The Canon EOS RP is essentially a smaller, lighter and cheaper alternative to the imaging giant’s first full-frame mirrorless camera, the EOS R
Just like its bigger sibling, the EOS RP is powered by the DIGIC 8 image processor and boasts Canon’s coveted Dual Pixel CMOS AF. The mirrorless camera houses a full-frame 26.2MP CMOS sensor and is capable of reaching a maximum ISO of 40,000. Alongside Dual Pixel CMOS AF, the EOS RP matches its high-end counterpart’s 88% horizontal and 100% vertical coverage. And – although not quite as impressive as the EOS R’s mammoth 5,655 AF points – the EOS RP still packs a similarly jaw-dropping 4,779 AF positions. It also features Face+Tracking, Eye AF, One-shot AF and Servo AF modes, and those shooting in low light can make use of the camera’s ability to focus down to an impressive -5 EV.

The Fujifilm XF16mm f2.8 R WR Lens expands the X series line-up of compact, lightweight and stylish lenses with a focal length that’s suitable for architecture, landscape and low-light photography Designed for Fujifilm’s mirrorless cameras, the lens features a focal length equivalent to 24mm (in the 35mm format), has a maximum aperture of f2.8 and adopts an inner focusing system driven by a stepping motor for faster and quieter auto-focusing.
Main feature
The lens features 10 lens elements in 8 groups including two aspherical elements. Optimal arrangement of aspherical lenses suppress spherical aberrations and field curvature while maintaining high performance from the center of the screen to every corner.
The lens weighs just 155g and is 45.4mm in length. It is the widest lens of the compact prime lens series. The aperture and focusing rings feature precise click stops and smooth damping for enhanced operation. The metal exterior uses the same design style as XF23mmF2 R WR, XF35mmF2 R WR, and XF50mmF2 WR for a robust, premium feel.
The inner focusing AF system uses a stepping motor to drive lightweight focusing elements for a fast, silent autofocus performance.
The lens is weather-sealed at nine points around the barrel making it weather and dust resistant. It is designed to operate in temperatures as low as -10°C. Used with the weather and dust-resistant FUJIFILM X-Pro2 or X-T1/T2/T3, and X-H1 bodies means users can shoot confidently in light rain or dusty environments without worrying about the conditions.
The Fujifilm X-T3 features a new X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor and X-Processor 4 image processing engine for the delivery of outstanding stills and video. Is this the moment to switch to mirrorless?
Fujifilm has officially announced the new X-T3. The APS-C mirrorless camera boasts superb image quality and an enhanced ability to track a moving subject – AF performance has been significantly improved and the electronic shutter is capable of up to 30fps blackout-free burst shooting. The X-T3 is also the world’s first APS-C mirrorless camera that can record internal 10-bit 4K video at 60fps.
Main features
– The combined might of the X-T3’s X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor and X-Processor 4 is set to deliver superb image quality and the fastest processing in X-Series history.
– The X-T3’s X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor boasts four times the number of phase detection pixels than the camera’s predecessor (the X-T2). This has increased the phase detection AF area to cover approximately 100% of the frame.
– The X-T3’s electronic shutter is capable of blackout-free continuous shooting at up to 30fps. The mechanical shutter is capable of continuous shooting at 11fps (without the vertical grip).
– Improvements have been made to the mirrorless camera’s low-light performance. The X-T3’s native ISO range is 160-12,800 and its low-light AF limit is -3EV.
– Enhanced viewfinder performance should improve the user’s ability to track a moving subject. The new Sports Finder mode is targeted towards action photographers by capturing a 1.25x crop, marked on the rear LCD or EVF. The larger field of view is intended to aid the manual tracking of a subject, while also decreasing the blackout time.
– The X-T3 can capture 4K at 60fps in 10-bit 4:2:0 internal SD card recording and 4K at 60fps in 10-bit 4:2:2 HDMI output (both can be filmed at the same time). Supported video formats include the widely-used MPEG-4 AVC and HEVC for greater data compression.
*As of September 6, 2018, according to FUJIFILM data
Vertical Power Booster Battery Grip VPB-XT3 (designed specifically for the X-T3)
This Vertical Battery Grip is dust and water resistant, and is capable of operating at temperatures as low as -10°C. It houses two batteries, bringing the total number of batteries to three (including the one in the camera body). This increases the maximum number of frames that can be taken per charge to approximately 1,100 (in Normal mode). The camera does not need to suspend its operation to switch to a new battery, even during continuous shooting or video recording.
Main features
– The grip features a variety of buttons to provide the same level of operability when shooting vertically, as you’d expect when shooting horizontally.
– Charge batteries within the VPB-XT3 by using the supplied AC adapter (AC-9VS). You can fully charge two batteries at the same time in approximately two hours.

