Fujifilm X100VI Coming with with REALA ACE Film Simulation… and About Reala Ace Being Possible only with GFX100II Sensor

The Fujifilm X100VI will be Fujifilm’s first APS-C camera to feature the new REALA ACE film simulation.

Some of you might think that’s an obvious rumor. But others might think it can’t be true.

And the reason why some might think it can’t be true, is because when the Fujifilm GFX100 II was launched, Fujifilm engineers said this during the X summit about the new Reala Ace film simulation:

The new GFX100II sensor is the best fit Reala Ace. Without this sensor, we are not able to realize REALA film simulation in it

But according to our sources, what Fujifilm said is not true. Or maybe Fujifilm just used a very unlucky and confusing formulation.

Because Fujifilm is able to realize Reala Ace also without the Fujifilm GFX100II sensor and the first camera (besides GFX100II) to have it will be the Fujifilm X100VI.

Maybe it would have been better phrased if Fujifilm would have said like back then during the Fujifilm GFX100S and Nostalgic Negative launch:

For nostalgic negative, Fujifilm needs large sensor. It can’t be implemented simply to APS-C. Fujifilm needs more time to develop Nostalgic Negative for the APS-C system.

Now let’s cross fingers that Reala Ace will come via firmware update also to all other 5th generation Fujifilm cameras.

Fujifilm X100VI Possible Price Info Leaked

We have received the information (thanks!), that the Fujifilm X100VI will cost $1,599.

This is not yet confirmed by trusted sources, so take it with a grain of salt for now.

This looks like a bargain if you compare it to the second hand price for a Fujifilm X100V.

But if you compare it to the original price tag for the Fujifilm X100V, we notice a $200 price hike. I guess not unexpected, considering that it will have a newer 40MP sensor, a better processor and even IBIS.

Fujifilm X100VI Coming also in Limited Edition

On February 20th, apparently the question will be not only: Fujifilm X100VI silver or Fujifilm X100VI black?

Because according to our sources (thanks!), Fujifilm will launch also a limited edition Fujifilm X100VI.

This is not the first time we got limited edition X100 cameras:

Now, all those limited editions X100 cameras were always launched a while after the release of the standard versions.

However, the fact that our sources have informed us about the limited edition X100VI coming too, might indicate that, for the first time ever, the limited edition X100 could come along with the standard version.

In my opinion, the best limited X100 edition that Fujifilm has launched, was the one of the original X100, which was produced in a limited number of 10,000 samples and shipped with a couple of all-black accessories (you can read what was included here).

Now, I don’t know what Fujifilm is preparing for us this time.

I just hope it’s not a Taylor Swift limited edition Fujifilm camera ;).

Fujifilm X100VI (with IBIS) basically Same Size of X100V (without IBIS)

When we told you that the Fujifilm X100VI will have IBIS, the concern was that this might make the camera bigger than the current X100V.

But I am glad to report that according to our trusted and new sources, the Fujifilm X100VI will be pretty much identical in size to the X100V.

Now, for the sake of being 100% accurate with the rumor, I must add that there is a size difference on the specs sheet. But it’s really an extremely marginal difference and only visible if you look at the specs sheet.

In real life handling, you won’t notice any size difference between the two cameras.

NOTE: the image above does not show the real Fujifilm X100VI. It’s just a rendering I made for the purpose to give a visual illustration of the point I want to make with this article

Fujifilm X100VI with IBIS? Here is the Answer!

The most asked question I got in regards to Fujifilm X100VI rumors was: will it have IBIS?

And frankly, being a photography first camera, I was a bit surprised to see that the IBIS question was the most urgent one.

Anyway, today you’ll get the answer.

And it’s an accurate one, because it is checked with multiple trusted sources (and also new and anonymous ones have told us the same).
