In the lead-up to the highly anticipated Fujifilm X Summit 2025, set to take place on March 20 in Prague, Fujifilm has released a teaser video hinting at an exciting new camera.
The short but intriguing clip suggests a fusion of two of its most popular models – the ever-popular Fujifilm X100 VI and the resolution powerhouse GFX 100S II. If true, this hybrid camera could be a game-changer in the photography world.

The teaser, which has already sparked intense speculation among photographers and industry experts, features subtle visual cues that hint at a blend of the compact, fixed-lens design of the X100 series with the powerful medium-format sensor technology found in the GFX lineup.
Notably, the silhouette of the new camera bears a striking resemblance to the GFX 50R – a rangefinder-style GFX camera that Fujifilm hasn’t updated in several years. The re-introduction of a 50R-style camera with a fixed lens and a 50 or 100MP sensor would make for the ultimate street and travel camera.
Fujifilm’s X100 series has long been beloved by street and travel photographers for its sleek design, portability, and high-quality image output. Meanwhile, the GFX 100S II, with its 102MP medium-format sensor, has become a favorite among professional and commercial photographers seeking unparalleled image quality.
Combining these two cameras in any regard could mean a compact, high-resolution powerhouse that offers both portability and exceptional detail, a dream for many photographers. However, given the potential medium-format sensor, the camera’s size would likely be on the larger side compared.
As expected, Fujifilm has remained tight-lipped about the specifics, leaving fans eagerly awaiting the official reveal. However, if the teaser is anything to go by, this upcoming announcement could mark a significant shift in Fujifilm’s camera lineup, bridging the gap between the X-series and GFX series in a way never seen before.
With just days to go until the X Summit, the excitement is building. Will Fujifilm introduce a groundbreaking new category of cameras, or is the teaser simply a clever marketing tactic? All will be revealed on March 20 in Prague.
