FujiLove MAGAZINE – May 2026

· 7.May.2026

The May 2026 edition of FujiLove Magazine brings together a rich mix of Fujifilm stories, personal journeys, practical techniques, and visual inspiration across the X and GFX world.

The issue opens with Take Kayo, who looks back at the Fujifilm X30 and argues that it may still be the best true point-and-shoot Fujifilm ever made, thanks to its manual zoom, compact body, tilting screen, built-in EVF, and real-camera feel.

Christian Palazzolo shares the remarkable story of becoming an award-winning teen automotive photographer, using the X-T50 to turn a lifelong passion for cars into a growing professional path.

In the main photo essay, David Queenan reflects on his journey from film, darkroom work, and graphic design to Fujifilm landscape photography, presenting calm, minimalist long-exposure images shaped by mist, water, bridges, and negative space.

Charlie Orellana contributes a deeply personal visual story from Guatemala, connecting photography with volcanoes, Mayan culture, ceremony, memory, and belonging.

The From the Feed community section features work by Jahan Emery, James Harriss, Jess Dobrenski, and Gonçalo Carvalho, with stories from Japan, the Thames Estuary, Hokkaido, and Zermatt.

This month’s interview introduces Rebecca Douglas, a U.K. Fujifilm X-Photographer whose work explores nature, conservation, Whale Wise, underwater photography, and our connection to the natural world.

Nina Papiorek continues her “Breaking the Rules” series by defending central perspective as a powerful compositional choice.

In Gear Talk, Rico Pfirstinger explains Fujifilm HDR modes, Piet Van den Eynde explores Luminar Neo presets and AI tools, Bobbi Lane teaches how to master reflections, and Dylan Goldby concludes his focal length series with a deep dive into telephoto photography.

Altogether, Issue 122 is a strong, varied edition: thoughtful, practical, and full of photographers using Fujifilm cameras not just to capture images, but to shape personal ways of seeing.
