FujiRumors has released key information about the new X-E5. It promises to be the best X-mount camera in terms of value for money. It has the best sensor, IBIS, simulation dial and integrated EVF for a price around $1,000!
Here are the first official images of the new Hasselblad X2DII published through the FCC agency. Usually, companies announce the camera before the images are published by the FCC. But I guess Hasselblad delayed the launch of this camera (probably because of the tariff war?).
The specs leaked by the document show:
This is the official description sent by Hasselblad to the FCC:
The HASSELBLAD TM HB722 (MR note: real final name X2DII) is Hasselblad’s next generation mirrorless medium format digital camera with a large 100-megapixel CMOS sensor that boasts 16-bit colour depth and a dynamic range of 15 stops. The camera features a 5-axis 8-stop in-body image stabilization (IBIS) and face detection. Hasselblad Natural Colour Solution (HNCS) technology is integrated into the camera’s system, delivering superb, true-to-life tones that match what the human eye sees. The HB722 offers more storage with a built-in 1TB SSD and users can expand the capacity further with a CFexpress Card Type B. With access to a vast range of high-quality lenses including XCD, HC, HCD, XPan, and V System, the creative possibilities with the HB722 are endless.
Sigma continues to push forward with the release of new lenses, and today I have some exclusive, exciting news to share with you! On June 17, at the BildExpo event (register here) Sigma will announce new lenses:
I have to say that the 17-40mm f/1.8 is particularly exciting as it offers APS-C camera owners the light gathering ability and bokeh quality of an f/2.8 FF lens. Impressive! This lens will probably be optically better and more compact than the legendary 18-35mm f/1.8.
ONE MORE RUMOR:
Sigma is supposed to hold another product announcement event in August/September that will focus more on new full frame lenses. There are rumors of four new FF lenses, I don’t know if 1-2 of them will be unveiled or announced on June 17:
I should have more details on all of these lenses soon. Stay tuned!
In his latest video Jan Wegener shared two insights about the new Canon R6III:
Jan has been proven to be very reliable in the past so I think he will be right on this one too. With this new sensor the Canon R6III would compete with the 33MP Sony A7IV. But at the same time also Sony is rumored to launch a new A7V this autumn!
Full steam ahead! As reported on FujiRumors we are going to get three more cameras from Fujfilm within a short period of time:
So one is the X-E5 coming on June 12. The other two are still we don’t know…
