Yeah, would basically be the same. For Fuji an interchangeable mount means at least the chance of selling more than one lens. So maybe fixed isn´t that attractive for them anymore. At least at sub Sony RX1 pricetags

Perhaps the X-E1 with the yet to be announced 27mm pancake lens will come close?

Still, is there any news on the x100´s future? Do newer builds still have that sticky blades problem?
I really like the idea of a fixed 35mm (equivalent) lens, carry-all-day camera and the X100 almost had me sold – because I was hoping for a X200 at Photokina.
The X100 won´t suddenly make worse images as before “the new guns” had arrived, but in digital days, who want´s to buy “old” hardware…;)
So, any news?

Right, Lucas. And it shoots like an X-Pro1. Pale? No, not really. I am interested in this little camera as a backup to my X-Pro1.

X-E1 is half the price and half the weight of the D600. And with a comparable lens it’s still half the price of the RX1. Not that pale I would say

If Fuji could at least allow Manual controls in Video mode.

In body Image Stabilization would also be nice.

Come on Fuji, it is time for a full frame sensor now.

Sony RX-1 showed us what we need already. I have put my pre-order in already, and my X100 is on ebay now.

Good on Fuji and good on the spokesperson.

But in the future Fuji must get things right out the box. Updates are good but the word on the X-pro1 spread like wild fire and to me if they released the X pro1 now including its goodness then they wouldn’t have to work on the imminent X-pro2 which will be arriving soon. So they are paying for that.

I have to say I am looking forward to the X-pro2 but stress it must include the 6 axis gyroscopic image stabilisation that the OMD has. If it doesn’t im buying the X-E1 as a cheap and powerful camera rather then an expensive camera body lacking quality features.

I would like wi-fi on the camera too. eye-fi is all well and good but if the Sony NEX6 can do it then so should the X-pro2.

but im seriously tempted but the X-E1. hope its £800 max body only.
