Additional Fujifilm X-S10 Media Slides: 27% Lighter IBIS, New Heat Sink Design for Longer Video Recording and More

I have received additional official media slides about the Fujifilm X-S10.

I’ll share them all down below for you to check out. You’ll maybe learn a few more little tidbits, for example:

  • a new heat sink has been designed, which transfer the heat to the magnesium allow body of the X-S10. This allows for more efficient heat dissipation and therefore allows for longer movie recording times
  • not only the X-S10 has a 30% smaller IBIS, but it is also 27% lighter IBIS unit compared to X-T4 and almost twice as light compared to X-H1 IBIS

You can see the slides with the new heat sink design, the IBIS data, and more down below.

Fujifilm Manager X-S10 Presentation: “Not All Fujifilm Cameras will Have Selfie Screens in Future and We Don’t Hate Mode Dials”

The Japanese youtube channel カメラのキタムラ had a chat with a Fujifilm manager.

The talk gravitates around the Fujifilm X-S10, and quite frankly 90% of what is said is stuff you already know. Here we highlight a few things that we consider more interesting.

The Mode Dial

  • One of the things we wanted to do was “custom position”, which is available from C1 to C4
  • we don’t hate mode dials
  • The X-S10 is a “gate camera” for those who enter the X system. A mode dial for simply operation was adpoted for that reason

The mode dial with C-positions is actually like going back to the roots for the Fujifilm X series, as Fujifilm’s second X series camera ever had already one and it continued with its successor.

If you ask me, bringing it back in what is probably the best value for money mid-range camera on the market, is an extremely smart and urgently needed move. We need more folks to join the X club, and the X-S10 could serve this purpose very well.

Film Simulations + Auto Mode

  • It is no exaggeration to say that the first reason for wanting to use a Fujifilm camera is film simulation
  • By pressing the Q button after displaying the film simulation with the function dial, an explanation of that film simulation will appear
  • An increasing number of younger generations of photography enthusiasts have never shot on film
  • New SP mode will record also RAW and select everything for you, inlcluding film simulation

The Rise of Vary-Angle Screens (selfie screens)

  • Fujifilm is not trying to put vary-angle screens on every camera
  • Each camera has its own personality, and Fujifilm chooses whether to implement a selfie screen depending on the main shooting purpose
  • The 3-axis tilt LCD monitor works effectively for still image shooting, so Fujifilm thinks it will continue to be effective for cameras that focus on still images

In my opinion a 3-way tilt screen is superior also for video shooters. The only advantage of fully articulating screens, is if you want to take selfie images or film yourself.

B&H Photo Shipping First Batch Fujinon XF50mm f/1.0 R WR Lenses

Finally! BHphoto has finally started shipping the Fujinon XF50mm f/1.0, as reported also by our Fujifilm X-T member Michael here.

Finally arrived from B & H but my puppy won’t go outside with me to pose.

What a gorgeous dog lens! (sorry, I am a massive dog lover!)

Fujifilm said that the demand for this lens is overwhelming. I guess not all pre-orders will be fulfilled immediately and in fact I hear of some fellow X shooter getting delivery dates well into December. But at least the delivery started, and let’s hope it will proceed fast from now on.

SIZE COMPARISON: Fujinon XF18mmF1.4 vs XF16mmF1.4 vs XF23mmF1.4

Just as we rumored, Fujifilm included the Fujinon XF18mmF1.4 on the official new X mount roadmap.

I took the technical sketch of the upcoming XF18mmF1.4 that Fujifilm showed us at the recent Fujifilm X summit and used it to compare its size to its closest internal f/1.4 competitors, the Fujinon XF16mm f/1.4 and the XF23mm f/1.4.

The result can be seen above.

Based on what Fujifilm provided us, we can say that the size will be basically identical to the one of the Fujinon XF16mm f/1.4.

If you want to see the size comparison between the Fujinon XF70-300mmF4-5.6 and other Fujinon lenses, check out this article.
