It boasts exceptional operability, producing high-quality images with the company’s proprietary color reproduction technology.
The X-E4 is a mirrorless digital camera that caters to a wide range of lifestyles and situations, making it a perfect choice for those who want to carry a camera around anywhere and anytime to enjoy photo shootings of an advanced quality.
The compact X-E4 offers exceptional portability, weighing approximately 364g*, or approximately 448g even when it is mounted with the standard prime lens “FUJINON Lens XF27mm R WR,” also announced today.
The X-E4’s beautifully classical body features the 26.1MP “X-Trans™ CMOS 4”** sensor and the high-speed “X-Processor 4” image processing engine, which are also featured in models including the X Series’ flagship model “FUJIFILM X-T4.” Its fast and accurate AF can attain focus in as fast as 0.02 seconds, ensuring that users capture decisive photo opportunities.

FujiRumors told you back in December that Fujifilm would have a major announcement on January 27 (and not January 29), and now it’s confirmed by Fujifilm ;).
There will be a Fujifilm X Summit on January 27 at:
If it wasn’t for FujiRumors, you’d be totally in the dark about what will be announced. But thanks to exclusive FujiRumors leaks over the last few months (thanks a TON for the help of our sources), we know that Fujifilm will announce:
This is the most updated list I have so far. But if there will be changes, I will let you know on FujiRumors.
If you enjoyed months of breaking rumors and leaks, then feel free join us and celebrate the big announcement party here on FujiRumors, where we will live stream the event and cover the announcement.

A while back, we investigated if the brand new compact IBIS system of the Fujifilm X-S10 would fit in the Fujifilm X-E3.
I took technical sketches of the X-S10 IBIS unit provided by Fujifilm and overlapped it to the X-E3.
We could see, that techinically it looks like there would be space for the X-S10 IBIS in the X-E3, and hence also on the upcoming X-E4 (if the X-E4 would have the same size of X-E3).
But today I have to report that, according to our information, the X-E4 has no IBIS.
I don’t know if this is just a matter of costs, or if Fujifilm decided to make the X-E4 even smaller than its predecessor.
Or maybe it’s the price we have to pay to get a flip up screen that still allows the LCD to be flush to the body like on the X100V.
So what, is the potential lack of IBIS a dealbreaker for you? Feel free to let us know in the comments.

Yes, I know. A mysterious FF200003 camera registrations has been spotted and is said to be announced on January 29.
But trust me, nothing will happen on January 29.
What you want to do, is to tune in on January 27, because that’s when Fujifilm will have a huge announcement day.
And don’t expect “just” one camera, the FF200003 to be announced.
In fact, I hear we could get all this on that single day:
I will continue to check the list, and I will let you know in case there is something to add or remove to it. Until then, take that as the “official” FujiRumors announcement list.
Anyone out there, who had a new years resolution to resist better to GAS in 2021? Well, on January 27 you’ll be seriously tested :D.
As always, if you liked months of breaking and exclusive rumors, then feel free to join us here on FujiRumors on January 27 for an epic live blogging.

Yesterday I reported that the Fujifilm X-E4 will have a flip up screen, similar to the one you see on the Fujifilm X70 and Sony A6400.
When I shared that rumor, I also shared an image with an X-E4 mock-up I made (not the real camera) and two images of an X70 with tilted screen, so that you guys can see immediately how the X70 screen works.
The image I shared was the one you see above. The two smaller cameras on the right show the X70 (and you can read it also printed on the top of the camera).
But for some reason, especially over on facebook, lots of people thought that this means the X-E4 won’t have a viewfinder. But what you see on the left, are two images of the X70 (it’s acutally also written on top of the camera). But probably, scrolling fast and giving just a rapid look at it, people misudnerstood it for a leaked X-E4 image.
And since 24 hours after that rumor, some people still say “oh, X-E4 has no viewfinder“, I feel I need to address this in a dedicated article. I mean, I don’t want anyone to go around in forums and spread the word that FuiRumors said the X-E4 has no EVF.

I confirm everything I said before: the Fujifilm X-E4 will not have a fixed screen and it also won’t have a fully articulating screen like the X-S10/X-T4.
Here is the real deal brought to us by our trusted sources:
The Fujifilm X-E4 will have a tilt up screen similar to the one we know from the Fujifilm X70 and from the Sony A6400.
Also, when positioned flat to the body, the screen should be flush to the body like Fujifilm X100V screen.
I am very curious to hear those of you guys think, who were considering to buy the Fujifilm X-E4. Is that a solution you like or you can live with? Or is it a no-go?
