FujigraphyCiting the Japanese site asobinet, Fuji Rumors reports that the retailers Kitamura and Map Camera now list the original XF50-140mmF2.8 as discontinued. Fuji Rumors expects a Mark II to be announced with the X-T6 in November, much smaller than the original and without a tripod collar.
What it means for recipes
Nothing directly. Lenses don't change film simulations.
How sure we are
Unconfirmed. Discontinued listings at shops are real evidence that something is changing, but the size, the missing collar and the timing come from one rumour site.
