Fujifilm X-T6 in 2024? Let's Talk about it!

[@icogicog8287]

Love your rumors, commentaries and locations. Although I now live in the US for nearly 50 years I first set foot on the Dolomites about 70 years ago and I keep going back as often as I can. Beautiful and very evocative for me. Keep up the excellent work!!!

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

Happy to hear you have some good memories and experiences that connect you with the Dolomites... and I wish you to get many more opportunities to visit them again

[@JoelWolfsonPhoto]

Patrick, I really appreciate the information about the beautiful locations. Look forward to hearing about X-Pro4. For its time, I loved my X-Pro2 bodies. I passed on the X-Pro3. Hoping the 4 will be more useful. With all the "Fujicrons" available, Fuji really needs to make the OVF useful. And ideally add IBIS, and provide a usable (hopefully X-T5 style) rear screen

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

happy to hear you appreciate the locations :)

[@peterleary8738]

Totally agree regarding the xpro4. Hopefully we will get concrete info soon.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

​@@peterleary8738 you will

[@arpitkumargahlot]

@@FujiRumorsOfficial Please give some more leaks in January. The X100 (six) and XPro-4 are still very vague.

[@vitaleaty1674]

I go skiing in the Dolomites every winter since I was a kid. Apart the beautiful landscape, the amazing food is what kept me going back there every year.

[@spamllama]

Thanks for sharing the sights of Italy with us. I intend to go back sometime to see more of your beautiful country.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

You should!

[@kzr83]

Well, at least my X-T5 will be current for longer. Obviously I'm a Fuji fan, and I'll be happy when an X-T6 comes out. But I also have to wonder: what else do people want so quickly on top of what the X-T5 already is and does? 😅

[@cloud-bytes]

Better autofocus

[@ItzZCEHkay]

​@@cloud-bytes it allready uses the Same cpu as the latest gfx100ii. Next would be a x-t5s with 26mp stacked Sensor

[@cloud-bytes]

@@ItzZCEHkay I have the x-t5 and love it but I do mostly street or landscape so I mostly pre-focus or zone focus. If I did wildlife or sports I’d go canon or Nikon. Not Sony as I dislike the colours they produce (personal taste). I meant in previous comment autofocus is ok but lags canon, Nikon, Sony, pentax

[@ItzZCEHkay]

@@cloud-bytes Not at all x-h2s Beats Most of the other Brands in terms of af-performace especially in terms of Speed. Even the x-t5 hast really good but for Sure Not the best af.

[@cloud-bytes]

@@ItzZCEHkay for me it’s fine. Love the ergonomics also. It just isn’t great at holding and tracking subjects that move fast or if there are things like foliage. With Nikon or Canon I never even thought about the focus much. (Except with 85mm f/1.2!)

[@W_F_CZ]

I love these mountains, we are going skiing with our child on Sunday. but this year he missed a bit, unfortunately we are traveling as a group and we didn't have enough room for us this year in our favorite hotel.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

I hope you'll be able to come back here soon

[@OswaldoLafee]

I think the XT5-5 being so new with still last gen technology and also being so small and compact with a large battery will prevent both the Xt-6 as well as the XT-40 (or 50) to come out specially with the XS-20 doing so well…I have the XT-30 and the XT5 and really very happy with both

[@TofuCate]

What are your thoughts now that the X-T50 has come out?

[@hungvu1676]

I'd like to see new X-E series, X-E5 may be with IBIS.

[@juleshorse9056]

I come here for there views! As a skier and hiker, I appreciate them. Oh, and as a XT5 user, the Fuji updates are useful too.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

glad to read you enjoyed the mountain tidbits from my area I hope to be able to keep it up... but won't always be possible to show you around. but when possible, I will

[@MichaelRankine]

Thanks Patrick, new to the channel and new to fuji cameras ever since about 4 months ago purchasing a used XT4. In love with it and looking to grow my collection, keep up the good work. An XT6 would be awesome!

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

Welcome aboard!

[@bmeclipse]

Definitely going to make a trip there.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

you'll love it!

[@jasperkong7514]

I think you're absolutely right. Thanks

[@AstanaYuana]

I really wish X-T40/50 will be here soon. But it is what it is.

[@matthieuzglurg6015]

I don't think that there will be another X-Tx camera in 2024. Several reasons : each time an X-T camera was released, it was because there was a new sensor and processor available (exception made of the X-T4), and there isn't any signs of Fujifilm moving from the 5th gen processor and sensor yet. Matter of fact, they still haven't refreshed their full lineup of cameras yet, the only "lower budget" option with the 5th gen processor is the X-S20 which is more of a mid range camera now. Time between releases is vastly irrelevant. And even if it was, the only thing that Fujifilm could do the X-T line right now would be a refresh of the camera with the same specs. That already happened with the X-T4, but that camera is a really odd one in the whole X-T lineup (I highly suspect that it was supposed to be the X-H2, but that it was quickly switched into an X-T camera after the X-H1 flopped horribly. That would explain the weird viewfinder housing compared to other models, fully articulable screen and the fact that it's internally identical (minus the IBIS ofc) to the X-T3. My guess is that the X-T4 was supposed to be to the X-T3 what the X-H1 was to the X-T2). So even if they wanted to make a refresh, they probably couldn't really do much and that would be seen as a spit in the face for X-T5 users to release an X-T6 that is so similar. In my opinion, the X-T5 is already good enough as it is, other lines need attention from Fujifilm right now (X100, X-Pro, X-E, X-Tx0)

[@Andrews6994]

Buon anno e grazie per il tuo impegno

[@aawonnewton]

What would you even want that the XT5 doesn’t have. Seems like it’s in its final form already.

