Fujifilm Cameras to Come: Fujifilm XF10, X-T3, and GFX 50R

By Louis Ferreira | Published: July 2, 2018


Nokishita published a slight update to their cameras to come list and the planned release date of what is believed to be the Fujifilm XF10 has been removed. The three cameras yet to come from Fujifilm are largely believed to be the Fujifilm XF10, Fujifilm X-T3, and Fujifilm GFX 50R. We should see all three cameras by Photokina, which is what our source that originally leaked all three cameras here first has said in the past.

DPRTV: Instant Film Shoot Out Fujifilm Instax SQ6 & Mini 90, Leica Sofort, Mint Instaflex TL70

By Louis Ferreira | Published: July 1, 2018

Instax is incredibly popular and the guys at DPRTV decided to throw a bit of an Instax party to cover a few popular options. Their shootout between the Fujifilm Instax SQ6 & Mini 90, Leica Sofort, and Mint Instaflex TL70 is a brief one, but the take away is that Instax cameras are far from perfect. Probably the least buggy Instax camera of them all right now is the Leica Sofort.

Venus Optics Laowa 9mm f/2.8 ZERO-D Reviews and More

By Louis Ferreira | Published: June 30, 2018

I really like the Venus Optics Laowa 9mm f/2.8 ZERO-D on my Fujifilm X-T2 and even on the X-H1, but it’s a great lens for any camera in Fujifilm’s lineup. It would be great to get out and shoot some astrophotography with the ultra-wide 9mm Laowa, but the weather has been bad around the past few new moons. The construction of the Laowa 9mm and it’s lightweight build makes it very easy to carry around in your camera bag or even pocket so there really isn’t an excuse to leave it home, but you have to find the right subject to make it shine.
