FUJIFILM has announced the release date for its compact digital camera “FUJIFILM X100VI” in both silver and black. The launch is scheduled for March 28. The expected retail price is ¥281,600 (tax included).
Announcement of Potential Supply Delays Due to Overwhelming Demand
While the initial announcement indicated a late March release, the specific launch date was revealed on March 7. Owing to demand surpassing expectations, delivery of the product may take longer than anticipated.
