Fujifilm GFX100RF Will NOT Have a Hybrid Viewfinder

We often refer to the upcoming Fujifilm GFX100RF as the bigger brother of the Fujifilm X100VI.

But there will be one crucial difference: according to our trusted sources (THANKS!), the Fujifilm GFX100RF will not have a hybrid optical and electronic viewfinder, but “only” an electronic viewfinder.

I guess this choice was necessary not only to contain the price (the hybrid viewfinder is an expensive part of the camera), but also to contain its size, because FujiRumors readers know that the Fujifilm GFX100RF will be “about as big” as the Fujifilm X-Pro3.

But for stuff that goes, other (and quite intriguing one) makes his debut on this camera, as we reported here.

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)

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.

As you know, I am a happy owner of the Fujinon GF50mmF3.5.

Well, happy until a certain point.

Because as I wrote in a complaint post here, the firmware for the GF50mmF3.5 had been suspended and remained so for many months (now years).

I did moan about it here on FujiRumors, but nothing happened.

Nothing until today! :)

Because FINALLY Fujifilm has released a new firmware for the previously suspended GF50mmF3.5 as well as the GF35-70mm.

And not only that.

Also the GF500mmF5.6 as well as every single Fujifilm GFX camera got firmware updates.

In the X series world, we get firmware updates for the Fujifilm X-T4 and the Fujifilm X-T50.

ATTENTION: Please update first the GFX camera firmware (no lens attached) and only after that you should update the GF50mm or GF35-70mm firmware.
