Fujifilm X Summit Nov. 2 at 9AM New York Time: What We Know Will Come (and What I Hope)

Are you guys ready?

FujiRumors certainly is, ready to deliver you an epic announcement day on November 2 at 9AM New York time.

So what will we surely get?

I mean… X-T5… it can hardly get more exciting that this!

And yet, as we have learned from the past Fujifilm X Summit, Fujifilm always has some surprises during X summits that not even FujiRumors saw coming.

So what could Fujifilm launch that FujiRumors never rumored? (and to be clear I have no rumors about)

Well, here is what I hope for (NOT RUMOR):

  • Fujifilm X App: there are rumors and even official Fujifilm slides leaked here on FR, but I have no information on it come along with X-T5. And yet, I certainly hope for it
  • new film simulation: usually with the introduction of new sensor and processors, Fujifilm also launched new film simulations. But this did not happen with the X-H2s and X-H2. So again, I have no rumors, but I hope Fujifilm will give us one on the X-T5
  • richer lens roadmaps: if you take a look at the latest X mount roadmap and GF mount roadmap, they are very poor on future lenses. I hope Fujifilm will release new roadmaps richer in lenses
  • Kaizen Firmware: given the huge effort put into completely re-writing their autofocus algorithm starting introducing a massively improved face/eye AF and subject/animal detection, it is no surprise that there hasn’t been much time and money left to update older cameras with the latest features. But now that it is done, I hope Fujifilm will reassure us that more Kaizen firmware will come in future and that they will make a statement about it during the X summit
  • Mock-ups: what Fujifilm likes to do is to show mock-ups of upcoming lenses. And despite FujiRumors already having made a size comparison of the XF8mmF3.5 with other Fujinon lenses and sort of hands on mock-ups of the upcoming Tilt Shift G mount lenses are already to be seen at BHphoto here, I hope they will show us the latest mock-up version
    – Fujinon GF 110mm f/5.6 Tilt-Shift Lens
    – Fujinon GF 30mm f/5.6 Tilt-Shift Lens

So, that’s my top 5 hopes. And what about you?

LEAKED: First Fujifilm X-T5 Images

So guys, these are the first leaked images of the Fujifilm X-T5.

Anyone of you guys can make a size comparison with other Fujifilm models? At the moment I am super busy, so if anybody can, feel free to make it and share it in the comments or send them to me via fujirumor@gmail.com.

I will of course work on making my own, but if somebody is faster, that would help immensily. Thanks

Fujifilm X-T5 vs X-T4 vs X-H2 vs X-H2s – The Complete Specs Comparison

With most of the specs of the Fujifilm X-T5 now leaked, I thought it could be useful for some of you to get an overview on how it compares to other Fujifilm X series cameras.

So we are going to compare the following cameras:

Above you can see the comparison sheets.

*pre-orders start at 10AM New York time Nov.2

Fujifilm X-T5 Pre-Orders Very Likely to Start Nov.2 at 10 AM EDT (1 Hour After the X Summit at 9AM EDT)

Many FR-reader have the same problem I have: when the heck can we finally pre-order the Fujifilm X-T5?

And since this question came up often in the last few days, here is my best answer.

In all X summits I can remember, pre-orders started 1 hour after after the start of the X summit.

This means that since the next X summit starts at 9AM EDT (Nov.2), pre-orders should start at 10AM EDT (Nov.2).

Of course this is just an educated guess based on the history of every X summit we have ever seen. But I can’t exclude that for the first time ever Fujifilm will change the “pre-order embargo” strategy.

With that said…

… if you think….

… if you think that FujiRumors did a decent job with the X-T5 rumors…

…. then feel free to pre-order the Fujifilm X-T5 via FR affiliate link… it would be an amazing support if you did…

And if you do…

then thanks in advance… it’s people like you who keep FujiRumors alive.
