In a short YouTube video, Yuji Igarashi-san from FUJIFILM made a few announcements regarding a new firmware update for selected FUJIFILM cameras and the upcoming X Summit, so let’s have a look at what he had to say! FUJIFILM’s X and GFX systems, including the GFX 100II, X-H2, and X-H2S that CineD has reviewed, have gained attention for their strong performance in both photography and video. With regular updates and new features, FUJIFILM continues to refine these systems to meet the needs of their users and not less importantly, fix some issues related to the behavior and performance of their current autofocus system. Firmware update In response to user feedback on improving autofocus, FUJIFILM is developing new firmware for the X-H2S, X-H2, and GFX 100II. The update will enhance subject tracking and face/eye detection stability when shooting video. (At this stage, it is not clear if these autofocus enhancements are also for taking photos). Firmware Update coming soon.

A New F-Log2 C film simulation with a Wide Color Gamut coming soon. Source: FUJIFILM Further enhancements are being considered, but the firmware update is expected to be released in November.
