Adorama instead still says that “Fujifilm will start shipping the XF16mmF2.8 on 05/31/2019“.
Here on FujiRumors we also exclusively broke the rumor for you guys, that the Fujifilm GFX100 will be announced on May 23. Now go out, spread the word… and quote the source ;).
Don’t take the trailer too seriously, though. Of course the Fujifilm GFX100 won’t destroy half of the camera universe. It’s just I am super-pumped to see Avengers Endgame, too, and I guess my brain just merged my excitements into the trailer you see above.
And yet, the mirrorless endgame really begins. Camera companies try to find a way to survive in a declining market, but it’s clear that there is no space for all to flourish.
Fujifilm tries to survive by avoiding the full frame mud fight and by dropping medium format beasts and agile hybrid APS-C cameras to the market.
If that will work out or not, only time will tell.
All I know is that I will be here, on May 23, to give you the most epic live blogging ever seen on FujiRumors.
Stick around guys, because this is just the beginning of a long rumor marathon ;).
So, how does the Fujifilm X-T3 firmware 3.00 work?
Overall it’s a nice improvements, although some might have found some bugs, others think it does not keep up with Sony A6400. You’ll find it all down below.
At the end I think we can agree that there is always something to improve. So thanks for Fuji for the great update, and just make it even better in future :).
And since we speak of Fujifilm X-T3, I’ll share also some not firmware related X-T3 content
Every now and then I get emails from fellow Fujifilm X Shooters, complaining that their camera settings get completely deteleted. There are several reasons this can happen:
after firmware update (it should not happen, but it can)
discharging of the small build-in internal battery: happens if you leave your camera too long without battery. In case of new cameras, give it a long first charge, or settings will delete shortly after battery has been removed
So the first thing you can do, is to avoid the errors we mentioned above.
And yet, sometimes it’s not a user error (see firmware update), so you better have a Plan B in case all your settings get lost, and in our case, our Plan B is called Fuji X Acquire.
And since just right after the Fujifilm X-T3 firmware update, some FR-readers couldn’t find the back-up feature, I thought I share a quick guide on how to save & restore your Fujifilm camera settings using Fujifilm X Acquire.
