For months, the X-T6 was rumoured for an X Summit announcement in early September 2026. On 7 August, Fuji Rumors said, citing several sources, that the September announcement had been cancelled because Fujifilm needed more time on the camera's software. A later post also pointed to component shortages and rising costs.
What happened
On 4 September, Fujifilm announced the XF400mmF4.5 R LM OIS WR lens and no new camera.
How sure we are
Wrong: the September launch didn't happen. We keep the page so the record stays honest. The current rumour is November 2026.
