New Fujifilm X Mirrorless Camera Could Be Announced SoonBack in January, Fujifilm announced a new camera in the form of the Fujifilm X-T1. However it seems that the company might have plans for another X-series camera, at least according to a post by Fujifilm Bangladesh.

What happened was that one user posted on their Facebook page asking if they had any plans on releasing a new X-series camera, to which Fujifilm Bangladesh was quoted as saying, “Fujfilm might release another X System MILC very soon. Stay tuned for further update from FUJIFILM“. (more…)

    Fujifilm UK Launches Camera Customization Service

    Fujifilm UK Launches Camera Customization ServiceWhen it comes to cameras, for the most part they tend to look pretty boring. They usually come in black, brown, or silver finishes which usually gives off a very somber look, unless you’re talking about Lomo cameras in which it’s a whole different story.

    In some way cameras can be thought of as a fashion accessory, especially if you were to sling it around your neck. Now the good news is that if you were sick of cameras looking so dull and boring, Fujifilm UK has launched a new customization service for Fuji X cameras that allows photographers to customize how their cameras look.

    Fujifilm’s New X-T1 Interchangeable Lens Camera Can Weather The Storm

    XT1_Front-Left_56mm_WhiteBK

    A new interchangeable lens camera from Fujifilm should make adventurous photographers happy. It features dust- and water-resistant housing, which can take temperatures down to 14 degrees fahrenheit, allowing it to go where previous cameras feared to tread. The Fujifilm X-T1 works with Fuji’s X-mount line of compact mirrorless camera lenses, and three weather-resistant additions to that line are being introduced today, too.

    The X-T1 offers a 16.3 megapixel APS-C X-trans CMOS II sensor (which is the same found in the X-100S) that provides fast autofocus, and it has the EXR Processor II, as well. There’s an OLED viewfinder with EVF, that’s protected by a layer of tempered glass as another nod to weather resistance and overall durability. Built-in Wi-Fi allows for remote shooting via Fujifilm’s app for smartphones and tablets, and in the box there’s a weather-sealed external flash, too.

    The new lenses are one that does 18-135mm at F3.5-5.6, one from 16-55mm at F2.8, and another wide aperture zoom offering 50-140mm at F2.8, each of which also provides optical image stabilization. Accessories for the camera include an all-leather case, a vertical battery grip for ergonomics and extended shooting time, and a new hand-grip attachment. The cost for body alone is $1,299.95 when it goes on sale in March, and a kit with the 18-135mm lens will cost $1,899.95 in June.

    Fujifilm has been among the most successful camera companies when it comes to reimagining itself in a world where consumers aren’t all that interested in standalone compact cameras. The X-line has garnered praise from all corners for its sophistication and performance, and adding pro-grade weather resistance to a body in this range is another example of its strategy of finding opportunity for growth in the niche enthusiast market.

    Fujifilm X-T1 Is Official

    Fujifilm has been teasing their upcoming camera, the Fujifilm X-T1 for a while now and sure enough today, on the 28th of January, the camera manufacturer has officially taken the wraps off their latest product offering. Based on the official press release by Fujifilm, the X-T1 appears to be more or less the same as what the rumors have suggested, and the official photos also corroborate earlier leaks as well, a design which Fujifilm likes to call “traditional” with dials and buttons placed where professional photographers might have come to expect, versus more modern cameras where the dials and buttons could be laid out differently.