Features Fujifilm’s Colour Chrome Effect found in the GFX50S
Through three generations of the X-Trans sensor, through many sophisticated viewfinders, and through a smorgasbord of retro-styled camera bodies, the Fujifilm X series has come a long way. Comprising a mix of compacts and CSCs, the series blends vintage cool with serious imaging power.
If you’re new to the series, it’s easy to get lost just finding a place to begin. Read on as we break down the different camera lines within the series, and let us help you find the right Fuji X model for you…
The X100 series
It all began in 2011. Photographers and journalists alike were caught off-guard by one particular announcement at Photokina – a new compact camera from Fujifilm, eschewing the clunky, DSLR-style handling of previous models in favour of a sleek, retro-inspired design that would become the series’ hallmark. That was the Fujifilm X100, then known as the FujifilmFinePix X100, an ungainly middle name that would swiftly be dropped.
Pairing a fixed 35mm lens with a 12.3MP APS-C CMOS sensor (the famous X-Trans sensor debuted a little later), the X100 uses a hybrid optical and electrical viewfinder, allowing the user to switch between the two modes at will.
The X100 was followed up in 2013 with the X100S, incorporating the second generation of the X-Trans CMOS sensor, with 16.3MP of resolution and no optical low-pass filter. The sensor allows for fast phase-detection autofocus with acquisition times as low as 0.08sec. Fujifilm also fine-tuned the controls, responding to some of the criticisms of the X100.
In 2014, Fujifilm updated the line with the X100T, which used the same sensor and lens combination as the X100S but added the option of an electronic shutter capable of shooting at up to 1/32,000sec, as well as built-in Wi-Fi, a more advanced viewfinder, face recognition and more.
Now, this is where it gets slightly confusing, but bear with us. In 2016 Fuji released the X70, which sounds as though it should belong with the X10, X20 and others of that nature, but doesn’t. Whereas those are small zoom compacts, the X70 sports a prime lens and is more like a mini-X100T. So, despite, the name, it really belongs with the rest of the X100 cameras.
The most recent model in the line is the X100F, which was announced in January 2017. The significant gap between models meant considerable improvements, among them the third generation 24.3MP X-Trans III CMOS sensor and the X-Processor Pro image engine. The X100F wowed reviewers and photographers with its fast and accurate 91-point autofocus system, and its large viewfinder with a 60fps refresh rate.

The X-Pro series
The Fujifilm X-Pro1 was the first indication that the X-series could be the real deal for pros, being the first X camera to take XF lenses. Launching in 2012, its sturdy, pro-quality build was an indicator of the quality within. It was the first camera to use the now-famous X-Trans sensor, and its resolutely dial-based control system won over legions of photographers who wanted a tactile handling experience. Reviews praised its high-ISO performance and its hybrid viewfinder, and the X-Pro1 was a deserved smash hit.
Photographers had to wait four long years for the difficult second album, but happily Fujifilm didn’t bottle the sequel. The X-Pro2 was an update with everything pro photographers wanted, delivering the latest X-Trans sensor to provide lossless compressed 14-bit Raw capture, as well as a wider ISO sensitivity range which could be used for both Raw and JPEG shooting (many previous X-series models would only shoot JPEGs) in the higher ISO bands.

