Rumors about a new Fuji medium format digital camera have been going around for a while, but today I received information from a good source that next week Fuji will officially announce a new medium format digital camera. This is what I know so far:

  • Medium format camera with a 50MP sensor (not sure if it will be mirrorless, but I doubt they will re-introduce the mirror after making fun of it for years)
  • The camera will be introduced with two new lenses, one of them will be a zoom (30-90mm most likely)
  • The official announcement is expected on September 15th or 16th (the date I got for the US is the 16th)
