Off to test it out, more later

 

[Keith Hollister]

Did you purchase it from Japan or is it a loan from your Fuji buds?

Keith, this one is all mine - my own cold hard ca$h

 

[Keith Hollister]

I decided to sit this one out and wait for a new sensor next year.

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Send this thing to me Chris ...... NOW!!!!

 

[Keith Hollister]

Geez, Dan, go take a cold shower or something

 

[Dan Cattermole]

I live in a cold shower Keith......

 

[Pete Askew]

Blimey, it's tiny! Looks nice though. Looking forward to the next installment!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Here's the first few shots - all JPEGs out of camera as the RAW conversion software hasn't been updated by Adobe yet!

Well, those shots look great - no surprises there. Better or worse than the X-Pro 1 - I can't say. What's your verdict, Chris? The lenses are the same, of course, so what would make a difference?

 

[Pete Askew]

Looking good Chris. What is your impression of the EVF in practice compared with your Canon's OVF?

 

[Beth Carter]

really, really not liking you much right now.

[Dan Cattermole]

Let's not be silly now.....
We all who's it is..... I'll PM you my address Chris.

 

[Stephen McCullough]

What a nice camera. Enjoy!

Part of me wishes I actually need such a thing

It bodes well for those of us who like what Fuji is doing.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

What a nice camera. Enjoy!

Stephen! Where've you been? Missed your contributions...

 

[Nick Lukey]

So tempted, but I will hang fire for the moment, well until I have enough money to buy one.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

I am amazed by the pictures right out of the camera. After I got my two X-E1, ( don't like to change lenses much ), I never actually use raw anymore. I still do some adjustments in photoshop, but here it seems it's not even neccesary, or am I wrong?
All my heavy DSLRs are all sold, and I don't look back. I like the rangefinder form though, but now I may be hooked. Money is no option at this time, I have none.

Too early to tell if they're better images Rob - I'll had ego do some side by side, and even then I', not sure they'll be a noticeable difference in pure IQ.

The X-T1 is supposed to have even lower image noise due to better circuit board design, so maybe that's somewhere I can look for a difference
