Some love it, others hate it: the dual ISO/Shutter dial on the X-Pro2… and also the Fujifilm X100F will feature this dial – see the images here.
But with the X100F, Fujifilm will make everybody happy. Here was a new source (thanks a lot… also for using a nick name :) ) told me:
On the X100F, you can set the ISO value using the dedicated ISO dial, but you will also have an option to set it via the command dial, when the ISO button is set to ‘A’. In the menu you’ll need to confirm this option as the AUTO ISO will be made undone with this feature if set.
Here on FujiRumors we asked several times Fujifilm to give us a firmware update for the X-Pro2, that will allow us such a “dual operation”… and it seems that Fujifilm listened :-)
The same source told us that this feature will “probably” come to the X-Pro2 via Firmware update.
January 19 is very close. And the real hot time has yet to come here on FujiRumors. So make sure not to miss anything and follow us on Facebook, RSS-feedandTwitter. You can also allow push notification by clicking at the bell on the bottom right of your browser.
We already leaked the price for the Fujifilm GFX (and lenses) in € and $ here. And right now I got the price for the rest of the gear, that will be announced on January 19:
Fujifilm X-T20 = €899
Fujifilm X100F = €1399

The Fujifilm X100F, X-T20 and XF50mmF2 will start shipping in mid February. That’s the current shipping embargo. However, as you know, you should take these kind of rumors always with a grain of… sodium chloride mineral ;)

Just like the X100T, also the X100F will be launched in black and silver. – via nokishita
So soon we will see:
– X100F (Black / Silver) – X-T20 (Black / Silver) – XF50mm F 2 R WR (Black / Silver) – GFX-50S – GF32-64 mm F 4 R LM WR – GF63mm F 2.8 R WR – GF120mm F 4 R LM OIS WR MACRO
Nokishita says it will be announced next week. According to FR sources, it will be the 19th.
The digital Tele-Converter should work just like the one we find in the Fujiflm X70. And if I remember correctly, using the digital Tele-Converter on the Fujifilm X70 disables RAW shooting. And as much as I love Fuji’s JPEG’s, I think not having a RAW file can be quite a big downside. But it’s nice to have this option anyway.
Evidently, if we want to keep the compact size of the current X100 line, there is not much space for a dual SD-card slot. And the compact size of the X100F might also not help the heat dissipation necessary for the 4K shooting, hence, no 4K.

NOTE: The leaked X100F images shared recently here are the 100% real thing.The day it will be unveiled (January 19), just compare it with the images here on FR. You don’t believe me? Then what about a nice bet? If I win, you send me a bottle of wine, and if I lose, I send you one. According to my calculations, I should get enough wine for the entire year 2017 :-)

Rumored Specs
First X100F Images from Top, Back and Front (rumor here)
Today I woke up with a very interesting email from the trusted Japanese source :)
Just like every year, our trusted Japanese source decided to make us all a little X-mas present. And since some of you critized its drawing skills when it sketched the Fujifilm X-Pro2 last year (even though it’s clear to see, that the source has talent for that… I know how quickly it sketched those images), this year the source decided to share the real thing with us.
Are you ready? Ok, then meet the Fujifilm X100F – see all the images below :)
IMHO, the X100 line is and remains the best looking X-series camera… and the X100F just continues this tradition. I was really tempted to jump on the X100T last year, when I destroyed my X-E2, but at the end I got the X-T1, just because I had already invested quite some money in the lenses.
Imagine an X-E3, spec’ed like the X100F, which one would you buy? Of course consider differences, like the hybrid viewfinder and leaf shutter on the X100F and the interchangeable lenses on the X-E3. But for the rest, sensor, processor, AF-performance, video capabilities and so forth would be identical.
Why this Survey?
I launch this Poll to see, which camera would sell better amongst FujiRumors readers. And a little bit I launch it also for Fujifilm Managers… this market study comes to you for free, but if you really insist, I could also accept a free Fujifilm GFX* ;)
* or can you at least make a special ultra-discounted price for me? My masterplan to get the money for the GFX is not really working. And now it starts to be quite hard to stay out in the cold for hours.
