Fuji X-T2 & More :: 10 Things you Might Have Missed Today (Fuji Guy Billy Video, USB Charging Riddle & More)

And suddenly it happened…. the X-T2 became real, and all of a sudden the internet was flooded with First Looks and Information, that I’ve tried to collect in my Live Blogging here, adding a short comment to each first look.

But as much as I blog, the news stream is so big, that it’s easy to miss something, even though I’ve shared it on FujiRumors. So I’ll make a list of things you might have missed (and you can now stop sending me via email ;) ). And I’ll share also some things, that are brand new.

  1. Fuji Guy Billy First Look Video: I’ve shared many videos about the X-T2 in my Live Blogging – still ongoing. Now also the First Look of Fuji Guy Billy is online (video above).
  2. X-Pro2 + KAIZEN: As rumored, Fujifilm announced a new Firmware for the X-Pro2. It will be released in October… but knowing Fuji this means December ;). Anyway, the main course of the meal is the improved AF-speed, which will make it as fast as the X-T2. Press Release here.
  3. NEW ROADMAP + 80mm with OIS: As rumored, Fujifilm launched a New Roadmap and scratched the 120mm. The new roadmap includes three lenses: 23mmF2, 50mmF2 and the 80mmF2.8 Macro OIS…. Did you notice? I said 80mm”OIS“! Now here is the thing: I’m 100% sure that, at the time of sharing the “80mm OIS-less” rumor, this information was correct. But I also told you at the time of the rumor, the design was not final and Fuji could change plan anytime. And I like to think that the massive shitstorm the “OIS-less rumor” caused here on FujiRumors, might have made change plan at the Fuji HQ…. AND: the 80mm will be compatible with both Fuji teleconverters :-)
  4. X-T2 + 3.5mm micorphone jack Inpu on the camera. The grip has headphone jack.
  5. X-T2 + 4K: as rumored, you can shoot 30 minutes in 4K when vertical grip is attached. New Information: The X-T2 captures actually a bit more than 4K, and then sizes it down to TV resolution. Without grip you can shoot 10 minutes 4K. Oh… and it offers F-log profile (but not available in camera – although Fuji said this could be fixed via Firmware update). Shoots 4K with a 1.17x crop.
  6. X-T2 + Adobe: Adobe already supports the X-T2 files since early June! (source – riflessifotografici X-T2 Review)
  7. X-T2 + More Options for Continous AF: You can now customize the Continuous AF, choosing 5 Fuji Presets that are configured for different scenarios or make your own one.
  8. X-T2 + Price Chaos: Big Confusion here. The rumor I’ve shared said it will be cheaper than the X-Pro2. And it’s like this in USA. And in the EU? It costs 1,700 in Germany (see fotomundus24 store). The French site lemondedelaphoto says €1600 in France, but the official France Press Release says €1700. Why? Because of Brexit Fujifilm raised the price in the last second. And speaking of Brexit, the only country, where the X-T2 costs more than the X-Pro2 is UK. So you see why this time I was reluctant to share any precise price? ;)
  9. X-T2 + USB Charging?: Riddle: will the X-T2 (and the Vertical Grip) offer USB-Charging? There is absolutely no mention about it in the official Press Release. So was the rumor wrong? Everything is possible. Or maybe I confused something my sources said. In fact, as shown by Fuji Guy Billy, you can indeed charge the batteries, while they are inside the battery grip, but not via USB. You have to use a 9 volt adapter. So the batteries can be charged without having to be removed from the grip. But I’ll investigate further. UDPATE: It Works. More Here.
  10. Centered Tripod Mount: Some of you asked, now we have the answer: the tripod mount is centered to the lens

THE X-T2 LEAK

UK store Cameraworld just published its X-T2 product presentation… happy reading :)

Oh… they also say a new roadmap will come as well as an X-Pro2 FW update… and at the very bottom some EF-X500 images

From Cameraworld UK X-T2 Page

FUJIFILM have announced the ultimate mirrorless digital camera FUJIFILM X-T2 that delivers creative perfection. The Fujifilm X-T2 offers outstanding image quality with FUJIFILM’s colour reproduction formulated over 80 years, advanced AutoFocus functions and 4K high definition video.

On September 8th 2016, the company will release the FUJIFILM X-T2 – the ultimate mirrorless digital camera that uses advanced technologies to achieve premium image quality, outstanding operability and beautiful design reminiscent of traditional cameras.

The successor to the extremely popular X-T1, the Fujifilm X-T2 builds upon solid foundations to become the flagship DSLR-Style camera from Fujifilm. As part of the 5 Year Anniversary of the X-Series, the X-T2 is not only beautiful to hold, but rightly deserves it’s place as the premium camera for those who want both style and substance to the Mirrorless Range.

Fujifilm X-T2

The Fujifilm X-T2 combines the sensor and image processing engine developed by Fujifilm, with an ultra-sharp range of FUJINON lenses for excellent image resolution. Fujifilm’s colour-reproduction technology, formulated over 80 years, delivers images of unparalleled quality and realism, recording a subject’s textures, three-dimensional feel and even the atmosphere surrounding it.  Utilizing the same sensor as the Flagship rangerfinder-style, X-Pro2, the Fujifilm X-T2 incorporates a 24.3Million Pixels X-Trans CMOS III which produces incredible, pin-sharp results.

The X-T2’s compact and lightweight camera body is also dust-resistant, water-resistant and capable of operating at temperatures as low as -10°C. Its autofocus and electronic viewfinder performance have both been substantially improved, making it more adaptable than ever before at shooting a moving subject under difficult conditions, such as sports or wildlife photography, which had previously been considered difficult with mirrorless cameras.

For the first time in the X Series, the X-T2 supports 4K video recording. The Film Simulation modes, used for still images, can be applied to video to easily produce premium-quality footage.

The X-T2’s design is modelled after the “central viewfinder style” of the FUJIFILM X-T1, which has been popular since its launch in 2014. This proven stable form factor provides a camera that is perfectly sized with ergonomic dials laid out exactly where they are needed for excellent, intuitive operability.

Fujifilm X-T2: First Impressions

The X-T2 is to become the X Series’ flagship model along with FUJIFILM X-Pro2, the world’s only rangefinder-style camera with the Hybrid Multi Viewfinder, released in March this year.  The two models deliver unparalleled performance in their distinctive fields, with the X-T2 excelling in portraiture, nature and sports photography, and the X-Pro2 ideal for snapshots and discreet documentary photography.

In short, Fujifilm have listened to every comment made about the X-T1, and even the X-Pro2, and added the results together in this stunning camera that produces amazing results in every shot, but also reacts as fast as you need in any given situation.  Faster, stronger, and ultimately better results make this an ideal choice of camera for those who want the perfect photographic experience.

VPB-XT2: Vertical Power Booster 

Not just any accessory, this is THE must have accessory to maximise the X-T2’s power and take it to it’s fullest potential.

It is dust-resistant, water-resistant and capable of operating at temperatures as low as -10°C. It fits two batteries, bringing the total number of batteries to three, including the one on the camera, to increase the maximum number of frames that can be taken per charge to approx. 1,000 (Normal mode).

In the Boost mode, multiple batteries can operate at the same time to give a boost to camera performance in continuous shooting, shooting interval, shutter release time lag and blackout time, while also extending the duration of 4K video recording to approx. 30 minutes. It is an accessory that can maximize the performance of the X-T2.

Fujifilm VPB-XT2: Vertical Power Booster

The Grip features the shutter release button, focus lever, AE-L button, AF-L button, command dials, Q button and Fn button to provide the same level of excellent operability in vertical shooting as you get in horizontal operation.

The Grip also features a headphone jack to enable audio monitoring during video recording.

The Grip itself has battery-charging functionality. Using the AC adapter supplied (AC-9VS), you can fully charge two batteries at the same time in approx. 2 hours.

X-Pro2 Firmware Update & Updated Lens Roadmap

EF-X500 Flash

The EF-X500 is a hot-shoe mount flash with the maximum guide number of approx. 50. Its support for the FP mode (high-speed flash sync) means the flash can be fired at any shutter speed. This means you can concentrate on shooting when a faster shutter speed is required, for example, in order to use a near-maximum aperture to produce beautiful bokeh.

EF-X500 also supports multi-flash lighting. Set up multiple flashes to freely control light on a subject and background for a creative result. TTL lighting control is available with single flash and also in the multi-flash setup, so that you can start shooting without having to make cumbersome adjustments to light output.

Fujifilm X-T2 with Dual SD-Card slot (both UHS-II compatible) + Clarifying the Heat-Thing with the new batteries!

july 7

6 months of X-T2 rumors… and in a few days it will be finally here! But ’till then, the rumor work is not over.

So here are 2 more details I’d like to share with you (and they come from 2 different sources).

  1. The Fujfiilm X-T2 will have dual SD-card slot (nothing new), but the source says both will be UHS-II compatible (on the X-Pro2 only 1 is UHS-II ready)
  2. I told you several times about the new batteries, which should solve the heat issue and allow 4K shooting. And that’s what they will do: they’ll manage heat better. Now, it’s rather technical discussion, but it might be possible that the batteries actually don’t really create less heat, they just manage/dissipate it better. The source also gave me a more technical explanation, but I think all we have to know is this: the new heat managment of the new batteries will prevent overheating and allow 4K shooting.

So, that’s it. I’m quite exhausted, but still alive, and excited… and ready to push you to July 7, when, finally, the X-T2 will be presented to the world!

stay tuned,

Fujifilm X-T2 :: 11fps Autofocus Continuous Shooting in Turbo Boost Mode!

Tilt Two

Fujifilm X-T2 CH Autofocus Boost

Just yesterday I told you that the Fujifilm X-T2 will have a fast EVF refresh rate of 100fps in turbo boost mode.

Well, a trusted source told me that this is not all: in “boost” mode (selectable on the X-T2 Vertical Battery Grip), the Fujifilm X-T2 will also shoot at 11 frames per second in Continuous High Autofocus (the X-Pro2 has a maximum frame rate of 8pfs with live view)!

I know you have big doubts about the battery life. So I remind you that Fujifilm’s new vertical battery grip will take 2 batteries. Of course, without battery grip, the Fujifilm X-T2 will shoot at “only” 8fps, just like the X-Pro2 and use just the in-camera battery.

If you ask me, all this sounds very exciting… on paper! But X-shooters are often known to look less at the specs and more on the substance. So no matter which specs I share, we will all wait for some hands on experiences with this camera to see how good all these “on paper features” really work.

And I tell you… all the Fujifilm X-T2 First Looks will start hitting the web on July 7! And I’m here, ready for the Live Blogging! Don’t miss anything, and follow FR on Facebook and Twitter.
