Fujiiflm has launched X and MKX deals all over Europe.
Lots of great deals also on 5th generation gear, but the one that probably stands out the most for me is the massive £230 rebate on the Fujifilm X-H2S in UK.
NOTE: if you grab your X Series Deal at your local Amazon, make sure it is shipped and sold by Amazon to qualify for the cashback.
Fujifilm has released new firmware updates for the Fujifilm X-T5, X-H2, X-H2S, X-S20, GFX100S, GFX100, GFX50SII and GFX50R.
You can find all details and download links down below.
For this weekend we have a roundup covering all the latest and greatest 5th generation Fujifilm gear.
Fujifilm has released new firmware updates for the Fujifilm X-T5, X-H2, X-H2S, X-E4 and X-S10.
You can find all details and download links down below.
Fellow FR-reader Sven is specialized in IR and Astro conversions, and he recently did a fullspectrum conversion on his Fujifilm X-H2.
Here some excerpts regarding the teardown:
As for the IR performance, they write:
As well as a firmware request:

FujiRumors has already told you that Yongnuo is teasing the Yongnuo 50mm F1.8X DA DSM PRO X Mount lens coming next.
And not only that! We have also shared lots of images of this (and four other) upcoming Yongnuo X mount lenses.
Now an image appeared on the Chinese social media Weibo (and spotted by the Japanese website Asobinet) showing the lens mounted on the Fujifilm X-H2S (you can see the image above).
If the google translation didn’t mess it up, I think Yongnuo said on their Weibo account that it will come in June.
And also, they say that it will use the same optical design of the Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 for Sony E Mount, with the addition of an aperture ring (you can read it here).
Now I don’t know if it’s because it’s midnight here on the beautiful road of wine and my tired eyes are overseeing something, but I don’t really notice an aperture ring (well visible though in many of their other upcoming X mount lenses).
Anyway, if they did add the aperture ring, than that’s definitely a nice touch and I wish other lens manufacturers would have done the same when they adapted their Sony E mount glass to the X system.
The complete list of autofocus lenses Yongnuo is planing to launch is:
Some of these new Yongnuo lenses are going to have some stiff competition:
Yongnuo 11mm f/1.8 vs…
Yongnuo 23mm f/1.4 vs…
Yongnuo 33mm f/1.4 vs…
Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 vs…
Yongnuo 56mm f/1.4 vs…
Good luck Yongnuo!

Recently I asked you which Fujifilm X camera you own.
The goal of the survey was to find out how popular the newest 5th generation X series cameras have become among the FujiRumors community.
The results surprised. And not because the Fujifilm X-T5 sold well. That was to expect. But because despite being launched just a few months ago, the Fujifilm X-T5 is already the most owned Fujifilm X series camera among this community.
And more impressively: this is the first time that any Fujifilm X-T camera has some serious internal competition in the higher end Fujifilm segment thanks to the Fujifilm X-H2. But despite this stiff internal competition, the X-T5 made it to the top as your most owned camera in just a few months.
Speaking of X-H2, it is 7th in the ranking, showing the huge popularity of the 40MP X-Trans V sensor.
In the battle X-H2S and X-H2, the X-H2S wins and grabs the 6th spot, but with only a few votes of advantage.
The first non-XT camera in the ranking is the Fujifilm X100V on the 5th spot, slightly ahead of the X-H2S. The next rangefinder camera is the X-Pro2 on the 9th spot
NOTE: The popularity of camera (lines) on FujiRumors is not indicative for the overall popularity on the worldwide market.

The Latest
Fujifilm has released firmware updates for 13 Fujifilm cameras.
The updates are mostly to add support for the brand new Fujifilm XApp, but worth a special mention are:
Down below you’ll find the links where you can check out all the details and download the firmware.
Pretty much exactly one year ago, Fujifilm introduced their 5th generation platform (X-Processor 5 and X-Trans V) with the Fujifilm X-H2S.
The launch of the X-H2S was followed by even more 5th generation goodness with the Fujifilm X-T5 and Fujifilm X-H2.
And very soon we will also get the Fujifilm X-S20.
And given all those major releases, I was wondering how successful they have been among the FujiRumors community.
That’s why today I will launch an updated survey where you can tell us which camera you own.
Let’s see if there was a breakthrough in terms of 5th generation gear here on FujiRumors or if many of you did not update to the latest and greatest and stick with their older gear.
As a reference, here are the top 5 cameras we had in our last survey:
My Gear
Fujifilm’s X-H2S product planers and Autofocus developers meet in the latest X-Lab episode to talk about the improvements Fujifilm made with firmware 3.00 on the X-H2S.
Now, it’s again available only in Japanese so we have to rely on the automatic YouTube translation tool, which is far from ideal.
But don’t worry, you don’t have to do that. I went through this at 6:30 AM while drinking my coffee and I will sum it up for you below.
But if any Japanese speaking reader would like suggest corrections/additions to my summary, feel free to do so by writing me at fujirumor@gmail.com or drop it down below in the comments.
