FUJIFILM X-T3 and X-H1 Firmware Updates Now Available

FUJIFILM issued new firmware updates for its X-T3 and X-H1 camera today. These are free updates, but please be aware that the much anticipated “recording over 4GB movie file as one file” update on the X-T3 has been suspended. FUJIFILM will announce the schedule of releasing an additional firmware update with that feature during January 2019. (FUJIFILM X-H1 does get the “recording over 4GB movie file as one file” feature).

FUJIFILM X-T3 – Recording over 4GB movie file as one file coming in 2019

FUJIFILM X-T3 Firmware Update

FUJIFILM X-H1 Firmware Update

Also, a new firmware update is available for the FUJIFILM X-H1. The main improvements are:

  • In-body image stabilization and optical image stabilization now work together to improve overall stability. (You might need to update your lens firmware for best performance.
  • Recording over 4GB movie file as one file (Movie files are no longer split when the file reaches 4GB file size. The file is recorded as one file providing an SD memory card greater than 32GB is used)

Ver. 2.00 firmware is a free update, and you can download it here

FUJIFILM GFX 50S

For photo enthusiasts, the FUJIFILM GFX 50S has an update too. The new firmware adds a new 35mm format mode, that is available when GF- and H-mount adapters are used. This mode creates a 30.5MP image by cropping the large 43,8 x 32,9mm sensor into a more traditional 36mm x 24mm.

Ver. 3.30 firmware is also a free update, and you can download it here.

If you are an X-T3 owner. Will you still update your camera although the anticipated recording over 4GB movie file as one file has been removed? Let us know in the comment section below.
