Fujifilm X-Pro3 (and Fujifilm X200?) Coming in 2019 According to Techradar

Fujifilm 2019 Techradar Predictions

According to techradar predictions, the Fujifilm X-Pro3 will come in 2019. And they seem pretty confident about that, since they write here:

“We’ve pooled together what we know for sure with our predictions for the next twelve months.”

Less likely, but also a possibility according to techradar is the Fujifilm X100F successor (may it be called Fujifilm X200 or Fuji X100V or anything else).

If techradar is accurate, this means that Fujifilm changed their usual camera-refresh cycle, and that they will not skip one sensor/processor generation with the Fujifilm X-Pro3, as they did with the X-Pro2.

Here on FujiRumors we have already shared Fujifilm X-Pro3 concepts and wish lists.

Oh, and did you know that the Fujfiilm X-T30 is just around the corner? ;)

Fujifilm X Camera Replacement Timeline from 2011 to 2018 and What This Could Mean for X-H2, X-T4, X-T30, X-Pro3, X-E4, X200

Fujifilm Timeline

Today I decided to take a look at the refresh rate of the top/mid range Fujifilm cameras and tried to make a guess (NOT A RUMOR) about when the Fujifilm X-H2, Fujifilm X-Pro3, Fujifilm X-E4, Fujifilm X-T4, Fujifilm X-T30 and Fujifilm X200 (or X100V) can be expected.

Overall we can see how the Fujifilm X-E and X-Pro line are gravitating towards a 4 years refresh time, whereas X-T and X100 line are close to a 2 years refresh time.

WARNING

  • This is not based on rumors, and it’s not said that Fujifilm will always keep the same product refresh rate. Everything can change anytime.
  • Don’t miss the upcoming rumors and join us on Facebook, RSS-feed, Instagram, Youtube and Twitter

NOT INCLUDED:

  1. All 2/3 sensor cameras are not included, since the won’t ever get any successor (not even 1 inch sensor cameras, no matter what old patents say)
  2. X70/XF10: XF10 is not the X70 successor. It’s unclear if there will be a Fujifilm X80 at some point
  3. X-A line has a high refresh rate, but the FR community is for the most part not interested in this camera line
  4. GFX 50S, GFX 100S, GFX 50R: According to our rumors, the GFX 100 comes 2 years and 3 months after the GFX 50S. It’s unclear if the Fuji GFX 50R will also get a 2 year refresh rate or a 4 year refresh rate like its rangefinder brothers the X-Pro and X-E

Fujifilm X-Pro3 Concepts and Share Your X-Pro3 Wish List

Fujifilm X-Pro2 concept developed by Fujifilm and shared at senzo.co

Fujifilm X-Pro3

One of the top questions I got after the announcement of the Fujifilm X-T3, is when the Fujifilm X-Pro3 will come.

Well guys, in the Fuji world, rangefinder cameras like the Fujifilm X-Pro and X-E line, do not sell nearly as well as their SLR-like brothers, such as the X-T20 or the new X-T3.

Hence, Fujifilm is never in a hurry to release new iterations of those cameras. The Fujifilm X-Pro line for example even skipped the X-Trans II generation, and went from X-Trans I directly to X-Trans III.

And so far I have not heard anything reliable about the Fujifilm X-Pro3.

So all we can do for now, is imagine how we would like the Fujifilm X-Pro3 to be.

X-Pro3 Design

A FR-reader send me this Flickr link, where H.B. Kang imagines an X-Pro3 with vertical grip and new colors.

So I thought, why not, let’s talk Fujifilm X-Pro3 and start dreaming how it should be.

In addition to Kang’s X-Pro3, I will add down below some real Fujifilm X-Pro2 (and X-Pro1s) concept that Fujifilm studied during the X-Pro2 development. We have already shown them in this FujiRumors post, and you can find more images at senzo.co here.

I will start by launching a poll, where you can vote the top 3 features you’d like to see on the Fujifilm X-Pro3. Vote, and then let your imagination soar free in the comments.

NOTE: I mention the additional dials of the Olmypus PEN F in the poll. If you don’t know how it looks like check it out the images at BHphoto.

For the Fujifilm X-Pro3, I want... (max. 3 selections)

Nostalgia Meets Utility: Thumb Winder on Fujifilm X-Pro4 and More Wishlists and Ideas for the Next X-Pro

X-Pro4

We just shared an article about a guy, who added a dumb-thumb-winder to this Fujifilm X100VI.

In that article I said that I personally would be happy to see an X half alike winding lever also on the Fujifilm X-Pro4.

Of course this was a very divisive opinion and I thought let’s vote on it.

And speaking of X-Pro4, after the survey I will share a few FR-readers wishlists and a video about it.

And if you think my thumb-winder idea for X-Pro4 is controversial, then you better skip the video of Luca Petralia ;).

