New FujiFilm X half-frame digital camera teaser for the diptychs feature

15 mai 2025 à 14:41

FujiFilm released a new teaser video “Half the Size, Twice the Story” for their upcoming X half-frame digital compact camera, demonstrating the new diptychs feature:

"A diptych is an artwork, often a painting or photograph, consisting of two related panels, usually joined together by a hinge. The panels can be closed like a book and, in the past, were often used to protect the interior paintings. Diptychs can be used to create a visual dialogue between the two images, capture a single moment in time, or explore a theme over time."

Fujifilm released financial results for the 2025 fiscal year, a statement on tariffs, and registered two new cameras:

10 mai 2025 à 17:09


Fujifilm released its financial results for the 2025 fiscal year, made a statement about tariffs, and registered two new cameras in Asia:

Fujifilm imaging business:

  • Strong sales in instant photo systems and digital cameras drove revenue up by 14.1% year-over-year to JPY115.3 billion and operating income surged 1.9 times from the previous year to JPY24.2 billion.
  • In the Consumer Imaging business, steady demand for instax™ instant photo systems contributed to the increase in revenue.
  • In the Professional Imaging business, sales of digital cameras grew in China and Europe. The continued strong performance of last year’s digital cameras releases, including the X100VI, GFX100S II, X-T50 and X-M5 further bolstered overall sales.


Statement about tariffs:

"The impact of U.S. tariff policies is not factored into the full-year performance forecast stated above. However, as part of our risk assessment, the Company has assumed potential impacts stemming from a 10% general tariff as well as reciprocal tariff increases between the U.S. and China. The potential impact on the projected full-year operating income of ¥331.0 billion is estimated to be a negative USD 140 million as a baseline, with a fluctuation range of USD ±100 million, taking into account such measures as reevaluating our supply chain, further reducing costs, and restructuring our product and pricing strategie to minimize the impacts. Potential impacts from future tariff negotiations between the U.S. and other countries, as well as reduced product demand resulting from reciprocal tariff applications, are not included in this estimate due to the difficulty of making a reasonable assessment at this time. We will continue to pay close attention to these dynamics and take swift and necessary measures to minimize any impact on our performance."

Coming next: Fujifilm price increase in the US

13 avril 2025 à 00:54


A reliable source confirmed to me today that Fujifilm has suspended orders for the GFX100RF, X100VI, and X-M5 cameras in the US. It looks like the company will very soon implement significant price increases (in the US only) due to the new tariffs introduced by President Trump, just like Canon and Blackmagic. It is unclear if the new price increase will impact all Fujifilm products or only the suspended models.

As I already mentioned, there will be more price increases to come. If you are planning on purchasing new gear, now would be a good time to do so since I expect more prices to be adjusted in the coming weeks. B&H and Adorama are currently closed for the next 10 days, but you can check our sponsors AmazonPaul's Photo, and Service Photo for your photo equipment needs.

How will the new Trump tariffs impact the camera and lens imports to the US?

Fujifilm sold 100 million Instax cameras since 1998, announced a new INSTAX Mini 41 model

8 avril 2025 à 16:17



Fujifilm officially announed the previously rumored INSTAX Mini 41 instant film camera:

  • Accepts INSTAX MINI Instant Film
  • 60mm Lens with Selfie Mirror
  • Automatic Exposure and Automatic Flash
  • Adjusts Shutter Speed Automatically
  • Dedicated Selfie/Close-Up Shooting Mode
  • Optical Viewfinder with Target Spot
  • Two AA Batteries

Automatic Exposure functionality

The Automatic Exposure function automatically senses the level of ambient light when the shutter button is pressed, optimizing the shutter speed and flash output according to the scene. It allows users to produce high-quality photo prints on-the-spot in a variety of interior or exterior environments.

Close-up Mode with Parallax Correction

Mini 41’s close-up mode features Parallax Correction, which helps center close-up images (including selfies) by adjusting the position of the ‘focus’ mark to the lower left of the frame.

Updated, easily portable design

Building off the classic design elements of its predecessor, the textured, tactile body of mini 41 provides secure, ergonomic grip, and the subtle metallic-like finish and orange color accents add unique design elements to the camera body.

Fujifilm expected to set another record revenue year for their Instax camera line

New Fujifilm interview: X100VI supply and production, X-E + X-Pro updates, and more

24 mars 2025 à 00:56


Here is the recap of a recent Fujifilm interview with Dpreview:

  • Fujifilm X100VI preorders were so large that some people have been waiting for a year to receive a camera.
  • The X100VI has been shipping continuously throughout the year
  • Fujifilm was caught off guard by the X100VI because preorders were 3-4x the volume of previous X100 cameras so they sold in one year what would typically take 3-4 years to sell
  • Ramping the X100VI was more difficult than other cameras because premium products are harder to mass-produce
  • The Sharp edges of the X100VI are made of aluminum which is stamped and milled before color details are added.
  • Fujifilm is continuing to do the best it can to produce more cameras and they are not constraining supply artificially
  • Fujifilm AF has always been a topic of discussion, but the recent issues have been addressed and Fujifilm plans to continue improving AF performance
  • Fujifilm’s AF has had to address new concerns in recent years as Fujifilm has launched telephoto lenses for birding and more
  • Sports and action photography aren’t Fujifilm’s strength, but they are working to get better
  • Fujifilm still plans to launch a successor to the X-Pro3 but hasn’t picked a date yet
  • Fujifilm will also continue the X-E line but it might return to its enthusiast photographer roots since the X-T line has grown
  • There is no such thing as a perfect camera so Fujifilm continuously works on all its cameras
  • One of the managers joked that everyone would be surprised if the next X-E camera wasn’t rangefinder-styled
  • Some people really liked the X-E4, but some did not, Fujifilm does its best to satisfy the majority of photographers
  • The next X-E camera will be for photographers who love rangefinder-style cameras but don’t have a specific subject in mind
  • The next X-E will be more snapshot-focused with an emphasis on style and design
  • Fujifilm fans shouldn’t be worried about the company’s efforts to expand appeal because it makes Fujifilm’s cameras more focused
  • The X-H being more hybrid focused allowed the X-T5 to only have a tilting screen instead of a flip-out screen which some didn’t like
  • Fujifilm believes it can have more distinction between its still and hybrid cameras
  • Fujifilm just needs to be mindful of its audience to provide the right fit
