Fujinon XF 200mm f2 OIS WR Round-up


Now that the Fujinon XF200mm is shipping there are a few new reviews out worth sharing. So far I have only come across two complaints from reviewers about the XF200mm. The First is that the XF200mm does not have a drop in filter like other lenses its size so you have to buy a big 105mm filter if you want to use one. The Second complaint is a less valid complaint and it comes from full-frame DSLR users that like to review Fujifilm camera, they wish that Fujifilm didn’t use a crop sensor. Beyond that everyone seems pretty happy with the XF200 even though few will purchase theFujinon XF200mm f/2 R LM OIS WR.

Luminar 3 With Libraries Coming December 18th


With the release of ON1 2019 the other day there are now details about Luminar 3 coming with libraries December 18th. This will be a free update for Luminar 2018 owners so no need to purchase an update, but if you haven’t purchased Luminar 2018 yet you can use our discount code FUJIADDICT too purchase a new copy or update an old copy of Luminar.

“The new AI-powered filter comes ahead of Luminar 3 with Libraries, which will start being rolled out to Luminar owners on December 18. Skylum has made the unprecedented decision to include every new feature of Luminar — big and small — at no additional cost to current Luminar 2018 owners until late 2019. This will include Luminar 3 with Libraries, which will allow photographers to organize, browse, and edit images on the fly. Additionally, Luminar customers don’t have to pay an annual subscription fee.”

With the release of ON1 2019 and Luminar adding digital asset management soon I have been asked by a few photographers which they should get. At this time I would say that I like Luminar the most for quick results, but ON1 is more lightroom like and it even includes an intelligent import from Lightroom function that maintains your edits. I do not think I could pick just one yet so if you like Lightroom maybe give ON1 2019 a try, but if you want to try a very different interface give Luminar at try.

    *Only compatible with H.265(HEVC). Please enjoy with television or display compatible with HLG formats.

Firmware Version:
[ FUJIFILM X-H1 Ver. 2.00 : December 2018 ]

  1. In-body image stabilization and optical image stabilization now work together to improve overall stability
    With an XF or XC optical image stabilized lens, in-body image stabilization worked with 3 axis (up and down / optical axis rotation). The remaining 2 axis (right and left pitch, yaw angle) was controlled by optical image stabilization in the lens. This firmware has a new image stabilization algorithm to allow the in-body image stabilization to work in all 5 axis and to achieve more than five-stops (up to the equivalent of 5.5 stops *7 ) image stabilization by cooperative control according to the types of frequency and blur amount.
    To activate this function, lenses are necessary to be updated to latest firmware version. Please check the latest firmware version from the link below.

    *7Based on CIPA standards. When using XF10-24mmF4 R OIS, XF18-55mmF2.8-4 R LM OIS, and XC16-50mmF3.5-5.6 OIS II.
