I'm ready to pull the trigger on buying an X-T1, but because it has been on the market for nearly 2 years, I'm concerned that Fuji may be on the verge of releasing an X-T2. Does anyone have any information as to when an updated version might be announced? Thanks.

For what a rumor is worth....and since this is the forum of a rumor’s site after all.

 

See the buttons on top of each page? The last one says Fuji X rumors. If you press that one and then on the page which opens in the search box you type X-T2 what you get is this:

 

http://www.fujirumors.com/fujifilm-x-t2-coming-pretty-soon-after-the-fujfilm-x-pro2-source-right-in-the-past/

 

 

How reliable the source and how realistic the rumor I don’t know.

 

They will replace the X-Pro-1 sooner rather than later, of course they will have to introduce something new for the Photokina 2016 , which is still one year away.

 

Introducing the X-T2 in 2015 would take some wind off the sails of the X-T10. If I were them I would introduce the X-Pro-2 in 2015 and then wait for the Photokina to introduce the X-T2.

 

What the exact nature of the improvements on these two cameras will be depends much of the sensor which is available to Fuji.

 

In all honesty, having a 24Mp sensor leaving the rest pretty much the same wouldn’t make me buy another camera.

 

If I were you I’d buy a X-T10 and wait for the bigger brother to show up. Life is too short to keep on waiting.

I wonder what the chances are of a new X-T1 (X-T2) 24MP being announced and available for sale by August 2016.

 

I'm headed to Alaska for two weeks to cover a wedding and do some additional stock/landscape work since I'm already there at the expense of the Bride and Groom.   Even though I really don't need the extra MP it would be nice insurance to have to future-proof my stock images sales.

 

Anyone?  Any thoughts?

If you are worried then you should just buy the xt-10. However I am personally content with both my xt-1 and xt-10 for my purposes and I wouldnt mind buying them at any point of time.

 

Another idea is you could buy a pre-owned xt-1 ...

    • The backslashes you are referring are just symbols denoting path.  Once you import into these LUTS into Davinci Resolve those backslashes are removed by default and you only see is the true file name which has no backslashes.  Convince yourself of this by opening the LUT folder from the Davinci Resolve Project Settings.  Do you see any backslashes in those LUT names? Of course not.  The only name you see is the one that has the underscores and the periods. These LUTS work as designed without having to change any path names.  However, they need to be set up properly through CSTs and by what is supported in Davinci Resolve.  Hence, the FLog2C film simulation LUTS cannot be used because Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut color space and the FLog2C gamut. Alternatively, Davinci Resolve does support Flog2 film simulation LUTS because the color space for FLog2 is Rec 2020 and there is an FLog2 gamut. If all you are doing is changing the path names then you are not getting the correct results.
    • I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕  
    • Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!
