Fujifilm X-E4

I confirm everything I said before: the Fujifilm X-E4 will not have a fixed screen and it also won’t have a fully articulating screen like the X-S10/X-T4.

Here is the real deal brought to us by our trusted sources:

The Fujifilm X-E4 will have a tilt up screen similar to the one we know from the Fujifilm X70 and from the Sony A6400.

Also, when positioned flat to the body, the screen should be flush to the body like Fujifilm X100V screen.

I am very curious to hear those of you guys think, who were considering to buy the Fujifilm X-E4. Is that a solution you like or you can live with? Or is it a no-go?

Fujifilm 2021: Is This Really All? Or How Much New Gear We Could Get in 2021 Looking at Fujifilm’s Past Camera & Lens Releases

Fujifilm 2021 – Is This Really All?

Every week I get many emails from fellow FR-readers, asking me if this is really all.

They look at the current X mount roadmap and the latest G mount roadmap, and they see only 3 lenses in total. That’s meager.

Then they look at our rumors, see that we rumored only two cameras, the Fujifilm GFX100S and the Fujifilm X-E4 and wonder if that’s all for 2021.

I diligently reply to all of them, but it has become quite time consuming. So let me address this question one final time here on FujiRumors, so that in future I can just copy and paste the link to this article and send it to those, who inevitably will make me the same question again.

Fujifilm X-E4

A few weeks ago we broke the rumor that the Fujifilm X-E4 will not have a fixed screen.

Among the 180+ comments shared in that article, some were surprised, as this would be the first X-E camera after the X-E1, X-E2, X-E2S and X-E3 not to have a fixed screen, whereas others feared/hoped for a fully articulating screen like Fujifilm X-T4 and X-S10, given the 2020 rise of selfie screens.

Now sources would like me to clarify that the X-E4 will not have a fully articulating screen like the one the X-S10 or X-T4.

As a former owner of all X-E cameras (except X-E2s), I would have been totally fine with a fixed screen, but depending on which design Fujifilm chooses, I could be happy also with a non-fixed screen. I wrote my preferences here.

Fujifilm X-E4 still with 26 Megapixel X-Trans sensor (and Why I’m Happy with That)

Fujifilm X-E4

I noticed some speculation in the comments, on whether the Fujifilm X-E4 might introduce a new sensor generation.

But nope, it’s not going to happen. Fujifilm will put the 26 megapixel X-Trans sensor in the X-E4.

And quite frankly, despite it being 2.5 years old, it is still packed with Sony’s latest and greatest technology: phase detection pixels all over the sensor, back-side illuminated, copper wiring for even faster readout. It’s the best sensor Sony has to offer without going into more exotic (and expensive) terrain with stacked sensors (Sony A9 series), which allow even faster readout, but decrease dynamic range.

Yes, Sony has a 43 megapixel APS-C sensor in offer, but maybe that’s a bit of an overkill for APS-C. In my opinion the sweet spot for APS-C is somewhere around 32/35 Megapixel. It would allow for 8K video recording, be still supported by Fujinon glass and just offer a nice balance between file size, details, dynamic range, costs and just overall performance. For 50+ megapixel, it is probably better to go with the GFX system anyway.

As you can imagine, I am working on more details regarding the Fujifilm X-E4. If I have anything new, I’ll you know on FujiRumors soon.

Fujifilm X-E4 will NOT have a Fixed LCD Screen

Fujifilm X-E4

Recently I wrote one of the most commented articles of the year here on FujiRumors about the rise of selfie screens.

In that article, I also explained which one are my preferences when it comes to screen designs for the upcoming Fujifilm X-E4.

Well, today I have an update for you guys.

A source read my article and told me I should take one option from the list: the fixed screen.

So, the Fujifilm X-E4 will not have a fixed screen. Honestly this surprises me a bit, as the X-E1, X-E2, X-E2S and X-E3 all had fixed screens. So that’s definitely a signifcant change for the X-E series.

An X-E4 with fixed screen was my second favorite option. If you want to know the others, check out this article.

I am working on more details and I’ve scheduled a call with the source in the next few days, so I hope I can give you updates very soon.
