As you can see from our Fujifilm camera release timeline, Fujifilm usually released a new X100 camera every two years, but this time, they waited unusually long, and we gave you 3½ reasons why Fujifilm is wating so long.
But at some point, it had to happen, and now I can tell you when.
The Fujifilm X100V will see the light of the day in February 2020.
Moreover, our sources tell us that the price should be around $1,500, but that’s just the current estimate. However, in terms of price, things can change from here until launch, but right now Fujifilm is gravitating towards this price tag.

Even before the official Fujifilm X-A7 announcement, FujiRumors told you here there will be also a dark blue version of the Fujifilm X-A7, and we showed you first images months ago here.
Since then, I have received a few request from readers, asking me about the dark blue version.
It might have been passed unnoticed, as I already said it here, so I thought I might say it again: the dark blue Fujifilm X-A7 is already selling, but not in all countries (as reported also by pcmag).
For example, you can find the Navy Blue Fujifilm X-A7 at the Russian store interfoto here.
So far, it is not available in North America or many EU countries, but it might come, if that color turns out to be particularly loved in the markets where it’s sold. Just as it happened with the brown Fujifilm X100F, which originally was sold only in selected countries, and then found its way also in the US market, although it is now again discontinued.
What you can find in stock everywhere, are all other Fujifilm X-A7 colors.

Let’s keep it short and clear: the Fujifilm X100V will NOT have the hidden LCD screen of the Fujifilm X-Pro3.
And to be even more clear: the Fujifilm X-Pro3 will be the ONLY Fujifilm camera with the hidden screen for the years to come. It’s unique to X-Pro3. Whatever comes, Fujifilm X-H2, Fujifilm X-T4, X-T40, X-E4, X100V, any GFX camera and more…. none of them will have the hidden screen.
Fujifilm X-Pro4? Well, I don’t know if it still has the hidden screen. As it is scheduled for 2023 anyway, I think not even Fujifilm itself knows at this point.
I hope that was clear enough. ;)

Mark was at a Fujifilm X-Pro3 launch event. The interesting part of his report, is in regards to the Fujifilm X100V:
I also got a little bit of gossip from the Fujifilm rep on the x100 refresh: He said that he has seen three mock ups of potential designs, two of which have flip screens (with one modelled on the Xpro3’s). He also said that there have been serious discussions about weather sealing – whatever that means.
If the report is accurate, a tilt screen is an option Fujifilm is currently considering. Remains to see which kind of tilt screen it could be (but it could still be a fixed LCD).
Weather sealing?
I think that’s possible. FujiRumors already told you exclusively that the Fujifilm X100V will have a new lens, so Fujifilm could have grabbed the opportunity to re-design the lens making it weather sealed.
But I’d like to know in the poll below, if you think the Fujifilm X100V should have a tilt screen or not.

As lovely as Fujifilm’s film simulations come out of the box, there is always a way, to fine tune them to taste, simply by changing some settings quickly in the camera.
For example, so did Pete:
Today I would like to share the film simulation receipts of FR-reader Ritchie Roesch, which I stumbled upon in the comments to this article here.
I will share only one here on FujiRumors. For the rest, check out the links I will provide below:
NOTE: Some profiles require newer Fujifilm cameras that have the Color Chrome effect or certain film simulations not available in older cameras
And:
As a free and independent space, here on FujiRumors we report just everything, the good and the not so good, not matter if Fujifilm likes it or not, as my only boss are FR-readers, and I owe you the best service I can deliver.
Hence, today, in this Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4 roundup I chose to highlight some aspects of the lens, that are not really that good.
And yet, despite not being a perfect lens, those who review the Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4 still end up recommending it, as a great all rounder lens.
At the end, it’s all about finding the right balance, keeping in mind what’s the target group of a certain lens. And I guess in order ot keep size, weight and price down, Fujifilm had to rely more on digital correction in the case of this lens.
This is part of our little curiosity and famous X shooter corners, and I think you’ll enjoy this one particularly.
The 2017 BBC documentary “A Life in Pictures” about the great photographer David Hurn has now been uploaded to YouTube (video below).
It’s definitely worth watching in itself for the photography and to learn more about David’s life and art.
According to our sources, the Fujifilm X-Pro3 will come in an additional color, not yet available for Fujifilm X-Pro2.
Will it be a fancy brown like the X100F, or maybe just vintage silver top plate like on the X-E3?
I will investigate further and let you know, so make sure to follow FujiRumors on Facebook, Flipboard, RSS-feed, Twitter, Youtube and Instagram