[@vintageflanker7096]

Plenty of room for improvement for the X-T5. The AF is still way behind the better competitors. The buffer is ridiculously small. The EVF is not as good as X-H2. And so on...

[@aawonnewton]

@@vintageflanker7096 ahh you’re spot on, on all of those. Haven’t shot digital in a while so whenever I pick up my Fuji everything feels so much faster that I couldn’t think of what more a person could want

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

I have the XT-4 and still love it. Didn’t see upgrading to XT-5 as enough incentive. I’m hoping the XT-6 really has some major differences. 😊

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

I upgraded from X-T4 to X-T5. I feel there is a huge difference. More resolution and substantial autofocus speed improvement. Add to this the 3 way tilt screen and I can say I am 100% convinced upgrading was the right choice

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

@@FujiRumorsOfficial Never a bad idea to upgrade. :) But at the time, there were some negatives about the XT-5 in some reviews that made my decision. 1) Despite the difference in sensors and 'resolution': The X-T5 and X-T4 image quality were very similar. The tests I saw bore that out. 2) Most importantly for me, was that eye tracking needed to be on par with Sony and Cannon. Sadly, the XT-5 is still WAY behind. Once that was known to me, I couldn't see upgrading just yet. 3) My other wish is that FUJI make it 'Netflix Compatible'. Although the video for the 4/5 are 4K they fall short. It needs: 10-bit depth. 240 Mbps data rate at 24 FPS. It's VERY frustrating that they haven't crossed the line. All that said, I'm a devoted FUJI user for other reasons like their glass and manual approach. I'm SURE the XT-5 is great camera.

[@richardhale9664]

Nah... Fuji needs a new X100, X-E5 and X-T40 (preferably with the same body as the 10,20 and 30, so your grips still fit). Oh, and a relatively cheap body with a monochrome sensor. If Pentax can do it so can Fujifilm.

[@senorchivo90]

IIRC, Fuji have released or announced 5 cameras since 2022, 4 of which have been PASM (X-H2, X-H2S, X-S20, GFX 100 II) and the other being the X-T5. I don't care that we're not getting an X-T6, I just want literally any product line confirmed to be still alive with the retro dials. They're getting so much buzz and word of mouth for those retro designs, yet haven't released any updates or provided announcements for the X-E, X-Pro, or X-Txx lines. Instead, they're doing the coy, "Will we, won't we? We're gonna be like Apple with our announcements" thing, which tends to not work out for companies in 4th place of niche industries.

[@FlorentCurk]

As usually, just waiting a real camera as I’m a filmmaker ! 😜 (based on the idea of the x-h2s, but with more power !)

[@Louise_D_Myers]

killer narrative patrick, there may well be a lot of merit in what you said.. Btw are you working for the tourism board or something? because you keep selling your city/region like a very good salesman.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

Thanks for your kind words And no, I don't get a single penny from any tourist board (and not even from Fujifilm). If I'd ever get money for filming anything, I would clearly disclose it. I do this really just because I enjoy to show you around. It's just for you guys. And I don't make a penny out of it (I actually lose money, because a video like this costs me more to make than it generates ad revenue)

[@Ch0obyHD]

@@FujiRumorsOfficialmy brother u are a savior and a lovely human being at that, thanks for everything deeply!!!

[@TheRealfubar]

so..as the T will follow the H models... you think there will be an x-h 3 in 2024? 😅

[@triedge6200]

Wouldnt mind a new xh3s higher res stacked sensor with better a better ibis

[@stevegodsell]

Nice Scenery. I'm sure there will be an X-T6 at some point, but Fujifilm are rather behind on the X-Pro, X-E and X100 lines. One or two of these are more likely to be first. Is there really the need for an X-T6 yet, is the X-T5 so out of date already? So many pro-photographers are still using the X-T2, 3 & 4. Apart from the G.A.S. suffering TicTok content creating community, and those who have to have the latest & greatest, the current crop of cameras have functionality beyond the capabilities of most.

[@markc17]

X-E is buried, never again. Sales are still dropping, all lines will be refreshed slower if at all.

[@boblab8097]

X-H1 a failure? Ouch, that's a bit harsh. I still love mine and didn't switch to the X-H2.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

X-H1 is a wonderful camera, but it did not sell well... that's why I call it failure... in terms of sales, not in terms of performance

[@vintageflanker7096]

That was a commercial failure. Whatever how much you liked it.

[@thanyawong]

Pleasr. Fuji X100 Series Medium Format with equivalent full frame fixed lens 35mm. Fuji must do something unique and surprising market.

