This is the New Fujifilm X-T50 Film Simulation Dial – VOTE: Better Drive or Film Simulation Dial?

We just reported about the Fujifilm X-T50 featuring a brand new film simulation dial.

Well, now other sources (THANKS) have now passed us the first image of the dial.

We can see:

  • 8 fixed spots for: Acros, Nostalgic Negative, Classic Neg., Reala Ace, Classic Chrome, Astia, Velvia, Provia (STD).
  • 3 variable spots: FS1, FS2, FS3 – assign your preferred film simulation on those dials
  • C position: disable the dial and the camera will activate whatever film simulation is set in your custom settings

Of course, it’s the drive dial of the Fujifilm X-T30II that is gone in favour or the the new film simulation dial. Let us know in the comments if you’d have preferred the drive dial or you prefer the new film simulation dial.

Coming May 16

For the X-T50 I prefer...

SURPRISE: Fujifilm X-T50 Coming with an All New Dial

The image of the Fujifilm X-T50 has leaked already and it shows it retains all the nice dials we loved from the X-T30.

However, what the images do not show, is that one of those dials is a completely new one.

In fact, thanks to a couple of sources (including new/anonymous ones – THANKS!!!) we can tell you that there will be a dedicated film simulation dial on the Fujifilm X-T50.

Now, like all the latest Fujifilm models, also the Fujifilm X-T50 will offer a total of 20 film simulations.

But not all 20 film simulations will be on that dial.

In fact, the new film simulation dial will have 12 positions:

  • 8 fixed film simulations
  • 3 positions can be assigned to whatever film simulation you want
  • 1 “C” position to basically disable the dial, and the camera will activate whatever film simulation is set in your custom settings

Now, the source who explained it in detail to me contacted me via rumor box. So I have no way to contact it and ask questions. So I will do it here.

The question is: can you put your own recipe on the three positions that are free on the dial, or can you just assign a standard Fujifilm film simulation to it?

An additional message to the source: Thanks a lot. I have read also the second part of the rumor and I find it very interesting and I am currently looking into it. Thanks so much for putting me on the right track.

And to all sources: you can now contact me 100% anonymously also via Signal. This way we can also chat and at the same time keep identities anonymous.

Fujifilm X-T50 Price and Main Specs Leaked

Earlier today the first image of the Fujifilm X-T50 leaked and we reported about it here.

Now our sources have also passed us the main specs (besides the one we already leaked a while ago, such as IBIS and 40MP).

Here are the specs for the Fujifilm X-T50:

  • 40MP
  • X Processor 5
  • IBIS
  • 1 SD Card slot
  • not weather sealed
  • NP-W126S battery
  • same EVF of X-T30 (this has to be confirmed still, so don’t take it as 100% rocksolid for now)
  • price €1,499
  • coming in three colors: silver, black and charcoal

Just a comment about the price.

If I am correct, then there is a 50% price increase from X-T30 to X-T50. As a comparison, we got a 30% price increase passing from X-S10 to X-S20.

Sure, I was hoping that the X-T50 would also “just” get a 30% price increase, but also consider that the X-S10 already had IBIS and also uses the same 26MP X-Trans IV sensor of the X-S20, so you were paying for these features already on the X-S10.

On the contrary, the X-T50 features IBIS for the first time on an X-T** camera and also takes the jump to the 40MP realm and X-Trans V sensor. So, seen from this perspective, a 50% makes a bit more sense, although I still consider it quite a hefty price jump.

And in US Dollar?

Well, I have no rumors, but if we apply the 50% price increase in Europe also to the USA, then the X-T50 would end up costing something between $1,300 or $1,400. But that’s just a speculation based on the price increase we have in Europe.

Fujifilm X-T50 First Image Leaked (Sort Of)

On the Chinese Weibo platform the first image of the Fujifilm X-T30II successor has leaked.

We know since a over a month now that it will be called Fujifilm X-T50, and I guess that, if this image is legit, then this kind of confirms our rumor.

Lots of Fujifilm Online Courses now 20% Off and “Learn Film Simulations” Course for Free

When we shared the article about the Fujifilm X-T5 Pocket Book (read here), FR-reader Bluesoda dropped the following comment:

I do think the best Fujifilm books for learning the camera are by author Rico Pfirstinger and the best online Fujifilm camera specific courses are by this guy (Peltier Photo Courses):

What I like about these two instructors they go over stuff about the cameras you can’t easily find in other places, especially initial camera wide settings.

Now, I am very familiar with Rico’s books, but the Peltier Photo Courses were new to me.

So I’ve checked them out and ultimately also got in touch with John after joining his courses as an affiliate. I’ve asked him if he could offer an exclusive discount code to the FujiRumors community, and he accepted.

So, you can get the courses below at a 20% discount by using coupon code “fujirumors“.

I own his Fujifilm X-T5 tips and tricks book, highly recommend it and have no doubts that X100VI shooters will find tons of useful info also in Rico’s new X100VI book.

Also, RockyNook is preparing also the Fujifilm X100VI pocket guide, which will be released on September.
