Fujifilm X-T3: Fringer EF-FX Smart Adapter Firmware 2.40 Released For Fujifilm X-T3

By Louis Ferreira | Published: September 24, 2018


Fujifilm X-T3 got much improved AF performance. I found it’s so far the best X camera that can use adapted EF mount lenses. Now all its full sensor covered PDAF points are supported. And as the low light AF capability has been improved to -3EV, AF successful rate got greatly improved. Meanwhile, WIDE/TRACKING mode and FACE/EYE focus are all works much better. Please watch this demo video:

The improvements of V2.40 firmware includes

  1. For X-T3 (and all coming cameras with X-Trans IV CMOS), we have optimized PDAF performance of all the lenses (on the tested and optimized lens list). Now you can leverage its full sensor coverage PDAF focus points and get improved AF performance.
  2. Added following lenses to the tested and optimized lens list:
    1. Tamron SP 70-200/2.8 Di VC USD G2
    2. Sigma 70-200/2.8 EX DG HSM OS
    3. Sigma 70-200/2.8 EX DG HSM OS + EF 1.4X II
    4. Sigma 70-200/2.8 EX DG HSM OS + EF 2X II
    5. Tokina ATX 11-16/2.8 PRO DX (I & II)
    6. Tokina ATX 11-20/2.8 PRO DX

Please visit my website to download the new firmware and its release notes.

Fringer EF-FX Pro is open for pre-order now. You may place your order here. The next batch will begin to be shipped before September 28.

Photons to Photos: Fujifilm X-T3 vs X-T2 Read Noise Comparison

By Louis Ferreira | Published: September 23, 2018


Photons to Photos released some interesting Read Noise results for the Fujifilm X-T3 that are worth digging into. We are still waiting for a dynamic range comparison from Photons to Photos, but the new sensor inside the X-T3 does seem to perform better than the old one in the X-T2 in some circumstance based on the data. ISOs between ISO400 and ISO800 should also be avoided. The data can be manipulated here.

Fujifilm X-T3: First Lok – Who Needs Full Frame?

By Louis Ferreira | Published: September 23, 2018

Every time Fujifilm launches a new generation of APS-C camera there is a collective groan from full frame junkies about when will Fujifilm release a full frame camera. The response to this groan is almost always who needs full frame? Thankfully the Fujifilm X-T2 proved a lot of full frame fans wrong and even converted a few, but now the Fujifilm X-T3 is here to continue what the X-T2 started.
