The rumor
E8M_8888 says Fujifilm may introduce a non-stacked 26MP X-Trans CMOS 5 sensor for next-generation mid-range video-leaning cameras such as the X-S line, with 12-bit full-pixel 60fps readout and 4K 120fps. Fuji Rumors disputes it.

Fujifilm's original XF 50-140mm f/2.8 is disappearing from stores as the Mark II nears
Fuji Rumors reports that Japanese retailers Kitamura and Map Camera now list the original XF 50-140mm f/2.8 as discontinued, citing asobinet, and some US stores show it back-ordered with no restock date. Pulling stock like this is usually a sign a replacement is close, which fits the earlier word of a much smaller Mark II without a tripod collar.
Fujifilm X-T6 and XF 50-140mm f/2.8 II: what's real so far
This camera is going to be so sick. It's been a while since the X-T5, and a new body with the latest autofocus improvements is badly needed. I'm hoping Fujifilm has made major autofocus gains, because its current system really falls short. The new 50-140mm sounds like an incredible pairing: a great focal range, and hopefully fast, silent autofocus.
