1.  X100T goes on clearance, and now news of a new camera.  Would love to see a full frame X100, with a 35mm 1.4, fixed.  

 

2.  XPRO1 with a smaller (slightly) body and an organic sensor and improved AF.

 

3.  X40 with micro 4/3 sensor.  

 

WFG but that's the fun part, right?

it might be  something more radical but I wonder at what point they realize that they start actually competing with itself.

 

There are only so many poles that a fisherman can use before the number of lines in the pool actually gets too big that they are actually in the way of one another.

But I tell you this... we could need a New Camera Section (!!!) here on the Fuji X Forum!

 

 

I'm going to guess a compact. Something as successor to both x100 and x30.

 

Simply look at the actual Camera Sections...

Successors to x100 and x30 would come into an existing camera section ;)

 

So it is no X-T, no X-Pro, no X-E and so on...

Agreed.  This would have to be a completely new camera so a X-????  There was a quote further back in the thread where someone mentioned that the rumored X-Pro 2 was going to get a new name instead being called the X-Pro 2.  This is what I'm betting my money on.

 

That being said, I would absolutely LOVE to be surprised with a completely new system that no one saw coming.  Seeing how great Patrick is staying on top of the rumor mill though, I doubt we'd be completely blindsided.  =)

But yet Apple has made this the core part of their business, cannibalise yourself rather than let competitors take it from you..

This is my educational guess, the next camera would be: X-Pro2 with 1.3 crop sensor

but I do hope it would come with the new organic sensor, that would really shock the entire world...........cheers :);)

For some reason these two things are sticking in my head.

 

1) Fixed Lens Full Frame Rangefinder - which would be the big brother to the x100 series.  Would an x200 series have it's own subforum or be merged with the x100 series?  If this was to come true then I think it would warrant it's own forum.

2) Medium Format Rangefinder - The digital successor to the GW-690!  This one is way more of a long shot in my mind.  We don't have any lenses that would work on a MF sensor (as far as I know).  Again we haven't really seen anything about new lenses geared towards a sensor this size or appropriate lenses.

It will come with graphene organic nanocrystal sensor that grows off the plant-based silicone backing. And that sensor will be a 16 megapixel X-Trans II array with the same DR and ISO range as all current cameras.

      Anyone out there have any experience/feedback on the Laowa 55 mm tilt shift? I’d be using it on the GFX 50s ii.

      gimbals (& threads getting spammed)

      By jshire · Posted

      Hi, I'm researching a gimbal to get someone as a present & they use a Fuji XS-10. I did a quick search of previous threads on gimbals but all of them seem to either get no replies or spammed by a link to an Amazon list. I'd appreciate any comments from folks who've actually used specific gimbals with the XS-10. I'm aware that some, such as certain models from Zhiyun, DJI & FeiyuTech either don't say that they are fully compatible with the XS-10 but other sites say they do work ok but some functions don't. It's quite difficult to work out which functions work & which don't. Thanks.

      A portrait with a 28mm lens

      By DavidJohn · Posted

      This was snapped during a lunch.  Total shooting time—a few seconds. We so often read that a proper "portrait" should be snapped with a longer than normal lens, a low ISO to get lots of detail, and have a soft light held up above the head, and slightly to the side. The key, in my opinion, is always carry a camera.  Have your camera available to capture candid, authentic photographs.  Available light, no posing.   This portrait used 2000 ISO, the lens wide open at f4, and 1/100 sec. to stop any movement.  I didn't even take time to compose—I just snapped.  I leave the "Face Detection" on unless I'm photographing a landscape or subject other than a person. The GFX100RF has the equivalent of a 28mm lens.  The large sensor renders fine detail even at fairly high ISO ratings.  And the drawing of the lens is just perfect in my opinion.  It was set to B & W, with slightly reduced sharpness and clarity (set in-camera).  Ideal for "portraits."  Now, for some subjects I will likely increase the sharpness and clarity to the normal setting.  The camera is new, and I'm still experimenting with it.
