Pixel Village and GMax Studios were invited by Fujifilm for a tour of Japan, during which they visited Fujifilm Factory at Sendai, CP+ 2019 at Yokohama, Interviewed senior Fujifilm officials and Tested their yet to be launched camera X-T30. The video is filmed with a Fujifilm X-T3 and an X-T30. I only mention this because at the beginning of the video when they are traveling to the factory they pass a train at over 300km/hr and the image holds up well, which is impressive. Below are some points from after their arrival:
Fujifilm produces 70 GFX50R over an 8hr shift
The guests try to replace the leather on an X-H1 as quickly as an employee and fail miserably, she manages the replacement in 1m 50s.
There is also a look at the red badge lens assembly clean room
The guests then try to align a lens on their own
Labels are added at the end of the assembly, but during this shot, there is a blurry section of the room
They even got a tour of one of the clean rooms, but they couldn’t film during this tour so they discussed it when it was over
The people taking the tour said they saw world class stuff on their tour including robots putting the mount together
Fujifilm let them try cleaning a lens element during their tour
Fujifilm even listens to how the lens sounds during inspection
Fujifilm’s passion for excellence came across throughout the tour
At the end of the tour, Fujifilm has a feedback session that’s like a Q&A that could help them improve their quality, which the attendees compare to “Showing a light to the Sun”
