FUJIFILM spent most of 2025 in the wake of 2024's X100VI camera, riding the wave of its internet virality to an instantly sold-out product that remains out of stock pretty much everywhere. This year the company delivered three new cameras and a new lens, all of which iterated on their winning X100VI concept.

Wedding and portrait photographers looking for a lightweight, compact system with exceptional performance need look no further than the FUJIFILM X cameras and lenses.
