Here is a suggestion for Fujirumors.com

Hey Patrick, as you know, we all love your site. I personally literally visit it every day.

 

However, here is a simple suggestion how you could turn your great rumors site into a phantasmic site: Currently the rumors are only organised as a newsfeed. This is great when you viisit regularly, but not so great if you want to get a quick overview on what's coming up. Instead you could implement a simple and well-designed overview page on Fuji bodies, lenses and other stuff. In this overview page, you could label the different items with colours depending on whether they are rumored, confirmed or released. Clicking on the overview item would lead to the rumoured specs or - at a later stage - to the reviews etc. essentially similar to when you type in a certain model name in the search dialog. 

 

To show it a little bit more graphically, I was thinking about something like this:

 

1) Bodies

 

- X-Pro2 (rumoured)

• Rumoured spec 1
• Spec to etc

- X-T2 (rumoured)

• Spec 1 etc.
• etc.

- X-T2 (released)

• review 1
• review 2
• etc.

- Medium Format Camera (rumoured)

• Link to Rumour

 

2) Lenses

 

- 90mm (released)

• Review
• You get the Idea

 

3) Other gear

- Fuji-X-Tshirt (released)

• Buy here

- Great Fuji Flash (lets hope it ever comes)

 

 

I don't know whether it would be vastly difficult to code something like this, but this would be done well, it could be the most comprehensive and simple overview on existing, rumoured and upcoming Fuji gear ever. To someone like me, a site like this would be insanely helpful to plan for future purchases.

 

Let me know what you think.

Hi

 

As a rumor network, we are working on a redesign of our sites. But these things are always more complicated then one might think. We will take into consideration your feedback and see what/if we can implement your suggestions.

 

thanks for your feedback
