Fujifilm X-Pro4 – Rebuilt from the Ground – Wishes and Speculations

The Fujifilm X-Pro4

2 years ago, Luca Petralia made a video in which he expressed his Fujifilm X-Pro4 wishes. Among them, the controversial removal of the hybrid viewfinder.

But for some who wish to get rid of the optical viewfinder, there are others instead who prefer the EVF to get removed in favor a full optical-only viewfinder.

Personally, I think neither the optical nor the electronic viewfinder should be removed.

On the contrary, I hope they’ll both be improved, and early rumors point indeed towards that.

Fujifilm X-T6, X-Pro4, X-H3, X100VII with 46 Megapixel Sensor? – Speculation Based on Fujifilm GFX180

We told you that there will be a Fujifilm GFX180. it won’t happen very  soon, but it will come at some point.

And the Fujifilm GFX180 might even tell us more about the future of the Fujifilm APS-C system and the X-Trans 6 sensor.

Why?

Well, Fujifilm usually uses the same sensor for the X system and GFX system, with the only difference that the GFX sensor is about 4 times bigger.

This means:

  • 26MP APS-C sensor (X-S20 & Co) = 102MP on GFX (GFX100S & Co)

Now, if we were to apply the same logic to the rumored Fujifilm GFX180 sensor, then we would get this

  • 180MP on GFX = about 45.8MP on APS-C

This means that I would not be surprised if the Fujifilm X-T6, but also the Fujifilm X-Pro4, the Fujifilm X-T60, the Fujifilm X-E6, Fujifilm X100VI and the Fujifilm X-H3 would come with a 46 megapixel sensor.

This means a slight increase in resolution for APS-C, which is definitely welcome.

Other questions remain open, with the main one being if it will be a DGO or DCG sensor.

Regarding the “more megapixel are bad for low light photography”, make sure this read this debunking article.

Fujifilm X Shop Vietnam Lists Fujifilm X-Pro4 as “Coming Soon”… Undermining Their Own Fujifilm X-T6 Specs?

We recently reported that the Vietnamese Fujifilm Shop X Camera listed the Fujifilm X-T6 on its website—along with a set of highly controversial specifications.

However, that same shop also lists the Fujifilm X-Pro4, marking it as “Coming Soon” and attributing it to 5th-generation specs.

And this tells us a lot… about those listings.

I checked their X-Pro4 page, and it appears to have been online since September 2024.

In addition to that, it shares what are very likely wrong specs, since they say it will come with 5th-generation specifications. I mean, after such a long wait, an X-Pro4 launching with 5th-generation specs would unleash the shitstorm of the century—and FujiRumors would proudly lead it. 😉 So I hope they are wrong on this.

All this strongly suggests that it is nothing more than a placeholder, filled with assumed specs rather than real and final specs.

And if the X-Pro4 page is indeed fabricated, this inevitably means that we should take also their Fujifilm X-T6 listing with a grain of salt.

Anyway, this is what they write on their X-Pro4 product page:

Fujifilm X-Pro4 – Time to Remove the OVF, or the EVF… and Everything in Between

Fujifilm X-Pro4

Is it the Fujifilm X-T6?
Nope.

Then it must be the X-H3, right?
Not that one either.

Ah, so surely the X100VII!
Forget about it.

The camera people ask me about the most — and the one I get the longest wish lists for in my inbox — is the Fujifilm X-Pro4.

And since so many of you have shared your hopes and ideas, it’s time for a dedicated Fujifilm X-Pro4 Wishlist Roundup on which I share some of your messages.

They include the very controversial opinion to remove the optical viewfinder and go the Leica M EV1 path. If Leica was brave enough to make this step, why shouldn’t Fujifilm?

But, as you can read here, some also want the complete opposite: get rid of the EVF and only keep the OVF (+ERF).

In my opinion Fujifilm should not ditch the OVF. On the contrary, they should make it even better. And early rumors suggest they are indeed doing just that. But at the same time do not remove the EVF. So, in short: an improved hybrid viewfinder is the way to go according to me.
