Also, Ken has published his 3rd edition of the Fujifilm Tips and Tricks ebook, which you can download for free here.
Pre-order Rico’s book The Fujifilm X-T4: 150 X-Pert Tips to Get the Most Out of Your Camera.
With the Fujifilm X-T4 about to hit the market (and actually already shipping in some), Fujifilm managers all over the globe are giving tons of interviews to make the world ready for the best camera it has ever seen to date: the Fujifilm X-T4 :).
Of course, I pre-ordered it, too :)
Now, for your convenience, I always provide a practical summary of all manager statements in my various article, and yet, with so many interviews, there might be some statements you might have missed anyway.
So I thought I filter out those statements, that I consider most relevant, and put them all into this article.
However, there is so much more interesting stuff to read, and so I strongly recommend you to check out all the original articles. I will provide all links below.
Here on FujiRumors I get many, really many thousands of emails and personal messages a year.
There is no team behind FujiRumors. It’s me, Patrick, that’s it. And I try to reply to every single one of you, in my spare time from my day job.
I feel very privileged that such a large community comes together here on FujiRumors… but with huge fellowship, comes also huge responsibility and work.
Hence, for as much as I try, sometimes I am not really able to answer you all in a super-comprehensive way.
But I think everybody gets a reply, and surely I read ever single message I receive.
Among those messages, there are many, who express lens wishes, firmware wishes, improvement ideas and all possible things.
Today I decided to collect many of those messages I get, and put them all in one big FujiRumors readers wishlist roundup.
I would like to honor your participation as good as I can, and this little wishlist roundup, is a little sign, that whatever you tell me, I listen…. and I share :).
Have a wonderful Sunday,
Patrick

Let me first say things how they are.
Fujifilm NEVER announced any major firmware update for Fujifilm X-T3. The rumor of a Kaizen X-T3 update has been published here on FujiRumors a few months ago. And it was only a rumor.
Pressed by questions, Fujifilm managers later on just vaguely answered that such a firmware is “under consideration“.
Another thing is the huge update for Fujifilm GFX100. That firmware has been promised by Fujifilm back in February here. The main course of the meal: pixel shift multishot for 400 megapixel images.
Anyone salivating? ;)
Now back to the rumors.
According to our sources, both, the Fujifilm X-T3 as well as the Fujifilm GFX100 firmware updates should be released in the first half of 2020 (which May/June).
I asked if it could come out already in April, but my sources are sure it won’t be April.
And now a mandatory warning!
While I am 100% sure Fujifilm’s current plans are the ones I said above, after almost a decade of my life dedicated to Fujifilm blogging, I can tell you that if there is one thing, that can experience sudden plan changes at any time, then it’s firmware updates.
Fujifilm has a deadline, but especially with firmware updates, those can change quickly. The firmware will be released, only when ready.
And yet, the plan is to come out with both, X-T3 and GFX100 firmware within the first half of the year.
That’s it for now.
But if you want more, just keep us following us ;).

Fujifilm manager Toshihisa Iida gave an interview to DPReview.
Here is what he says:
I know, here on FujiRumors we told you that Fujifilm decided to drop the Fujifilm X-E line, which means there won’t be any Fujifilm X-E4.
It’s one of those rumors, I hope to be wrong with all my heart (but I am very confident I am not).
Now, the X-E line was always walking on a thin line, and it risked to be dropped already in the past, as you know from my X-E3 love letter.
These days I am scanning the web for any statement regarding the X-E4, that can give me some hope.
I searched long, and I found a short statement made by Italian Fujifilm manager Massimo Vaghi in a 2+ hour long Fujifilm X-T4 and X100V live chat.
He says:
