[UPDATE] Godox Update: More Details about Fujifilm TTL/HSS Support (Including New X2 Trigger for Fujifilm in July)

Godox Fujifilm Support

For an entire month, the news was somewhere hidden on CheetahStand facebook page, until an attentive FR-reader (thanks) finally spotted it and shared it with us here. The news is now spreading quickly on the web, as usual ;) .

Anyway, since we broke the news today that Godox is working on Fujifilm support, something is moving, and more details just appeard on the web, always via CheetahStand here:

“Olympus and Panasonic TTL/HSS remote for Cheetah X series light come out first…I will test on May….Fuji coming right after that….Stay tuned“

Also FR-sources (thanks) quickly dropped me emails. Here is what I got from them:

  • The Godox X1 for Fujifilm will be released at the end of April, or beginning of May (HSS and TTL)
  • The new X2 trigger with Fujifilm support will be released in July

** UPDATE ** : More tidbits from the Cheetah page here:

“Godox will make TT350 first. I will test it…..If good move to V860X….If good make X1 and same time all X series will accept Olympus/Panasonic by firmware update….Same on Fuji“

The original Roadmap shared earlier today:

Godox Plan:
TT350 Olympus and Fuji April-May 2017.
If TT350 is good, Move to 685 and V860II.
If all is good move to X1 Fuji and X1 Olympus.
The same time firmware update for all 2.4G light accept Fuji and Olympus

Clarification: Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10 Hybrid digital/film (with USB-Charging) and Instax Square SQ Film Only

Fujifilm Instax Square SQ Film only
Fujifilm Instax Square SQ Film only

Whops… seems I mixed up something yesterday regarding the Instax Square rumors. Sorry, I’m going to correct it today :)

2 days ago I’ve reported about the first leaked image of the Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10. The image showed a LCD screen on the back and 6 buttons.

I’ve immediatly contacted sources, who confirmed our suspects: the Instax SQ10 is a digital/film hybrid instax camera. In fact, sources also told me that the Instax SQ10 will have a microSD card slot.

During the talk with a source, I also aksed if there will be other Instax Square versions. The source confirmed, and promised me an image for the day after of the Instax SQ… and so it did.

I’ve shared the image of the Instax SQ here on FujiRumors yesterday, and for some mysterious reason I told you it will be hybrid camera.

But actually the source never said this. It only send me the picture of another Instax Square version (the Instax SQ), without adding any comment. So, when yesterday I wrote you it will be hybrid, the source was so kind to contact me again today and tell me I’d better correct that. Only the Instax Square SQ10 will be hybrid. The Instax SQ instead will be film only.

And btw, the source added another detail: the Instax Square SQ10 will have USB-charging (in addition to the micre-SD card slot)

ok… now I think it’s time for me for a little break. I’m going to grab my dog, my camera, and go out a bit ;)

First LEAKED Image of the Fujifilm Instax SQ (not SQ10)

It’s Instax Time

In the last few days, I’ve shared here on FujiRumors the first images that surfaced on the web (on facebook) of the Instax Square SQ10. After the leak, I’ve investigated further, and informed you that the Instax Square cameras will have a microSD card slot and be a digital/film hybrid.

I also asked sources if there will be other Instax Square versions, and they confirmed. For example, there will be also the Instax SQ (in addition to the SQ10).

One source in particular promised me to grab a camera and share an image for all of us… and so it did today. This is of course exclusive for FR-readers, so you won’t find it anywhere else on the web. But you are free to spread the word on forums/websites etc… if you don’t mind the watermark ;)

The Instax Square SQ10 will be a hybrid digital/film camera, with microSD card slot. The SQ instead will have a useful selfie-mirror, that sits right under the “Fujirumors” logo.

Btw, in case you missed yesterday’s update: As pointed out by instax_square on their instagram “it’s not the first time Fujifilm combined a digital camera with an Instax Camera. Fujifilm Finepix PR21(1999) vs Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10 2017)”

LEAKED: Fujifilm Instax Square Images (Instax Square SQ10)… with Huge LCD screen on the Back

So guys, these could be the first images of the Instax Square… or at least one of the Instax Square version, the Instax SQ10

Take it with a grain of salt for now, but if you compare it to the Instax Square teaser video that Fujifilm released months ago, where you can see small details of the camera, this leaked image really looks very close to it.

Note the big screen at the back and the six buttons… something seems to be quite different compared to other Instax cameras… are we all having the same thought right now, right? :)

I guess that, like with all instax models, we will see many variations of the Squre Instax cameras and in all possible colors. Instax is a winner, and it’s years now that Instax dominates the sales ranking. As also said in a recent documentary about Fujifilm, the Instax factory can’t keep up with the demand.

The wait seems to be almost over :-)
