Fujifilm X-T6 with Geolocation :: X-Pro4 Thumb Winder :: Recipe Sharing via QR Code :: New Lens Hood for XF150-600 – FR-Readers Wishlist Corner

This is Part 2 of the FR-readers wishlist corner. You can read Part 1 here.

by Craig

[NOTE: here on FujiRumors we investigated the idea if the X-Pro4 should feature a thumb winder similar to the one of the Fujifilm X half. FR-reader Craig added the following question to it.]

Patrick, would it be possible to add a survey that says: “Would you like a REAL, MECHANICAL thumb winder, like the one on the Epson RD-1? NOT a multi-functional. But one that is actually necessary to take the next photo on the X-Pro4 (or whatever they will name it). OR, perhaps, on a specialty Fuji rangefinder. I’d buy it if they did it right like Epson.

may I suggest a post about a topic for a post that may be not so important, but nevertheless bothers me since the introduction of the Fuji XF 150-600 mm zoom lens?

It’s that ugly black, cheap plastic lens hood that was delivered with that lens. It seems that Fuji included a new designed lens hood with the XF 500 – and wouldn’t it be nice if they would offer an accessory lens hood in the same design for the XF 150-600? Fuji offers square metal premium lens hoods for their XF 18 / 23 /33 lenses as an alternative – so why not a better premium hood for the XF 150-600?

Fujifilm X-T40/X-T30III: A Chance to Revive Fujifilm’s Best LCD Screen Mechanism?

Fujifilm once had a brilliant idea: put a smart LCD screen mechanism into this Fujifilm camera.

But despite being quite brilliant, Fujifilm used that screen only once on this underrated camera and never again.

Is there any hope for a revival?

Well, so far I have no info about a return of that screen, but I would certainly hope that the Fujifilm X-T40 or X-T30III will feature that screen again. Even though my best guess is that it will use the same body of either the X-T30II or X-T50.

The unique tilt/flip screen was first incorporated on the Fujifilm X-T100. It worked similar – but not identical – to the one of the Sony A7rV.

And there is actually one more cool thing I’d like back from the X-T100/X-T200 series, and I wrote about it here.

Fujifilm X-T30 III or X-T40 Coming in 2025 – Let the Specs Speculation Begin

We told you that in 2025 Fujifilm will launch the successor to the Fujifilm X-T30II (which is not the Fujifilm X-T50).

Now all we can do is to speculate about the specs.

If I should bet (this is a speculation, not a rumor), then I’d say that Fujifilm could put the trusted 26MP sensor in the Fujifilm X-T30II successor, maybe in combination with the X Processor 5, just like it is for the Fujifilm X-S20.

Maybe to make it even more affordable, they could give it to us without IBIS using the same body of the X-T30II. But again, that’s just my guess. It could be also the X-T50 body with 26MP sensor. It depends on which price Fujifilm is targeting with the X-T30 II successor.

I’d prefer the X-T50 body over the X-T30II body, not only because of IBIS, but also because I prefer the film simulation dial over the drive dial. And overall I find it more refined and better looking. But let us know in the comments what you prefer.

The name?

Well, I guess it will be called Fujifilm X-T30 III or Fujifilm X-T40.

So, I’ll end my speculations here. But I’d love to read yours in the comments below.
