Fuji goes mirrorless with a digital TX system? What we all hear so in german restaurants :)
An anonymous source just got info about a new Fuji mirrorless camera in a very unconventional way:
“I was sitting in a German restaurant yesterday and listened to a conversation of a Japanese guy with a German guy in -broken – English about Fujifilm working on a digital Fuji TX / Hasselblad XPAN like panorama camera with a larger extra wide sensor and the possibility to switch to normal image ratios. The special point was about a nearly doublewide sensor for improving panorama image quality.
Have you heard something about such a camera already?”
So is that the future Fuji TX system? No idea! But it sounds good

Applications for this seem extremely limited.

Let’s wait for a double priced X100 in the unknown future. Ha Ha!
(But you know, it might be a hoax. Just to stimulate Fujifilm considers making this camera. There is no such a conversation, may be)
