What about an XT camera made for sport…..

I love Fuji cameras. For the last 4 years now I’ve been shooting with an XT2. But lately my mind is on the fact that Fuji doesn’t have a more “specialized” camera for sport and wildlife.  Like canon has the 1DX, Nikon has the D6, and even Olympus with the OMD-E-M1X . A very rugged weather sealed camera with an in body vertical grip, high speed frame rate (25 FPS), 25-30mp, super fast auto focus, WiFi, ….etc….I would even suggest to be sold with 1 or 2 dedicated professional high end super fast lenses like a 50-200 f2 and a 200-500 f4. 
I’m almost certain it would be very popular . Not cheap of course, I’m talking about a pro grade camera here. Something around $10000 for camera and lenses. But with the Fujifilm image quality it would be definitely a winner. 
And the name: I would call the camera   the XT-S and XF-S for the lenses

Originally the XT line was made for Sport.  The XT-3 was one of the more sophisticated Sport/Wildlife camera on the market at the time.  The XH-1 came out and that was supposed to be the "Hybrid" line.  But then Fuji went video centric and have not built a camera since the XT-3 - all Fuji has output have been camcorders.

So far all the marketing I've seen for the XH-2 is about 8k Video.  Another camcorder coming out, so I don't expect a camera any time soon.  I love my XT-3 and will stick with it, until Fuji starts making cameras again!

    • Ahoy ye hearties! Hoist ye yon Jolly Roger and Cascade away. NGC 1502 The Jolly Roger Cluster:

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing, but it is well worth the effort.

    • Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?
    • See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.   
    • What's the deal Fuji X Forum? I'm noticing there are seldom replies to any topics - except for advertisements posted as replies. Really lame. Anyone else noticing the only reply they receive to a question is an advert?  🤠 fotomatt in Colorado
