Right now, Fujifilm is discounting obsolete models and specific accessories by attaching the deals to more attractive new models.

 

End of September is the end of H1 for Fujifilm. Back that date up at least 30 days for accounting and add at least 30 days for a buying window and it may not be long at all to determine whether Fujifilm will offer a sale before the next opportunity; i.e., fall/winter shopping season (holidays).

 

For the end of the fiscal year in March, which is a harder deadline, any sales should wrap up by the end of January.

 

With the USD appreciating against the JPY since the Fed raised a key, short-term interest rate, there is a chance of a very small sale based upon increased USD valuation but I would not count on it. Sales, to me, seem to be driven by volume targets and Fujifilm has been increasing market share in ILC cameras. Lenses made in the Philippines may eventually see a price reduction, though there may be a delay while the Philippine factory raises efficiency after the work transfer from Japan.

Summer Savings sale ending in a few days; Fujifilm will be considering whether they need to launch another sale before the end of the first half of the fiscal year to move more product or wait until the holidays. Keep your fingers crossed.

      GFX 100s not connecting to Mac via USB-C

      By jerryy · Posted

      I am glad to read you are able to get this up and running. Pretty much as long as you connect connect the camera and turn it on, wait a few moments for the computer to register the connection and then you can then use Image Capture (which actually is a very decent program with a lot of options for transferring images from cameras to the computer) or Lightroom to move the images to your library. There are some drawbacks; connecting to the computer while it is in sleep mode will waste your time, the connection will not get recognized— you will have to unplug the camera, wake the computer and start over. Trying to connect while the screen saver is running may work, it may not, often not. If the computer goes into screen saver mode while the camera is connected and sitting idle, it usually stays connected when coming back out of screen saver, but if the computer mputer goes into sleep mode, the connection gets dropped and you have to unplug it and start over. I suggested having the camera turned off while connecting, this is to lower the possibility of static electricity discharges frying either the camera or the computer or both. A lot of times you can connect while the camera is turned on, but not always, sometimes you have to unplug, turn it off, reconnect and turn it back on. A lot of this comes from Apple’s approaches towards keeping USB devices from hijacking your computer, some is just hubris and some is the vagaries of chance. p.s. Your laptop should be able to connect to the camera.

      X-T4 accept external timecode?

      By simonhuegly · Posted

      Hi Chas, I am just fallen into the rabbit hole of investigating how to upgrade my X-T4's video sound... Loving the idea of time code sync, I am now quite concerned that the X-T4 doesn't support it, although I have already seen different statements on the net, like here:  https://youtu.be/xja27RmvbhE?si=hIch3Tu_MH_pWSBH&t=571 I have to admit, this guy's "explanation" gets quite confusing in his further discourse ...:) BUT, as you wrote that you use Tentacle Sync for Windows!, did you also try with their windows-only software "Time Code Tool" which you find here?: https://tentaclesync.com/timecode-tool   Would love to here if you found a workaround with the XT4 Best, Simon

      GFX 100s not connecting to Mac via USB-C

      By jmm123 · Posted

      Wow Jerry, Simply Wow and thanks: I switched off camera. Connected Cam to Mac with USB-C Switched on cam Looked at system report which said Camera PTP Then opened up Image Capture (I never even knew IC was still on the latest macOS) and the files on the GFX showed up. Then opened up LR and FINALLY GFX images showed.   Interestingly like all the cameras - You don't get to navigate to the /DCIM folder - but that's no big deal. *** But for the exercise I tried this on my Intel MacBook Pro running Monterey - but no luck there with the above steps (No big deal). I hav Eno idea how this even started to work - Is it the process of Looking at Sys Report or Just the fact that I opened it on Image Capture   OR that I Connected first THEN Switched on the camera.  What actually made it work? The Irony is I don't think Fuji Support in Aust have any idea about this as they have been stumped over this for the last few months.   Thanks Again  - truly appreciated!! John
