to me, the fact that the App will get a totally new name is at the same time a strong indication that it is an all new and totally re-written App, which is great news!

As the App is not yet out, I would not be totally surprised if the final name would be another one. But for now it’s “X-App”. And in any case, it will surely be a totally new App with a new name.

  • I CAN HEAR YOU SHOUT: “When Will it Come!”

I have heard some claiming it will come in September, based on what a German manager supposedly said here. But since I speak German, I can tell you that at no point of the interview the manager mentioned any new App coming at all. It goes without saying that therefore he also didn’t say it will come in September.

So what I can say is that I don’t know when it will be released. I can’t exclude September, but I also can’t exclude October, November, December or just anything at this point.

But I just want to make clear that neither any manager nor FujiRumors have announced a new App coming in September.

So please, don’t be disappointed if it won’t come in September… but know that it will come for sure and Fujifilm is working on it.

Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 II Additional Specs: 67mm Filter Size, Weather Resistant and No Linear Motor

When Fujifilm started to release the newest f/1.4 lens trinity, they all got the weather sealing, a new optical design to resolve the 40MP of the X-H2 and X-T5 and they also got a linear motor for blazing fast autofocus.

Well, according to our trusted sources, the Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 II will follow that path, but not completely.

We got told this by trusted sources:

So what the XF56mmF1.2 II will lack over the the latest f/1.4 lenses is the linear motor.

We remind you that the current version uses DC coreless motor (the smallest motor). Stepping motors are better but bigger. So I wonder (not rumor) if this version has a stepping motor.

Before we make any judgment on AF, let’s wait for the real world reports, which will all drop on September 8 and we will cover live here on FujiRumors

Full Fujifilm X-H2 Specs Leaked, but Not All is Correct – I confirm 1/180,000 ES Speed

The full specs of the Fujifilm X-H2 have been leaked by Nokishita.

And it took no time for some to notice that they list the fastest electronic shutter speed at 1/80,000, and even less time for others to point the finger towards a wrong rumor I have shared.

But here is the thing: it’s not FujiRumors that is wrong.

I confirm (and it is 100% correct) that the electronic shutter will be 1/180,000 fastest.

Look, same happened with the price of the GF80mmF1.7, where FujiRumors leaked a different price compared to Nokishita, and it turned out we were correct.

And to be fair, that’s not even Nokishita’s fault. Fujifilm has just send out to press and stores the specs with an error, which Nokishita then simply copied. So it’s the stores that have wrong information from Fujifilm. No fault on Nokishita, who remains the greatest of all of us.

Anyway, 1/180,000 electronic shutter. That’s it. I wonder who needs it, but it will be there

Here are the main specs of the Fujinon GF20-35mmF4 leaked by Nokishita.

As we already told you, it will be announced September 8 at 2PM New York time along with the Fujifilm X-H2 and Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 II.

GF20-35mmF4 R WR

  • lens construction: 14 elements in 10 groups (3 aspherical lenses, 1 ED aspherical lens, 1 ED lens)
  • Minimum shooting distance: 35cm
  • Maximum magnification: 0.14x
  • Number of aperture blades: 9 (circular Aperture)
  • Filter diameter: 82mm
  • Size: φ88.5 x 112.5mm
  • Weight : 725g

It will be Fujifilm’s widest lens, dethroning in this regard the Fujinon GF23mmF4.

The Fujinon GF23mmF4 has also a filter size of 82, its dimensions are 89.8 x 103 mm and it weights 845g.

So the Fujinon GF20-35mmF4 will be slightly longer, but noticeably lighter than the GF23mmF4.