[@ronald7482]

First we want the x pro 4 😮

[@senorchivo90]

Patrick, lovely photos. How are you liking the 18-135? I just got one myself for hiking and travel and can't wait to take it out more.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

I love my 18-135. It's the perfect allrounder for my hikes and travels, too.

[@JJJLabrador]

Improving focus to the level of the FUJIFILM X-H2S across the range of cameras is the least you can ask of FujiFilm. They still have a long way to go to reach SONY's level of focus.

[@craig_cunha]

X-Pro4 rumours please! 🙏

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

working on it

[@craig_cunha]

@@FujiRumorsOfficial Thanks Patrick! I know that’s the most popular question these days. We really need some solid details on the timeline and some key features. Appreciate everything you do for the Fuji community!

[@patrickspiteri6273]

I really like following your posts [and the beautiful scenery you show us] but I feel like our cameras are becoming like disposable after a few months .... [where some have not even grasped the full extent of what their camera is capable off] those who are not professional and use a camera as a hobby cannot keep buying 1 every 2 years [ now I have an XT2 an XT3 and an XH2s......100-400 and 150-600 fuji lenses....[apart from 3 or 4 bridge cameras] all FUJI ... but you always want the latest and best ..... It would be nice if Fuji keeps boosting our existing cameras...which they do occasionally . thankyou fuji..... but Christmas is here so a bit of serious firmware update would be most appreciated....😄

[@JeDxDeVu]

Would be nice if they had a xpan crop option the the hasselblad has. Such a cool option to have. No reason why they can’t do it.

[@michaelhall859]

I hope your right, I only just bought an xt5 a couple of months ago knowing it would be atleast a year before the 6 comes out 😂

[@carlchenet2506]

Thank you. I like your logic...

[@sinanhancerova]

WE ARE WAITING NEW X80 !!!!!!!!

[@LOLA6ifyable]

I think Fuji will release an X-h3 / X-h3s before the X-t6, I think this is the logical step going forward : The Xh is the the flagship and the Xt will be the fun retro less expensive one. They owe us an Xpro-4 first but current state , it doesn't bode well for the X-pro line which is ashame. Beacuse if they lanch it at 2024 , then start refreshing the lines in 2025 , that means the Xpro line will always be a step behind, I think this line is on it's last legs. It's X-T and x100 from now on.

[@salmanalwastey1433]

I think you for your share nice video. I think they need focus for the series fuji which already very successful, a like Fuji series Fuji X-E, Fuji X-T, Fuji X PRO, And Fuji X100, X200 , Also they need focus on new compact series camera. They don't need launched more for Series a like X-T20, T30 OR H, and S Series which not more attractive photographers and people !!!

[@jcblum1507]

Nice

[@ikeahloe]

If fujifilm thinks that X-H1 failed because of its design, they are idiots. It failed because the sony a7II distrupted the entire industry a month after this and they came out with an entire generation upgrade a few months later with the x-t3 that was faster/better and cheaper, and the x-t3 was the first camera with usable continuous autofocus. At that time, the continuous autofocus was the main thing on people's minds, unlike now since they all work reliably *enough*. I don't really doubt they did moronically think that though, since they destroyed the design with the X-H2S.

[@인생은한번-e5h]

Let's just renew the Zoom lenses!!

[@os6219]

What are you filming with?

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

Iphone

[@JHurrenPhotography]

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas Patrick!! I'm just thinking about how Fuji should make a pair of 70mm lenses. One f/1.4 with absolutely perfect IQ, the other f/2.8 or f/3.5 or however slow is necessary to make it a compact lens for the next X-Pro camera. Wouldn't that be delightful?

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

thanks, Christmas with Family.. nothing more I can wish for. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas too

[@manuelb8808]

What about fujifilm investing in R&D to catch up with the majors on focusing and stabilization!? As of now they have a big gap to close. We know they've got colours and the style but for the technology, they are quite stunted. I've got the XT3 and the XS10 but in earnest, I can't see any substantial progress to warrant a (costly) replacement. I and maybe you, will eventually end up jumping ship.

[@tornadocapoeira]

I wish fuji h3 with better AF and look of h1

[@lesliedellow1533]

Barely a year after the X-T5? I doubt it.

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

Taht‘s why I made this video… two years after X-T5?

[@_o__o_]

patic?

[@FujiRumorsOfficial]

Sorry?

[@rarograr]

Fujifilm won’t release and X-T6 in 24 because the T5 is already the perfect camera in every way. They will first release X-T6 when new tech is available and it makes sense. GET AN X-T5! It is the most amazing camera I have ever owned. If you have a T4, SELL that and get a T5 ❤

If Fujifilm releases XT6 in 2024, I would feel betrayed as an XT5 owner.

[@Nightwatch1986]

Xt-6 ? What is Fujifilm doing? lol 😂

[@sexysilversurfer]

I doubt it as sales are declining. They need more time to recoup costs and they need a huge improvement in specs to get people to spend.

[@KAIHTSAI]

No, Xt-6 is unnecessary. X pro4 should show up first!