Would you like a Multifunctional Thumb Winder on the Fujifilm X-Pro4

For X-Pro3 successor: Blocking systems for all dials (especially the exposure one), a more usable hidden screen, a frame for 18mm in the OVF, and real coverage or framing (currently I think there’s a 10% gap), a better viewfinder for glasses holders (may they be prescription or solar) and a smart protection for the sensor when changing lenses, like the lock system in Mamiya’s twin lens.

by Nelson

Xpro4 – add 4-way control back to this camera (and to x100v ); vastly improve optical viewer magnification or remove entirely; reduce overall body size if possible.

Don’t Hope for Fujifilm X-Pro4 in 2025 :: GFX Eterna in September and More – Mid-2025 Rumor Check

So far in 2025, we’ve had two X Summits, three brand new Fujifilm camera announcements, two X-mount lenses, and even a couple of new Instax cameras.

That’s quite a gear-packed year already!

And with all that gear also came plenty of rumors.

So let’s take a moment to look back and see how accurate we’ve been so far in 2025 thanks to our sources:

  • 59 rumors shared so far in 2025
  • 1 rumor still to be verified
  • 56 correct rumors out of 57 verifiable rumors
  • 1 wrong rumor
  • 1 rumor not in ranking
  • 98.25% correct rumors

What’s left in terms of rumors for 2025?

Well, not much actually. Which is why below I insert also rumors shared back in 2024 that still have to be verified, such as this X-Pro4 release info rumor and Fujifilm TX-3 rumors. All ranked by reliability.

Rumor Overview with Rating

HIGH RATING*
* 75% to 99% correct

  1. GFX Eterna full announcement in September (shared June 4)
  2. X-Pro3 successor not coming in 2025 (shared December 16, 2024)

MEDIUM HIGH RATING*
*50% to 74% correct

  1. Fujifilm Panoramic Digital Camera currently discussed by Fujifilm (not final decision yet) for release in 2028 (shared May 6, 2024)
    NOTE: I know that this is highly trusted, so they are discussing it. I just don’t rank it higher because this would otherwise give the impression that FujiRumors said this camera will come for sure. And in any case it is still 4 years away, so plans can change.
  2. Fujifilm TX-3 Digital Panoramic Camera: Fujifilm Debating Between Bayer or X-Trans Sensor (shared September 2, 2024)
  3. Next X-Pro coming with improved hybrid viewfinder (shared September 3, 2024)

MEDIUM LOW RATING*
*25% to 49% correct

  1. nothing

LOW RATING*
*1% to 24% correct

  1. nothing. I mean, it could be the longest list considering the number of fakes I got also in 2025. But we don’t like to bother our readers with fake stuff like others do.

Fujifilm X Half: A Playground for Innovation – Could It Inspire the Next Generation of Fujifilm Cameras?

Say what you will about the Fujifilm X Half, but one thing seems clear: it’s Fujifilm at its most experimental.

And it’s not just about the bold decision to go with a “half frame” sensor or the unusual vertical LCD layout.

The Fujifilm X Half incorporates new ideas and concepts that go well beyond that.

Most notably:

But there are also other features, also firmware related, like the new analogue mode, which further show that Fujifilm is really going wild with ideas on the Fujifilm X Half.

These features got me thinking: could any of these experimental touches make their way into Fujifilm’s higher-end X series cameras in the future? And more importantly—should they?

Let’s take the controversial LCD on the X-Pro3 as an example. Loved by some, loathed by others, that hidden screen was always a polarizing choice. But what if it was a small touchscreen instead? One that let you quickly swipe through film simulations or adjust key settings? Maybe that would breathe new life into the hidden LCD concept and win over more fans.

Personally, though, if I had to pick just one feature to bring to future X series cameras, it’d be the thumb winder.

Call me nostalgic—I won’t mind. The tactile joy of pulling a lever to take a shot again? That would be pure joy. And keep in mind, on the Fujifilm X Half the lever can serve several purposes. So you can see it as sort of a “function lever”.

If Fujifilm gave us a thumb winder with assignable functions on future cameras, that would be a nice touch.

But hey, that’s just my take.

What about you? Would you like to see any of these features on upcoming X series cameras? Cast your vote in the poll below and share your thoughts in the comments!

Fujifilm X Half: The Secondary Screen Explained (and It’s Quite Cool)

When the Fujifilm shared the first image of the backside of the Fujifilm X Half, we could notice a small vertical secondary screen on the left of the camera with “PROVIA” written on it.

Well, today we can tell you a bit more about it.

I don’t know if Fujifilm was “inspired” by this Canon camera, which first introduced the concept of a “Multi-function touch bar” on a mirrorless camera, but I guess we can say Fujifilm took that concept and enhanced it.

Here is why.

That little screen is an LCD touch screen. You can use to swipe and select your film simulation, but also to select/change menu settings. I don’t know if you can do even more with it, like zooming into an image or other things.

And it’s different to the little screen we find on the Fujifilm X-Pro3, which also shows the film simulation, but it is not a touch screen and you can’t use it to swipe through film simulations or settings.

I look forward to see that little touch screen in action in just a few days.
