Fujifilm X-H2S

Let’s start the week with a rumor, that might not come very surprising for quite some of us.

The Fujifilm X-H2S will have a flippy screen. We remind you the Fujifilm X-H1 has a 3 way tilt screen.

The Fujifilm X-H2S is the 26 megapixel stacked sensor X-H2. The high resolution Fujifilm X-H2 with 40 megapixel will be launched after the Fujifilm X-H2S.

BREAKING: Fujifilm to Release Fujinon XF150-600mm f/5.6-8 (in XF200mmF2 alike Color)

Thanks to our sources, we can now report the aperture range of the Fujinon XF150-600, a lens that has been initially leaked here on FujiRumors back in January 2021 and Fujifilm officially disclosed in September 2021.

According to the information provided to us (thanks!), Fujifilm will release the Fujinon XF150-600mm f/5.6-8. Also, it will be similar in color to the Fujinon XF200mmF2.

Back in 2021 Fujifilm did provide us with some technical sketches about this lens and we used it to make a size comparison to the Fujinon XF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 and the Fujinon XF200mmF2. You can see the size comparison here.

And to be clear, the image above is just a rendering based on the technical sketch of Fujinon XF150-600mmF5.6-8 provided to us directly by Fujifilm. So shape and size are identical to what Fujifilm already disclosed. We just have it rendered in white here and mounted a Fujifilm X-H1 camera.

More rumors are coming… stay tuned ;)

RUMOR: Fujifilm X-H2/S Vertical Battery Grip Options with Significant Price Difference

We recently told you that Fujifilm will offer two grip options for the Fujifilm X-H2 cameras (one of the cameras to be called Fujifilm X-H2S – first specs here).

Well, when we shared that rumor, the speculations went really wild. Make sure to check them out here.

Today we can add another puzzle piece to the vertical grip rumors: one grip will be “significantly” more expensive than the other.

So I guess those who speculated one grip will be black and the other silver, were incorrect ;). It looks like there is a lot more to it.

Feel free follow FujiRumors to find out more in the days and weeks to come.

RUMOR: Fujifilm X-H2s and Fujifilm X-H2 to be Announced Separately (X-H2S coming First)

Many were wondering if the Fujifilm X-H2S and Fujifilm X-H2 high resolution would be announced together on the same day.

Well, we can now say that there will be separate announcements.

And more precisely, the first camera to come will be the Fujifilm X-H2s with its new 26MP stacked sensor.

The Fujifilm X-H2 40MP high resolution camera will follow later on (on a different day of course).

BREAKING: Fujifilm X-H2S with 26 Megapixel STACKED Sensor

Fujifilm told us in September 2021, that in 2022 they will launch the 5th generation BSI stacked sensor camera.

Well, today FujiRumors can tell you with 100% certainty that the Fujifilm X-H2S will feature a new 26 megapixel stacked sensor.

So what, case closed?

Not at all, because as you know there will not be one Fujifilm X-H2, but two Fujifilm X-H2 cameras.

  • Fujifilm X-H2S 26MP stacked sensor camera
  • Fujifilm X-H2 40MP high resolution camera

So now the question is: will the high resolution Fujifilm X-H2 also have a stacked sensor? Maybe the 8K capable stacked BSI sensor that Sony already has for sale with 43MP (and Fuji would make effective use of 40 of those megapixel?)

That’s something I am working on and FujiRumors will provide the answer as soon as I can do it with 100% certainty and accuracy.

Fujifilm X Summit on May 31: Still Unknown if Fujifilm X-H2s, X-H2 high res, XF150-600, XF18-120, XF56MKII, GF20-35 Will All Drop There

FujiRrumors unveiled that the an epic Fujifilm X summit will take place on May 31.

As usual during Fujifilm X Summits, we can expect lots of gear to come. And in the past we also saw new lens roadmaps, firmware announcements, displays of prototypes and more.

So definitely X Summits are a huge event for us Fuji lovers.

However, I’ve already read comments all over the web claiming that FujiRumors said the following gear will be announced on May 31:

Look, a little bit I got used to the fact that some people make their assumption based on fragments of what I write. In fact, there are at least 10 rumors I’ve never shared about the X-H2 and actually people think I’ve shared them.

So today I feel I need to make another important clarification.

FujiRumors never said that all the gear listed above will be announced on May 31. What we said is that this is the stuff Fujifilm has surely in the pipeline for 2022 and surely some of it must come on May 31. But I have no idea if all of it will come on that date. Maybe yes, I certainly hope so, but my hopes are not rumors.

So I ask you a bit more of patience and I’ll update you as soon as I have solid information on exactly we can expect on May 31.

Last Deal Standing (But It’s a Fantastic One)

So basically all the deals on Fujifilm X/GFX gear expired.

Fujifilm is now offering one deal only, and it’s a new deal on the Fujifilm X-T3WW.

The price on the Fujifilm X-T3WW was excellent to start with, but now with an up to $200 discount it is quite frankly a crazy good deal.

What is the X-T3WW?

The Fujifilm X-T3 WW (WorldWide) is an X-T3 without charger. By removing the charger and simplifying the shipping progress into different countries, Fujifilm is able to save some money. Savings, that Fujifilm passes directly to us customers. And now on top of the great price, Fujifilm even added a rebate to it.

Would it be Madness? Selling X-T4 and X-E3 to get the Fujifilm X-E4?

There is this weird idea that keeps hammering my head.

It says: sell the X-T4 and X-E3 and get the Fujifilm X-E4.

Why?

Because the X-E4 would be the perfect fusion between the form factor I love (X-E3) and the power I sometimes need (X-T4). Plus it would have a two way tilt screen which I vastly prefer over the selfie screen on my X-T4 (even though in some radical composition necessities it can be very helpful).

So this weekend I will just make shameless private use of FujiRumors and ask what you think about this idea.

But let me be clear: this post is not to say the X-E3 is not a capable camera. I mean, I shot a wedding with it and it worked just fine. But the X-T4 is simply the more powerful tool and in some occasion this extra power can be useful.

So why am I still hesitating?

The reason is simple: I’d no longer have an X series camera with IBIS (only my GFX100S).

Now, I know some guys claim IBIS is for losers and it completely destroys the photographic purists experience. But trust me, when you hike for hours up a mountain (as I love to do), and maybe at some very narrow path you want to stop to grab a quick picture with a tired and shaking hand or you have your son on the your back moving around while you try to take a picture, then having the IBIS solution as an option is more then welcome. And if I don’t need it, I turn it off… easy ;).

So what should I do?

And yes, I know the 5th generation of Fujifilm cameras is coming. I will probably get one of those cameras, too. So maybe it would be better to wait and see what Fujifilm has to offer in 2022/early 2023, and based on that see which cameras sell, keep and buy.

I don’t know, I am confused. Maybe just sell everything and go for X-E4. Or wait a bit longer, see what the future brings, and then take decisions.

And since lately I am so absorbed by Fujifilm X-E4 reviews, trying to make up my mind, I will share a couple of reviews down below.
