In a YouTube video, the company says the update will improve the stability of autofocus subject tracking while shooting video. It’s also adding support for Ambient’s wired Lockit timecode synchronization devices and introducing a new F-Log2 C mode, which the company says will provide a much wider color gamut than the traditional F-Log2 that the cameras already had.

The company says it’s currently “considering further enhancements” and that people should stay tuned. There’s clearly an appetite for more updates among Fujifilm users: currently, the video’s comment section is essentially wall-to-wall people asking why the update isn’t also coming to the X-T5 and the X-S20, and saying that they’re still hoping for additional improvements to autofocus performance in those cameras’ stills modes as well.
The updates for the X-H2, X-H2S, and GFX 100S II are expected to come out in November. We’ll be sure to let you know when they’re officially released and ready to be installed on your camera.

Our DPREVIEW Tribute:
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview closed on 10 April 2023. This difficult decision was part of the annual operating plan review that parent company, Amazon, shared earlier this year.
Over the course of 25 years, DP Review built up a reputation as being one of the most informative places to go for information about that new camera or lens you’re after. DP Review began as an independent reviews site based in the UK in 1998, the brainchild of Philip and Joanna Askey, but it was eventually purchased by Amazon in 2007 and relocated over to Seattle in the USA in 2010.
Cheers DPReview – thanks for the great work and content that guided photographers, videographers and techno junkies the world over!
