Fuji announce the X100F, X-T20, XF 50 f/2 R WR

 Another big day for Fuji, with multiple announcements, including the X100F. It gets all the expected updates, including the focus toggle lever and the 24 mp sensor from the XPro 2 and XT-2 cameras. This is a very nice second camera, small and light weight, great for street and casual shooting. This will be a great upgrade for all current X100, X100S and X100T users and anyone looking for great image quality in a small package.

    • 91 AF points, with 40% of the imaging area covered by phase detection points
    • New ACROS film simulation with optional grain simulation (available on all simulations)
    • Built-in ISO dial
    • Built-in three-stop ND filter
    • Electronic shutter with speeds up to 1/32,000 s

    And the X-T20 

    Some consider this the poor mans XT-2, however this camera has some pretty high end specs, although it did not get the focus toggle, it did get a touch screen. The touch screen is the future, so get used to it. I love the touch screen on my 5D Mk IV.

        XF 50mm f/2 R WR Lens

        Another fine lens to add to what I consider the X-Pro series of lenses, these smaller aperture lenses work well with the optical view finder on the X-Pro series.
