SmallRig AirTag Generic Base Plate

By Louis Ferreira | Published: February 24, 2024


SmallRig MD4150 Arca-Type Quick Release Plate for AirTag:
B&H Photo / Amazon / Adorama
AirTag:
B&H Photo / Amazon / Adorama

Small Rig has a small generic arca base plate that allows you to attach and hide an Apple AirTag to your camera via a hex bolt. Fujifilm cameras aren’t specifically listed as compatible, but there is no reason they wouldn’t be. This baseplate is quite compact and should even fit the Fujifilm X100 series of cameras, but it might need to be removed to swap batteries and memory cards.

The MD4150 Arca-Type Quick Release Plate for AirTag from SmallRig is designed with a sleek hidden compartment to effectively conceal an Apple AirTag to easily track a camera’s location. The “Find My” function or “Precision Finding” function (in select iPhone models) helps to pinpoint the AirTag’s exact location. The compartment cover is made of PC to avoid interfering with the tracking range of the AirTag and has built-in EVA pads to protect the tag and prevent noise from moving the mounted device.

The Arca-type quick release allows the plate to be quickly connected to tripods and other accessories for shooting. The base has three built-in 1/4″-20 threaded holes, which can be attached to tripod heads, quick release plates, or more. The base of the plate features a strap loop to be compatible with separately available wrist straps.

NOTE: AirTag not included.

Fujifilm’s “We’re Gona Need a Bigger Camera Factory” Moment and The PSAM Mistake

By Louis Ferreira | Published: February 23, 2024


Fujifilm X100VI Silver and Black:
B&H Photo / Amazon (Silver : Black) / Moment / Adorama

Camera sales have been falling for years thanks to cameraphones that consumers deem good enough continue to flood the market so most manufacturers have been able to fulfill the demand behind hot cameras by shifting capacity around, which is what Fujifilm half already done for the X100VI to reach a run rate of 15,000 cameras a month, but that may not be enough.

In China alone, there are reports of 580,000 preorders in a lottery format from one large retailer from asobinet that heavily favors the silver body with 440,000 preorders against 130,000 black. There is also a report on weibo of 480,000 preorders which is another crazy claim. Depending on one Fujifilm decides to allocate cameras it could take years to fulfill the current amount of preorders at a run rate of 15,000 cameras or 180,000 a year.

Hopefully, Fujifilm can allocate more capacity to the Fujifilm X100VI line to avoid profiteering in the after-market, but if they can’t it might be time to consider expansion. There doesn’t seem to be an end in sight for Fujifilm X100 demand and I bet Fujifilm would have had more luck shifting demand to other product lines if they had just preserved their “retro” exposure triangle first design for a few more years instead of pushing PSAM dials on so many of their camera lines because Fujifilm’s “retro” design is exactly why the X100 line has caught fire.

Ten Lens Designs Fujifilm is Studying

By Louis Ferreira | Published: February 23, 2024


Lesnumeriques attended a Fujifilm presentation at CP+ where they discussed 10 lenses they are studying to possibly put into production. Lesnumeriques also confirmed that Fujifilm is still working on the Fujinon GF 500mm f/5.6 that will provide the GFX system with an effective focal length of 400mm which I could have used when I shot the solar eclipse. If the GF500mm is affordable at launch I’m going to have to grab one to shoot the next eclipse with.

Fujifilm X100VI, X100V, XF200mm, XF150-600mm, and GF20-50mm Cross Sections

By Louis Ferreira | Published: February 23, 2024


Fujifilm X100VI Silver and Black:
B&H Photo / Amazon (Silver : Black) / Moment / Adorama

CP+ 2024 kicked off right after the X Summit and Fujifilm has a few cross-sections on display at the event including the Fujifilm X100VI, X100V, XF200mm, XF150-600mm, and GF20-50mm. It’s interesting to see how the density of the layers in Fujifilm X100VI has increased over the X100V that doesn’t have IBIS. The lens cutaways are also interesting, but It would be interesting to see how the Fujinon XF150-600mmF5.6-8 R WR moves through its zoom range internally.