The X-H series
The Fujifilm X-series has unquestionably been an enormous success for photographers, revitalising the brand’s fortunes with a superb selection of stylish cameras. However, there’s generally not been a lot to tempt videographers away from reliable workhorses like Canon or exciting upstarts like Sony.
The Fujifilm X-H1 represents the first real attempt to change that. Announced in 2018, the X-H1 is capable of 4K/30p 4:2:0 8-bit internal recording at a maximum of 200Mbps, with an HDMI out and a new dedicated video menu. Full HD video can also be captured at the super slow rate of 120fps, while there’s also F-log video recording direct-to-card available. All of Fuji’s film simulation modes can be used on video footage, and there’s an external microphone socket as well as a headphone jack for monitoring audio.
The X-H1 is also the first in the X series to come packing in-body image stabilisation (IBIS), and it has an overhauled design with a larger grip and new leaf-spring shutter release button. The shutter sound is also the quietest in Fujifilm’s stable.
The X-H1 represents an exciting move forward for the X-series, and promises that Fujifilm isn’t done innovating just yet.
Fujifilm X-H1
Sensor: 24.3MP X-Trans CMOS III APS-C sensor
Burst speed: 14fps
ISO range: 200-12,800 (expandable to 100-25,600)
Viewfinder: 3.69-million-dot hybrid viewfinder
Max video resolution: 4K/30p 4:2:0 8-bit internal recording at a maximum of 200Mbps
The X-E series
After the much-hyped announcement of the X-Pro1, enthusiast and amateur photographers were very interested to know when they could get hold of an interchangeable-lens X-series camera that wouldn’t cost them the earth. That came in the form of the X-E1, a slimmed down X-Pro1 that gave prospective X-system users a second body option. It used an EVF instead of the hybrid viewfinder of the X-Pro1.
This was followed up with the X-E2, boasting 60 improvements over its predecessor including the X-Trans II sensor, built-in Wi-Fi and an improved EVF. Fujifilm refreshed this camera with a minor update in 2016 — the X-E2S, which boasted a few tine-ups such as a higher ISO ceiling, improved autofocus and a new electronic shutter offering maximum shooting speeds of 1/32,000sec.
The following year, Fujifilm delivered the X-E3, a more comprehensive update with the latest in sensor technology. A larger shooting buffer, a faster autofocusing algorithm for improved tracking, 4K video recording and a redesigned ergonomic body were just some of the improvements that made the X-E3 as well-received as the cameras that came before.

Max video resolution: Full HD at 60p
Fujifilm X-E2
Sensor: 16.3MP Fujifilm X-Trans CMOS II APS-C sensor
Following the success of the X-Pro1, Fujifilm set about bolstering its high-end offering with the release of the X-T1 in 2014. The 16.3MP X-Trans CMOS II sensor and X-Processor II are housed within a weather-resistant body designed for rugged, outdoor shooting, with 75 seals designed to keep out dust and water. Add on a beefed up LCD and viewfinder, an optional battery grip and improvements in burst shooting and AF speed (a lean 0.08 seconds), and you’ve got a camera with the imaging spec of contemporaries like the X-E2, but with the build, features and ergonomics required by pros.
Of course, not everyone can afford the pro price tag, and Fujifilm went about wooing those with a little less cash to flash by introducing a smaller counterpart to the X-T1 — the X-T10. Featuring the same imaging internals as its bigger brother, the X-T10 provides a compromise with a smaller viewfinder and LCD, as well as a generally smaller body that lacks weather sealing.
When it came time to update the X-T1, Fujifilm delivered the superb X-T2, outfitted with the latest-generation sensor and an overhauled AF system, as well as a viewfinder offering twice the brightness of the X-T1’s. The X-T2 was also the first member of the X series to offer 4K video recording, shooting a bit rate of 100Mbps and at a maximum resolution of 30p.
In a move that surprised nobody, Fujifilm also brought out a miniature version of the X-T2, the X-T20. It followed the format of the X-T10, using the same sensor as its bigger brother, but skipping a few features such as a second card slot and a fully articulating screen in order to deliver a smaller camera, for a lower price.

The XQ series
A selection of dinky, pocketable compacts, the Fujifilm XQ cameras are ideal for enthusiasts who need something light. Despite its size, the XQ1 manages to pack in some advanced features such as Raw shooting, while its successor the XQ2 adds the Classic Chrome film simulation mode and a retro black finish.

Viewfinder: No
The X-A series
The X-A compact system cameras are the cheapest interchangeable lens cameras in the Fuji line-up, designed with the entry-level user in mind. The range has gone through a fair few models: first the X-A1 in 2013, which offered a small and light body to use X lenses on, without the X-Trans sensor. This was followed by the X-A2, which was billed as a selfie camera thanks to its about-facing LCD screen and variety of selfie-modes. Fujifilm next bulked out the line with a more advanced offering, the X-A3, and a new slimmed-down entry-level model, the X-A10. Finally, in 2018 came the X-A5, which brought in phase-detect AF tracking and limited 4K functionality.

