Tokina 23mm f/1.4 and 33mm f/1.4 X-Mount Reviews

By Louis Ferreira | Published: December 31, 2020

Fujifilm is finally starting to attract 3rd party lens manufactures and although many are building off the success of Viltrox I expect we will see more unique designs in the not too distance future. Until then there are now a few new reviews out there for these new Tokina lenses, which are a good value just like their Viltrox counter parts.

michaelburnhamphoto – 23mm and 33mm Review

The Tokina atx-m 23mm and 33mm F/1.4 are quite the dynamic duo. They are sharp where it counts and the auto focus is more than quick enough for anything other than sports shooting. I will keep using them both and publish separate in-depth reviews in the coming weeks because they both deserve it but up to this point I am impressed with what Tokina has done with these lenses and happy to see more lenses becoming available for the Fujifilm X-mount.

paabos – 23mm and 33mm Review

All in all, I find the great build quality, wide aperture and superb autofocus to be great selling points for these lenses. While you have to check the prices for your region, both of them are targeted to be cheaper than the first-party counterparts.

So, should you buy either of these lenses? Ask yourself these questions:

  • Are you going to be using these focal lengths?

  • Do you value the speed and silence of AF?

  • Do you need a wide aperture of f/1.4?

  • Are you looking for a lens more affordable than the first-party lenses?

If you answer “yes” to any of the above, Tokina glass is certainly something you should consider in your purchasing decision.

Fujifilm Dominates DPR Instagram Rankings

By Louis Ferreira | Published: December 31, 2020


I know many are critical of DPR, but they do represent a large chunk of the photography world and Fujifilm is contining to gain insterest among their folowers. DPR looked at their Instagram statistics to create a list of the most popular cameras on their instagram account in 2020 and Fujifilm snagged 6 out of ten spots including the very top spot. I also wonder what spot #10 would be if DPR didn’t choose to combine Z7 and D850 interest. Oh and Canon is completely missing from the top 10 which is surprising.

  1. Fujifilm X-Pro3
  2. Pixii Camera
  3. Fujifilm X-T4
  4. Fujifilm X100V
  5. Fujifilm X-S10
  6. Sony a7C
  7. Zeiss ZX1
  8. Fujifilm X-T3
  9. Nikon Z7 and D850
  10. Fujifilm GFX 100

DPRTV: 2021 Camera Industry Predictions – New Cheaper GFX100 and X-H2

By Louis Ferreira | Published: December 30, 2020

DPRTV released its predictions for 2021 and it is not looking good for some companies. It’s also interesting that they believe companies like Canon and Nikon won’t bother pursuing APS-C if there arent changes this year, which might be a good move. Fujifilm is currently the king of mirrorless APS-C even though cameras like the Sony a6000 sell very well. Sony is the only company that could really hurt Fujifilm in the APS-C mirrorless space, but so far they haven’t shown a lot of interest in seriosuly pursing the market. As for DPRTV’s predictions about Fujifilm they come down to:

  • Fujifilm will continue to make progress in the video market since they made a lot of progress in video with the X-T3/X-T4
  • Features that were missing from the X-T4 will be in the X-H2 like a built in headphone jack, better cooling, and higher resloution viewfinder
  • Fujifilm will release a smaller and less expensive 102MP camera with a lower resolution display and worse battery life

The predictions sound pretty spot on to me and are logical leeps just like a lot of the other “rumors” out there, but COVID really has made a mess of everything. The companies that do not survive will make more room in the market for Fujifilm to grow, so if they do a great job with the X-H2 and next GFX then it might help attract some of the photographers that will be jumpingship from failing companies. Thankfully Fujifilm is a big healthy company that is interested in continuing in the camera business so even if we have a few bad years going foward it is a safe bet that they will weather the storm.

Fujifilm SARS-CoV-2antigen Test Kit Using Silver Amplification Immunochromatography Method

By Louis Ferreira | Published: December 29, 2020


Fujifilm applies for manufacturing and marketing approval for a SARS-CoV-2antigen test kit using silver amplification immunochromatography method*
Capital investment for Vietnam production site decided, to provide a stable global supply
TOKYO, December 17, 2020 — FUJIFILM Corporation (President: Kenji Sukeno) is pleased to announce that it has filed an application with the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency to obtain manufacturing and marketing approval for a rapid and simple antigen test kit for detecting SARS-CoV-2, using silver amplification immunochromatography method*, as in-vitro diagnostic medical device. This kit has been developed with the use of highly-sensitive detection technology based on silver halide amplification response used in the photo-developing process.

In a bid to establish a production structure for this test kit, Fujifilm is making a capital investment in FUJIFILM YUWA MEDICAL PRODUCTS VIETNAM COMPANY LIMITED (Head office in Bình Dương, Vietnam), which manufactures Fujifilm’s diagnostics medical products. The investment has been chosen for the third round of a business support program by the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) for diversifying overseas supply chains.

Antigen tests can be carried out quickly and produce results on the spot. Despite these advantages, antigen tests have lower sensitivity than PCR tests and there are growing needs for the improvement of their sensitivity. From their advantages, antigen tests are now being considered globally for use not only at hospitals but also at airports, event venues and other premises as economic activities begin to resume. This has created the need for ensuring stable supply of antigen test kits.

From October this year, Fujifilm and the Public University Corporation Yokohama City University (Kanagawa, Japan) jointly develop the rapid and simple antigen test kit for SARS-CoV-2 using silver amplification immunochromatography method, which is Fujifilm’s proprietary highly-sensitive detection technology. The test kit is due to be produced at Fujifilm’s Ashigara Site in the Kanagawa Factory. However, in anticipation for the product’s global deployment in the future, FUJIFILM YUWA in Vietnam will start gradually reinforcing its production facilities next year to ensure supply stability for the test kit.
