Fujifilm X-Pro3 Top Selling Camera on FujiRumors in October + Top Selling Lenses & More

TOP 3 SELLING…

Top Accessories / Bags

Top Fujifilm Series Cameras

Despite the crazy X-H1 rebate and the big X-T3 savings, the Fujifilm X-Pro3 stood its ground, and, at least here on FujiRumors, enjoyed a good start. But sure, once the launch-frenzy settles down, the X-T3 will claim its top spot again.

Top Fujinon X Lenses

Top Fujifilm GFX Gear

All Fujinon GF lenses (except for GF50mm f/3.5) are now heavily discounted. See the full list of discounted GF lenses here.

Turns out FR-readers prefer either very fast lenses (GF110/2) or the flexibility of zooms.

Top X Mount Third Party Lenses/Adapters

The fire-sale on the Mitakon 35/0.95 pushed the lens back on top. The Viltrox 85/1.8 remains stable in the list.

Top Software

  1. Capture One Pro 12
  2. Luminar 4
  3. ON1 Photo RAW

Capture One Pro 12 is on an unstoppable victory parade, being by a very (!!!) large margin your top choice when it comes to RAW editing software. Nothing comes close it, even though Luminar 4 is on a worthy second place (but still worlds away from Capture One Pro).

As I told you, I myself left Adobe forever, to go all in with Capture One Pro 12.

Fujifilm X-E3 Joins US-X Deals

 

Fujifilm decided to add the Fujifilm X-E3 to their current X/GFX deals.

The X-E3 is now rebated at AmazonUS . At BHphoto and Adorama, the very same combo is only $100 off. Also, you save $150 on the X-E3 with 23/2 kit.

I expect AmazonUS to end the extra discount soon, so you better grab it now, if you are interested in X-E3.

Fujifilm X-T2 Price Drops to $799 Again

 

Fujifilm X-T2

Fujifilm decided to add the Fujifilm X-T2 to the current huge Fujifilm X and GFX deals.

You can now get the Fujifilm X-T2 for just $799 at BHphoto. We had the same deal a few weeks ago, but then it went up to normal price again.

It might be the last big X-T2 sell-out, as Adorama doesn’t sell X-T2’s anymore, and I once the stock is cleared, you won’t find new X-T2 anywhere anymore.

NOTE: BHphoto offers freebies along with discounted X-T2.

Gear Talk Detox with These Fujifilm Images Roundup

Gear Talk Detox

Talking gear is nice and good, but using our gear is even more amazing ;).

I did try to remind this to myself, and hence, in the last few weeks, I have grabbed my X-E3 as often as I could and moved my a$$ up to the highest peaks, no matter how the weather was, to try to capture the beauty of my home.

And in fact, the shot I am most proud of lately, happened on such a cloudy day, that I was afraid my 4+ hours hike would be photographically speaking useless.

But despite the thick fog, I snapped my probably favorite image of this fall so far.

So I hope the images below inspire you to get out and shoot, too. The one shot you’ll be so happy with could just be out there, waiting for you.

And it doesn’t really matter, if all images shared down below come from our extremely prolific GFX user group. I just took them from the GFX group, because the last two image roundups all came from our explosive X-T group.

Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4: Lots of Distortion, Exposure Inconsistency and Yet a Recommended Lens

Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4

As a free and independent space, here on FujiRumors we report just everything, the good and the not so good, not matter if Fujifilm likes it or not, as my only boss are FR-readers, and I owe you the best service I can deliver.

Hence, today, in this Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4 roundup I chose to highlight some aspects of the lens, that are not really that good.

And yet, despite not being a perfect lens, those who review the Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4 still end up recommending it, as a great all rounder lens.

At the end, it’s all about finding the right balance, keeping in mind what’s the target group of a certain lens. And I guess in order ot keep size, weight and price down, Fujifilm had to rely more on digital correction in the case of this lens.

Which Speedbooster for Fujifilm is Best? Kipon vs Metabones vs Mitakon vs Viltrox

There are lots of adapters for the Fujifilm X system, including focal reducers, which work like this: you take a Full Frame lens, puts them on Fuji APS-C sensor, and the speedbooster transmutes that focal length back to full frame. It totally negates the crop factor. And the way the adapter works, we actually also double our light, translating 1 stop faster in exposure time.

Andrew compares four focal reducers or speed boosters:

Here are Andrew’s thoughts (video below):
