When photos of the Fujifilm X-T3 have leaked, we didn’t have too much info about what’s hiding on the inside. But now, the specs have leaked as well and we get to see a pretty detailed list of features. Compared to its predecessor, the X-T3 will have improved video and continuous shooting capabilities, along with better battery life. So let’s dive in and see what Fujifilm brings you in the new mirrorless camera.
The Fujifilm X-T3’s specs have leaked on Nokishita Camera’s website, and here’s what is listed (with a little help from Google Translate):
- Equipped with back-illuminated “X-Trans CMOS 4” sensor with newly developed effective pixel number of approximately 26.1 million pixels (no low pass filter)
- High-speed image processing engine “X-Processor 4”
- By increasing the number of phase difference pixels to about 4 times the current ratio, the image plane phase difference AF area is expanded to the entire screen area (about 100%)
- Extended the low luminance limit of phase difference AF from conventional -1 EV to -3 EV
- 4K / 60P 4: 2: 0 Compatible with 10-bit SD card recording in the camera. 4K / 60P 4: 2: 2 Also supports 10bit HDMI output (up from the X-T2’s 4K at 30fps/full HD at 60fps)
- “Sports finder mode” function is newly installed. Blackout-free high-speed continuous shooting at the maximum speed of 30 frames per second is possible within a frame equivalent to 16.6 million pixels (1.25 times crop)
- Newly equipped “pre-shooting” function that starts shooting from the time when the shutter button is pressed halfway and records the shot image by pressing the shutter button all the way
- “Monochrome adjustment” function is newly added to “Film simulation”
- “Color Chrome Effect” function is first installed as “X series”
- USB Type adopts Type-C (USB 3.1 Gen 1) standard
- Standard ISO: 160 to 12800 (extended ISO: 80/100/125/25600/51200)
- Continuous: About 11 frames / sec (mechanical shutter), about 30 frames / sec (electronic shutter, 1.25 times crop)
- EVF: 0.5 type organic EL finder Approx. 3.69 million dots 0.75 times
- Rear liquid crystal: 3.0 type approximately 1.04 million dots 3 way tilt type touch panel liquid crystal
- Film simulation: 16 modes (including ETERNA)
- Wi-Fi · Bluetooth 4.2 installed
- Battery: NP-W126S
- Number of storable pictures: approx. 390 pictures (in normal mode)
- Size: 132.5 × 92.8 × 58.8 mm
- Weight: 539 g (including battery and SD memory card), 489 g (body only)
- Scheduled to correspond to movie shooting with hybrid log gamma method and “Simultaneous film simulation / F-Log simultaneous output” by firmware update through 2018
Fuji Rumors writes that the battery life for video is also extended for 15% (390 shots CIPA standard). As we could have seen from the leaked images, the Fujifilm X-T3 will come in two color variants: black and silver. According to Nokishita, the camera will be ready for preorders on 6 September and start shipping from 20 September.
It’s been rumored that the Fujifilm X-T3 will have no in-body image stabilization. The leaked specs didn’t help us find out whether this is true or not. Oh, and they didn’t tell us the most important piece of information: how many memory card slots will it have?!
