Re: Next X100?

Of course there is a possibility, the current X100 iteration is about two years old. That's not much, but in the past there has been new releases within a two year timeframe. However to my knowledge at least there are no actual rumors suggesting a new X100 might be part of the show and considering the X100V still seems to be selling like hot cakes, I am not sure if Fujifilm is in a hurry to release a successor.

Another reason is the still ongoing shortage of electronical componants and parts, which is haunting many industries worldwide. I am not sure if camera manufacturers, not only Fujifilm, can currently afford to maintain a broader number of products and ensure a steady supply for the market. Last year Sony announced a surprising production stop for certain, even recent, cameras models, in order being able to concentrate production volumes for more popular and requested models. I am not sure if Nikon or Canon did something similar.

Personally I could see this happen, but to be honest I think they are rather concentrating for the X-Mount when it comes to the anniversary event.
