New interview with Fuji’s manager (Fuji X-T100 and GFX cameras, Fujinon XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR lens and more)

Mr. Udono from Fujifilm was interviewed by a Taiwanese YouTube channel. Here is the recap from FujiAddict:

Fujinon XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR lens coming this year.
The Fuji X-T100 was designed to fit nicely between the Fuji X-A5 and Fuji X-T20.
Selfie screen could come to more models if customers want it.
Tilty flippy screen wasn’t implemented to keep the X-T100 compact.
No hints about the Fujifilm GFX 50R even with pushing, but Photokina 2018 shouldn’t be missed.
