IBIS COMPARISON: Fujifilm X-S10 vs X-H1 vs X-T4 – Smarter Wiring, 30% Smaller Side by Side with Older IBIS Units

In the latest Fujifilm X Lab episode (which is in Japanese and you rely on a ridiculous automatic google translation that often does not make sense), Fujifilm engineers and managers talk about the Fujifilm X-S10.

They talk about the challenges of shrinking IBIS, how they changed the wiring to make it smaller and more power efficient and other things.

But what is most interesting for us, is that they showed the brand new IBIS units of the Fujifilm X-S10 side by side with the one of the Fujifilm X-H1 and Fujifilm X-S10.

As we have learned during the the launch event (which we shared in our huge X-S10 live blog), the IBIS unit on the X-S10 is about 30% smaller over the one on the X-T4.

And looking at the images below, you can really see how the X-S10 IBIS is clearly smaller than the X-T4 IBIS, not to talk of the X-H1 IBIS, which is the first IBIS Fujifilm ever created (well, that’s not technically not correct, but seriously, we don’t count this one, ok?).

It’s impressive how rapidly Fujifilm is proceeding with the miniaturization process of its IBIS, which is a declared top priority for Fujifilm.

The Fujifilm X summit in Omiya is about to start (October 15 at 9AM New York Time).

Feel free to stay tuned on FujiRumors, where we will cover the event live.

Thanks to our sources and past leaks on FujiRumors, we have a pretty clear idea what could happen. But it’s possible that there will be surprises, too.

So let’s run over it and see what we expect, what not and what we hope.

  • New Fujifilm GFX camera – according to our sources, it won’t happen until early 2021… and it will be pure awesomeness :)
  • Fujifilm X-E4 – expected for early 2021
  • We don’t expect any full announcement for the following lenses: XF18mmF1.4, XF70-300mmF4.5.6, XF27mmF2.8 MKII and GF80mmF1.7

→ WHAT WE HOPE

To be clear, there are no rumors I have in this case. This is just a mere wishlist of mine.

  • Firmware announcement also for other X series cameras (besides X-T3)
  • Firmware update release announcement for Fujifilm GFX100 pixel shift
  • Fujinon G mount lens roadmap – it would be high time for a new one
