Fujifilm X-H2, X80, GFX100V, X-Pan, Monochrome and More – FR-Readers Wishlist Corner
Here is another roundup of wishlist shared by the FR-community to me via email at fujirumor@gmail.com.
Previous Wishlist Episodes:
- Fujinon XF Wildlife Photography Lenses Needed, Base ISO 100, Firmware Wishes and More
- Hungry for Fujifilm X-H2, Visions for X-T5, Modular Fujifilm GFX, Monochrome and More
- Fujifilm X-H2 Dream Features, Fujifilm X-E4 Survey, Fujinon XF 135mm F3.5 and More
As opposed to the last episode, this time we focus on camera wishes instead of lens wishes.
In this roundup, one particular and recurrent wish finds me totally agreeing with: the need for a Fujifilm X80!
I do hope Fujifilm will understand that the Fujifilm XF10 was not the X70 successor we were waiting for and that they will finally give us an X80.
I mean, Fujifilm should have been able to overcome these X80 issues by now!!!

Fujinon XF27mm F2.8 MK II Coming Early 2021 with Fujifilm X-E4
Fujinon XF27mmF2.8 MK II
It had to happen this way!
According to our trusted sources, Fujifilm decided to launch the Fujinon XF27mmF2.8 MK II along with the Fujifilm X-E4. Both will be announced in early 2021.
This makes a lot of sense, as the XF27mm pancake prime is the perfect fit for a camera so small and portable as the X-E series.
I own both, the X-E3 and XF27mmF2.8, and I am looking forward to both, the X-E4 and XF27mmF2.8 MK II.
Will I buy both?
I don’t know yet.
I am so happy with my X-E3, that the X-E4 needs to have a couple of new nice features in order to convince me to get rid of my X-E3 for the X-E4. A simple tilt screen (please no selfie-stuff), a combined ISO/shutter dial as on X100V and X-Pro3, all the latest film simulations and autofocus algorithm… give me all that, and it will be hard for me to resist to it.
The new XF27mmF2.8 MK II instead needs just one thing: an aperture ring! Give me that, and I am all-in!
And even though I have no additional rumors about the XF27mmF2.8 MK II for now, I will probably sell my current 27mm just before the new one hits the market and the old one inevitably loses value.
It’s an act of faith: Fujifilm originally planned the XF27mmF2.8 to come with an aperture ring (as you can see in images we share in the past), and I have faith (no information, just faith) that Fujifilm will put the aperture ring back in the new 27mm.
DO NOT PANIC
Yes, I know, when Fujifilm released the latest X mount roadmap, the XF27mmF2.8 II was not included in the list of new lenses.
But you might have missed it, how, ahead of the new X mount roadmap, I warned you here: the XF27mmF2.8 MK II is coming, but won’t be on the new roadmap.
You don’t have to, but I strongly invite you to trust me: the XF27mmF2.8 MK II is coming, and today we know it will come along with the X-E4.
Trust me, guys ;)
