Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.8 V2 Firmware 1.1.0 Adds X-T5, X-H2, and X-H2S Support

By Louis Ferreira | Published: August 26, 2024


This is a bit of a confusing release from Viltrox for the Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.8 V2 because the website says it came out the same day as 1.0.9, but it couldn’t have since my post is from before that time. The new Viltrox website is difficult to track firmware updates on, but I will do my best.

Firmware 1.1.0 adds
1. Adapt to X-T5 X-H2 X-H2S
2. Optimize AF-C speed

Voigtlander Ultron 27mm f/2 and Voigtlander COLOR-SKOPAR 18mm F2.8 ASPH Disassembly

Yukosteel has disassembly instructions for the Voigtlander Ultron 27mm f/2 and Voigtlander COLOR-SKOPAR 18mm F2.8 ASPH. These lenses have electronic connections to the camera and from Yukosteel’s analysis of the electronics the lenses are designed so that if the electronics fail the lens will still continue to function as expected since the aperture ring is mechanical. The electronics only send the position of the ring to the camera so the lens will turn into a “dumb lens” if something happens to the electronics.

Reasonably Priced Used Fujifilm X100 Cameras – They Won’t Last Long

By Louis Ferreira | Published: August 24, 2024


The Fujifilm X100 has been an extremely hot seller and the markup on the used market is obscene, but B&H Photo has some great used X100 cameras.

So don’t miss out these cameras will go quickly once people notice they exist.