The X_0 series
The X_0 cameras are another compact range, smaller and less prestigious than the X100 series, with zoom lenses rather than primes. With more affordable price tags, they are ideal for the beginning photographer or light traveller, and have actually been around more or less since the series’ inception, with the FinePixX10 debuting shortly after the X100 in 2011, sporting a smaller 2/3-inch sensor and a 28-112mm equivalent lens. This was replaced in 2013 by the X20, which sported a new 2/3-inch X-Trans CMOS II sensor and a new viewfinder, and then the X30 the following year, which ditched the optical viewfinder in favour of an electronic model.
Fujifilm X30
Sensor: 12MP 2/3-inch X-Trans CMOS II sensor
Lens: 7.1-28.4mm Fujinon lens (equivalent to 28-112mm on a 35mm format)
Fujifilm have a new high-performance camera in the X Series range – the flagship X-H1.
It’s the first X Series camera to feature in-body image stabilisation (IBIS). Three accelerometers, along with Gyro sensors and a specially developed dual-processor work seamlessly together to give up to 5.5 stops of stabilisation, even with XF lenses that do not have built-in stabilisation technology.
Sporting a robust magnesium alloy body, the X-H1’s lightweight construction maintains a strong resistance to impact damage, while the external surface provides dust and water resistant properties and a hard scratch-resistant coating.
The X-H1 uses Fujifilm’s tried and tested 24.3MP X-Trans APS-C sensor first seen in the X-Pro2 and X-T2 and delivers high quality images with Fujifilm’s excellent colour reproduction.
The body styling is very reminiscent of the GFX 50S with a crisp LCD on the top panel and the deeper than usual hand grip makes the X-H1 very stable in the hand.
Having listened to feedback from professional photographers, Fujifilm have incorporated many improvements to existing X Series features; a new AF-ON button on the back of the camera makes AF operation accessible with your thumb and a focus lever allows the user to quickly select a focus point. The X-H1 also boasts the quietest shutter sound in the X Series range, making it ideal for wedding, sports and wildlife photographers and a redesigned leaf-spring switch on the shutter release gives a more tactile feel.
Video options
Serious videographers haven’t been forgotten either. The X-H1 is the first X Series camera to feature Fujifilm’s new ETERNA cinematic film simulation mode, which creates subtle colours and rich shadow detail, greatly enhancing the post-production creative process. Other video performance improvements include a 1080/120P high-speed video mode (1/2, 1/4 and 1/5 speed slow motion) for recording spectacular slow-motion footage, F-log SD card recording which aids smooth workflow, a DCI 4K shooting mode (4096 × 2160), a 400% dynamic range setting (approximately 12 stops), 200 Mbps high bit rate recording, a high-sound quality internal microphone (24 bit/48 kHz) and verbal time codes.
A dedicated battery grip, the VPB-XH1 is also available which gives extended frame rates when shooting stills and extended movie recording times for video.

Movie recording: 4k (4096 x 2160), 2K (1920 x 1080) & HD (1280 x 720)
Alongside the new X-H1, Fujifilm have also announced 2 new dedicated high-performance cinema lenses for the X Series cameras, the MKX 18-55mm T2.9 & MKX 50-135mm T2.9
Both lenses comprise an advanced optical design using 22 elements in 17 groups and use ED & Super ED elements to ensure edge-to-edge sharpness and superb colour fidelity. Manually controlled zoom, focus and iris rings make usability extremely comfortable and a long 200º focus travel ensures precise and accurate focus at all focal lengths. Focus-shift while zooming is eliminated thanks to the front focusing group of lens elements and the zooming group of lens elements being driven independently from one another. The constant T2.9 aperture also means that no exposure compensation is required when reframing during a zoom.
Fujifilm have today launched the Fujifilm Professional Service (FPS) and we’re proud to announce we will be an official Service & Support Centre, working in conjunction with Fujifilm to offer benefits to FPS members.
With the increasing numbers of professional photographers switching to Fuji mirrorless cameras like the X-Pro2 and X-T2, and also with the launch of the GFX medium format mirrorless system in March 2017, there is an increasing need to offer support to these photographers in a similar vein to services offered by Nikon & Canon.
As Fuji products have evolved and are now widely used by professional photographers, it is a natural development that Fixation should be able to offer service support for Fuji products. We are also proud to be a key supporter of the FPS programme. Fixation General Manager
The scheme is open to working photographers who own either a GFX system or at least 2 professional X system bodies and 3 XF lenses. Membership to FPS will be offered free of charge for the first 2 years.
Paul Stewart, long time Fixation customer and professional press photographer, switched to Fuji over a year ago and hasn’t looked back. ” I’m delighted to hear that Fixation will be the London Support Centre for FPS. It’s something I’ve been asking Fuji for and I’m glad they listened!”
Fujifilm’s GFX, X-Pro2 & X-T1 models have been well received by professional photographers
Mick Edwards, Fixation’s Technical Manager will be heading up the Fuji service department: “We’re very excited to take on Fuji as an authorised service centre, allowing us to support our customers as we’ve always done.”
FPS members will be able to take advantage of while-you-wait sensor cleaning, cosmetic repairs and loan stock if equipment has to be sent away for more extensive repair.
