Best Fujifilm cameras to buy in 2026: retro-styled mirrorless and compact cameras to give you the Fujifilm look
Amateur Photographer’s Fujifilm buying guide compares the brand’s current cameras, from new models to second-hand bargains, with an emphasis on retro-styled mirrorless and compact bodies. The selection is based on models tested by Sam Kieldsen and the magazine’s team, and is aimed at photographers who want Fujifilm’s distinctive look for stills and video. The broader buying context includes compact-camera choices, the APS-C versus full-frame decision, alternatives to the X100V and X100VI, and camera value across different budgets. Because the guide spans both current and used options, photographers can approach it as a shortlist rather than assuming the newest body is automatically the best fit. Compare sensor format, lens needs and intended use before choosing.
The rewind: all the cameras and lenses launched this week
DPReview’s weekly “rewind” is a recap of the cameras and lenses launched during the week. The supplied report does not identify the individual products, specifications, prices or availability, so there is no reliable basis for treating it as a detailed buying recommendation. Its value is organizational: it gathers the week’s announcements in one place for photographers tracking new equipment across both cameras and lenses. For a serious purchase decision, the practical next step is to separate products that are merely announced from those with confirmed shipping information, then compare their specifications and compatibility with an existing system. Until those details are available, the recap is best used as a prompt to identify which launches require closer technical evaluation.
Canon's EOS R8 Mark II Shoots up to 40 fps and Adds In-Body Stabilization for Less Than $2,000
Canon has announced the EOS R8 Mark II, a 24.2-megapixel full-frame mirrorless camera expected to ship in late October for an estimated $1,899 body-only. It adds five-axis in-body stabilization while retaining electronic-shutter bursts of up to 40 fps, and Canon says autofocus tracking is more tenacious than on the EOS R8. The approximately 1.2 lb body also brings 6K-oversampled 4K 60p, Register People Priority and a multi-controller. Canon reports 58% more uninterrupted JPEG frames and 30% more raw frames, with specified maximums of about 190 JPEGs or 73 raw files using a 128GB UHS-II card. Coordinated stabilization works with optically stabilized lenses, while the electronic shutter does not support flash. For action, low-light and handheld video work, this combines speed and stabilization in a relatively light full-frame body.
