BREAKING: Fujifilm X-T30II has No IBIS and is “More or Less an X-T30 on Firmware Steroids”

We already told you that Fujifilm will launch the Fujifilm X-T30II.

Now sources reached out to us and told us that it will be “more or less a Fujifilm X-T30 on firmware steroids“.

Another source (thanks) told me that it won’t have IBIS, which is one of the features many thought would be added on the X-T30II.

End of rumor… and now, dear X-T30 owners, be kind to Fujifilm in the comments if you want to get Kaizen love ;).

P.S.: Yep, I once told you the X-E4 would be the last X-Trans 4 camera. Now we have this one. But now you also get it why the X-E4 is really the last X-Trans IV camera, as this one is an X-T30 with new firmware. But don’t worry, I’ll move it into my wrong rumors list anyway.

CORRECTION: Fujifilm X-T3 is NOT Discontinued but Certain Variations Maybe Harder to Find

Here is what happened.

Two days ago a fellow Fujifilm X Shooter contacted me, saying that his local store told him the following:

  1. the Fujifilm X-T3 has been removed from the list of current Winter deals, hence the $500 rebate is gone
  2. the Fujifilm X-T3 has been discontinued

So first thing I did was to check the Fujifilm deals page, and indeed, the X-T3 no longer showed up among the rebated cameras.

I then wrote this article, where I informed you about the X-T3 deal being removed and that a local store spread the news the X-T3 is now discontinued.

However, trusted sources immediately reached out to me and yes, they confirmed the removal from the deals list of the X-T3, but they also clearly told me that the X-T3 has not been discontinued but some X-T3 variations (kit combinations) maybe harder to find from now on.

Also, I have been told that the real reason Fujifilm removed the X-T3 deals is that the demand for X-T3 is very high and Fujifilm can’t keep up with it.

So it was important to set things right for you guys.

2020: a 1917 Parody and Retrospective on an Unreal Year – Short Movie Filmed Entirely on Fujifilm X-T3

 

Here is something for the weekend.

I was going through our massive Fujifilm X-T group to enjoy some images during my lockdown, when I noticed the link to a short movie called “2020“.

It’s about two roommates who attempt to survive 2020 on the mission to get some toilet paper.

This short film is a parody and love letter to the award winning movie 1917. And interesting for us Fujifilm X lovers, it was shot entirely on a Fujifilm X-T3 with a Zhiyun Weebill-S.

I thought this might be something you’d like to check out sometimes this weekend, in case you haven’t seen it already.

Speaking of 2020, down below an image I’ve shared on my instagram, that sums up pretty well how my work changed in 2020.

Ok guys, I hope you are all well and safe. Take your precautions and enjoy your weekend,
Patrick

CORRECTION: Fujifilm Spain Says Classic Negative Firmware for Fujifilm X-T3 is NOT Confirmed… and I Wouldn’t Lose Hope Yet!

False Alarm

Just yesterday we reported how Fujifilm Spain said that the next X-T3 firmware update will include Classic Negative film simulation.

Now Fujifilm Spain is correcting their statement. They deleted the comment they made on Instagram and they contacted the Spanish website Fujistas and told them:

We have no official confirmation as to whether the new firmware update for the Fujifilm X-T3 camera will include the Classic Negative film simulation mode

Fujifilm Spain told Fujistas that they confused X-T3 with X-S10 (the latter one has Classic Negative).

That’s a huge pity, but if I was a Fujifilm X-T3 shooter, I wouldn’t give up hope.

Is there Still Hope?

Implementing Classic Negative to the Fujifilm X-T3 is something Fujifilm can do rather easily, as it shares the same processor of the X-T4 and X-S10. And I strongly believe that at some point somebody at the Japanese Fujifilm HQ will have a momentary lapse of reason and give out the order to put Classic Negative into the X-T3!

My idea? (not rumor)

Fujifilm might just want to wait a little bit longer to bring Classic Negative to the X-T3, to protect even more X-T4 sales, which started shipping only 6 months ago in the middle of a worldwide pandemic putting the world under lockdown and causing a worldwide economic crisis… not the best conditions to launch a new camera.

Don’t get me wrong, the X-T4 is like all other X-Tx cameras a hot seller for Fujifilm, but given how amazing* 2020 was so far, it probably didn’t meet the very high target sales Fujifilm envisioned for this camera.

Giving the X-T4 a little “artificial” firmware advantage helps a bit to bring its sales more in line with what Fujifilm was expecting and hoping.

And guys, we all want Fujifilm to survive and possibly even flourish in the camera market, and hence we must accept a bit of Realpolitik because of that.

With all that said, once X-T4 sales are better and probably passed its peak [which I expect to be in early spring 2021], I am confident Fujifilm will give us Classic Negative also on the X-T3.
