Fujifilm are set to release a new firmware update for the X-H1 camera by the end of March 2018 to address two "malfunctions". They are:

1. In the EF (E-FRONT CURTAIN SHUTTER) setting, the warning of “TURN OFF THE CAMERA AND TURN ON AGAIN” could appear in rare cases when the FLICKER REDUCTION setting is ON.
2. Switching the CUSTOM setting can make the ISO AUTO setting return back to default when the ISO AUTO setting is changed.

The new Fujifilm X-H1 has only been out for a couple of weeks, but the even newer X-H2 is already for sale, at least according to this sales flyer that we spotted on the London Camera Exchange stand at the Photography Show. Either LCE know something that the rest of the world doesn't know, or there's been a slight mix-up with the letters H and T in their marketing department...

Are you patiently waiting for your Sony A7 III pre-order to arrive?

New firmware upgrades have just been released for the Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II, OM-D E-M5 Mark II and PEN-F mirrorless cameras. The updates version 2.0 for the E-M1 Mark II, version 4.0 for the E-M5 Mark II and version 3.0 for the PEN-F are available for download via the Olympus Digital Camera Updater and add new functions and improved performance, along with a new Art Filter to all three models.

Sigma has launched the new 105mm F1.4 Art and 70mm F2.8 Macro Art lenses, as well as announcing that 9 of its Art lenses will be made available for Sony E-mount full-frame cameras.

Sigma's new Sony E-mount lenses will feature a newly developed control algorithm that optimizes the autofocus drive and maximizes the data transmission speed. In addition, these lenses will be compatible with Sony’s continuous autofocus (AF-C) and high-speed autofocus, which are not supported by the current Sigma Mount Converter MC-11.

The brand new Sigma 105mm F1.4 DG HSM Art is the ninth lens in the Sigma F1.4 lineup. Designed for full-frame cameras and incorporating 17 optical elements in 12 groups, this lens offers minimal optical aberration and delivers incredible resolution and stunning contrast with a beautiful bokeh effect.

The brand new Sigma 70mm F2.8 DG MACRO Art is the first Macro lens in the Art range, delivering stunning resolution and incredible clarity, while at the same time offering extremely smooth autofocus performance for a weightier, high-performance lens.

Want to see exactly what the new Canon EOS M50 compact system camera looks like in the flesh?

One of the main criticisms that we've seen aimed at the Fujifilm X-H1 since its launch last week is about its size, with lots of online comments that it's just too big for a mirrorless camera.

To that end, we've gathered a number of different cameras from the far-flung corners of the Photography Blog office, lined them up one-by-one next to the X-H1, and shot each combination from various angles to give you an idea of how they compare in real life.

The cameras are: Fujifilm X-T2, Fujifilm GFX, Panasonic GH5S, Sony A7R II, Sony A6500, Canon EOS 5DSR, Canon EOS 5D Mark III and the Canon EOS 80D.

Remember, this isn't meant to be a scientific test of the X-H1 - we don't have obvious rivals like the the Olympus O-MD E-M1 II to hand - but it does give you an idea of how it compares to cameras from most of the various systems available today (APS-C mirroless, Medium Format, Micro Four Thirds, 35mm Full-frame mirrorless, 35mm Full-frame DSLR, APS-C DSLR).

Take a look and let us know what you think in the comments section - is the Fujifilm X-H1 too big for its boots, or is its size irrelevant?

The Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III RXD is a new high-speed standard zoom lens for Sony 35mm full-frame mirrorless cameras. Currently under development, the 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III RXD is Tamron's first ever lens for the Sony FE system. It incorporates an all-new high-speed and precise AF driving system called RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) which operates with remarkable quietness, making it perfect for video use. It's also compatible with the “Direct Manual Focus (DMF)” feature that enables Sony cameras to instantly switch between autofocus and manual focus.

The Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III RXD will be available from mid-2018, price to be announced.

Wondering how your Fujifilm lenses will work with the new X-H1 camera's built-in stabilisation system? Wonder no more, as we've compiled a chart, courtesy of Fujifilm, of all the XF and XC lenses and how many stops of stabilisation they provide when mounted on the X-H1 (according to CIPA standards).

We've spent the last couple of days shooting with the new Fujifilm X-H1 compact system camera in Lisbon, Portugal, in a wide variety of different scenarios. Check out our first impressions of using the exciting Fujifilm XH1 camera now...
