RoboShoot Firmware Ver. 2.1

We are pleased announce version 2.1 of RoboSHOOTplus. It is available NOW for MX-20 and MX-15 upgrades! This version adds Studio Strobe and additional flash support, High performance with CH/CL manual mode, In-Camera Control improvements, and more. Also, by virtue of expanded Nikon speedlight compatibility, this release enables Nikon support even on the lower cost ‘X-15 units. As a result, the MX-20 and MX-15 make great companions, as with that combination you can upgrade both over-the-air!

The most important new features include:

You might remember, how one month ago, Fujifilm officially said that the Fujifilm X100F received an unprecendented interest, far more than X100/S/T. And indeed, the success is extraordinary, and hence, the camera is hard to find in stock.

Well, at least now, the black Fujifilm X100F is in stock at AmazonUS and BHphoto.

And now some Reivews

• Backlit compositions are tricky with the new X-Trans III-sensor at fotox (but looking at the thousands of awesome images shared at our 7,000 members strong Fujifilm X100F facebook group, this does not really seem something to worry about in real life shooting. So many happy X100F shooters over there, that are completely in love with their camera :) )

Gary Tyson – shared at the GFX group here: “Picked up the Cambo Actus GFX yesterday will do some testing. Just sharing a quick look at how far up/down/left right can move before vignetting kicks in. Using a hasselblad 40mm CFE lens on it. Seems to be an outstanding bit of kit” – NOTE: I could not embed the video here on FR, so only GFX members can see it.
