RUMOR: Fuji will launch a new XF 35mm f/1.4 lens (SRP = source was right in the past)!

 photo 35_zps872a70d8.png

the “old” XF 35mm: still out of stock after the high demand at the X-deals of February-April

_ _ _

First off: this rumor comes from a source, who was right in the past (SRP). If it is correct also this time, it will enter the elite team of trusted sources… until then, take it with a grain of salt!

The source told me that Fuji will launch a new 35mm f/1.4 lens. I do not know when it will be launched nor which improvements we can expect, but, as you may guess, I’m restlessly working on it even now on my lunch break from my day job (see facebook ;-) ). Once back at home this evening I’ll contact some sources and I hope to be able to give you an update soon.

Any help is highly appreciated and could make my work here a lot easier. You know how to contact me (via rumor box = anonymous (you can use a nickname so that I can recognize you in future) / via email at fujirumor [at] gmail.com)

X-T1 (kit) in stock at AmazonUS!… and one more award (photoxels)

X-T1 roundup

– The X-T1 is highly recommended also by photoxels here: “The Fujifilm X-T1 is a thoughtfully designed digital camera that is a joy to use and produces excellent image quality that rivals and even bests that of some enthusiast and top-end DSLRs. With its superb handling, direct control dials, intelligently designed viewfinder, weather-proofing, it is impossible not to revel in a perfect example of how cameras (retro or otherwise) should be built and operated. Highly recommended.”

soundimageplus‘ X-T1 just arrived. Read his first impressione here: “You could sell an organ and buy a Nikon D4 and sell another one for the team of sherpas to carry your gear around. You could buy a Nikon Df and a brown paper bag to put the camera in so that people don’t burst out laughing when they walk past you and then again you could buy an X-T1. […] It is nothing less than professional mirrorless in my book. Professional because it is designed to let the photographer control it rather than it control the photographer. It offers choices and simplicity and is well-thought out and well implemented. Time to get real? I just did.

For all those, like me, owning an X-E2, please stop reading now. You could get tempted to get rid of it and buy the X-T1.

I’m still resisting, but it’s incredible how everyone who gets his hands on this camera is simply enthusiastic about it. What’s so special about it? Well, in this post you’ll find the latest X-T1 tidbits. Ok, it’s the best X-camera ever made until now, but I’d get rid of my X-E2 only if the X-T1 would have a hybrid viewfinder… that said, I’ve never looked through the X-T1’s EVF by myself (and I can’t wait to do it), so the jury is still out.

At the bottom I’ve shared again Kai’s X-T1 review. I don’t remind any other of his reviews where he is so enthusiastic about a camera.

One more thing: I got emails of people from Europe and USA… they tell me that their X-T1 is ready to be shipped! That would be earlier than expected!

1) Let’s start this X-T1 roundup with techradar’s review here. They conclude that…

“… Fuji has done it again: produced a camera that is not only beautiful, but is capable of producing some superb images. We can see this being top of many a photographer’s lust list, and for good reason – it’s top of ours too.”

2) The list of review sites that award the X-T1 with their best ratings is rapidly growing. The next one is whatdigitalcamera here:

“The X-T1 isn’t entirely without flaw – it would have been nice to see Fujifilm add a touchscreen to the camera, while the option to have the camera in a silver finish would also be appealing.

That being said, there’s no denying the X-T1’s quality and on the whole it’s one of the best premium CSC’s on the market, reflected in its Gold Award status and a well deserved 93% overall score.”

3) Check focus-numerique here for some ISO test shots.

4) And some more X-T1 stuff: A: Fuji X-T1 & CP+ at kevinmullinsphotography here: “Part of my trip has also allowed me to use pre-production models of the XF56mm F1.2 and XF10-24mm F4 lenses. […]But the X-T1…..well, for the time being, all I’m saying is “Wow!”.  The view finder is simply gorgeous, low light and AF performance is again improved and AF-C is now very useableB: Grittymonkey: “Hi Patrick, If anyone was still looking for an unboxing video of the X-T1, here is mine: youtube… with a lot of French accent as a free extra… ;)C: Patrick Cavan Brown: “check out what camera David Alan Harvey is using! (video).” D: The 56mm and a little bit more of the X-T1 at neillsoden here: “Just to touch on the X-T1 again. This camera is great, fast and spot-on in the performance from the menus to the access to the SD card.”

Rumor

No folks, no X-T1 rumor today (until now)! But it could be of interest for all those owning Zeiss Touit lenses for Fuji X-mount.

According to an anonymous source, the firmware update (PDAF and LMO support) for the Touit lenses will come within the end of January.

Another new source instead said that the firmware update will come in February. This source also said that further Touit lenses are under development.

As usual, take it with a grain of salt.

FR is still one of the youngest and smallest rumor sites. The network of sources is slowly growing, but any further help is appreciated. If you have informations to share, then you can do it completely anonymously via rumor box (you can give yourself a fake name, so that I can recognize you in future) or also via email at fujirumor@gmail.com.

If you are located in the USA or in Europe… it doesn’t matter. You will hardly find the X100S cheaper than  here at DigitalRev. (save $200 / € 180)

The price drops again: get the XQ1 for $399 (save $100)! Black XF1 for $199

 photo xq1_zps1542e9b5.jpg

It was launched in October for $499, it dopped to $449 a few weeks later, and now you can have it for $399 at AmazonUS, BHphoto and Adorama.

This further price drop makes the XQ1 cheaper than the brown XF1, at least if you buy it on AmazonUS via third party resller ($449 here), while the red one costs the same, $399 here (AmazonUS via third party). But you can grab the black XF1 for $199 sold directly by AmazonUS (56% off)

On ebay you can find the brown XF1 for less than 449. Just use slidoo and find your deal.

A Walk in Florence with the X-M1… and save up to $72 on it!

Fuji X-M1: [shopcountry 13828]

– Here is what you can save on the X-M1 at AmazonUS: silver kit: save $68 – brown kit: save $72 – black kit: save $68 – black body: save $52.

– “Hi there Patrick, how are you? I recently upgraded my X20 to the X-M1 and wrote a review about it here. My review’s angle is different from other reviewers, focusing on an X20 upgrade experience and also on using manual focus lenses. I hope that this review can help some of your readers out there. I know that at the moment, the excitement is all on the X-E2 and even the X-A1, but I just couldn’t wait another two months to get my hands on the X-mount camera and I don’t regret getting this wonderful camera at all! Best regards, Joshua.”

– Take a talented street photographer (Donato Chirulli), let him walk through a stunning city (Florence) and give him the small, discreet X-M1… now enjoy the results here.

X-M1: $72 price drop at AmazonUS!

 photo x-m1_zps20e86c91.jpg

If you have read for example Rico’s X-M1 vs X-A1 shootout here and here or the riflessifotografici first look at the X-A1 here you’ll agree that the X-M1 with X-Trans sensor is the better camera in terms of image quality compared to the X-A1. But is it also the better deal?

Well, if the price is the reason that kept you from choosing the X-M1 over the X-A1, check out the latest AmazonUS deal on the X-M1! You save $72 on the stylish brown version or save $30 on the black one!

Now the gap between the X-A1 and the (brown) X-M1 is of $128. This is definitely a good move to make the X-M1 more attractive as Fuji X-series entry-level camera. Do you wanna switch the the X-Trans X-series (and also finally enjoy the amazing [shoplink 17602]Fujinon lenses[/shoplink])? Then check this deal out here.
