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 / 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 🙂

What does “extra wide” mean, exactly? Wider than 35mm? Medium format? Is it just “wide” and not tall?
Applications for this seem extremely limited.
Not more limited than the original TX. I’m the idea of two APS-C size sensors side by side appeals for quite a few people.
^ was going to say “I’m sure the idea”
this sounds plausible and really interesting 😀
Someone needs to do something ground-breaking. Fuji just might be the ones!
I will buy one! I had the film version of this and it was superb as were the lenses.
MY DREAM CAMERA! If this becomes reality I will never use the phrase “Oh my god” again. I will say “Oh my Fuji” instead.
sounds too good to be true…
I admit that it is abso-fxxking-lutely great news…to hear about that.
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)
The english is really akward, Admin are u maybe german ?
extra wide means take something at the top and bottom away : P
