The previously announced Sirui 50mm f/1.8 1.33x anamorphic lens is now available on Indiegogo here.
Video sample shot on Fujifilm X-T3 can be seen in this article.
Don’t forget to:
Sonder Creative and Anete compared the Fujifilm X-T3 with Fujinon XF 56mm f/1.2 with the Sony a7iii with Zeiss Batis 85mm f/1.8.
At the end it is a split decision, with Anete preferring the Fujifilm system and Sonder Creative the Sony system.
But I want to highlight one thing, before I leave you to the video and a summary down below.
We know that, in terms of depth of field, f/1.2 on APS-C does not give the same results of f/1.2 on full frame.
In fact, f/1.2 on APS-C is closer to f/1.8 on full frame, and this is why on this comparison you don’t really see any difference in terms of depth of field between the Fuji and the Sony (except for the bokeh quality, which is better on the Fuji.)
The point?
When Sonder Creative exposed properly both images (base ISO, and widest aperture), he noticed that the shutter speed was completely different:
He concludes saying that:
one of the advantages of shooting with APS-C, is that you can shoot with a much faster shutter speed compared to full frame
Seen from this perspective, the light gathering capability of f/1.2 on Fujifilm APS-C is and remains f/1.2.
I thought I point this out and let you discuss about it.

And now to the video and the summary:
Just a few days ago, Fujifilm announced major firmware udpates for Fujifilm X-T3 and X-T30.
Now Fujifilm updated its original announcement.
What has changed?
Nothing, they just added at the bottom a link to the Shenzhen Gudsen Technology Co., Ltd. regarding the Gimbal/Drone support.
But official news is official news, so I have to report about it.

Would it be madness?
Take Fujifilm’s most successful camera line, the X-T1, X-T2 and X-T3, which remained intact in form and function for 6 years now, and annoy all Fujifilm X-T line lovers, by changing it.
Why do I say this?
Well, because if Fujifilm was to cancel the X-H line (as rumored by our forum member Jason here), this is what would happen, in an attempt to merge both lines into one.
Fujifilm would need an X-T4 with bigger grip (as the leaked specs would suggest), for better handling and operation with long lenses. So the sleek design of the current X-T line would have to make space to a more bulky grip.
And then there are the dials. Fujifilm X-T shooters love dials, so forget about the top LCD screen, but keep the exposure compensation dial.
The result?
A hybid camera, that would make both unhappy, X-T and X-H lovers.
Seen from this perspective, Fujifilm needs both camera lines, as this gives them design freedom.
This is why Fujifilm managers officially said that the Fujifilm X-H line will continue to evolve. It just needs time, as FujiRumors reported here.
Or maybe Fujifilm would demonstrate wisdom by canceling one line, as they will never really be able to make them coexist?
Having two lines on the higher end just creates confusion.
Better bet on one horse, and send it out to battle against Sony, Canon and Nikon.
