B&H Photo Canceled The Crazy Fujifilm Savings Orders


Well, it looks like all of the crazy savings are coming to an end at retails when they make mistakes. Amazon recently canceled a ton of 85mm f/1.8 orders and now B&H Photo has canceled a pricing error of their own. I completely understand where they are coming from, but at the same time there should be some accountability and at the very least an apologetic gift card. It might not seem like much, but at least it is an attempt to make it up to loyal customers.

It’s becoming increasingly difficult to understand what we should expect from companies and pricing on their websites and even in stores. Maybe this will all end up getting litigated in the future so that there are some best practices, but as of this time it is hard to know what to expect.

Nikon Z50 vs Fujifilm X-T30 vs Fujifilm X-E3


Nikon just announced a sub $1,000 mirrorless APS-C camera the Nikon Z50 and Fujifilm has two comparable cameras to compete with it the Fujifilm X-T30 and Fujifilm X-E3. This is a very crowded segment and Sony also has several cameras that might compete with the Z50 too.

A quick look at the specs below might lead you to believe that Fujifilm has a pretty clear lead over the Nikon, but of course, there are benefits beyond specs that you might want to take into consideration. Personally I think the new Sony a6600/a6100 are bigger challenger to Fujifilm than the Z50, but it’s still worth taking a look at how they compare.

If you want to see how the Fujifilm X-T30/Fujifilm X-E3/Nikon Z50/Sony a6100 compare you can do so here. Bellow, you can see how the Fujifilm X-T30/Fujifilm X-E3/Nikon Z50 compares. The above comparison is from Camerasize.

Crazy Fujifilm Savings Due to HUGE B&H Photo Pricing Error


B&H Photo currently has some pricing errors that I have been reluctant to post because I am pretty sure these orders will be canceled (Amazon recently canceled a ton of Sony orders for the same reason), but hey if the deal works out than why shouldn’t my readers benefit. If these get canceled hopefull B&H will issue gift cards like Amazon did.

UPDATE: It looks like B&H might have pulled the savings, so now we all wait to see if they honor the pricing, but feel free to keep trying. They removed the select button, but there might be other ways like mobile.

The Fujifilm X-H1 Base camera can be bundled with the XF16-55 f/2.8 for $199, XF18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 for $199, XF90mm f/2 for 149 and 8-16mm for $799.
This discount works with one or multiple lenses and I ordered the 16-55mm and 90mm with the X-H1 for myself.

Not as good of a deal the Fujifilm X-T3 can be bundled with the 16mm f/1.4 for $399.00, 56mm f/1.2 for $399, and 10-24mm f/4 for $399.

Fujifilm Registers Another Camera F190005


Fujifilm still has the F19002 coming that is probably the X-Pro3. Now we have the the FF19005 registered to, so maybe we are looking at a future Fujifilm X-T4 or X100/X200 camera that could be the Fujifilm X100V or X200.

Fujifilm’s unpublished camera “FF190005” has been registered with an overseas certification body. It is equipped with Wi-Fi (2.4GHz) and Bluetooth4.2.

If one of the cameras is an X100 I hope that it is designed like the Fujifilm X-Pro3. It could be something else all together like a GFX50 update, but I do not think that is likely at this time. A X-T update or more likely X100 update are probably what we can expect.
