Hi,
here are some better pics of the X-E2. They come from a new source! Thanks a lot for sharing. Stay tuned for more at facebook and twitter.
Notice that in the new images the AE-L button is above the AF-L button. The original X-E2 should have the AF-L button above.
Check out the LCD-comparison and the comments also in my previous post here.
cheers

And here it is: the look behind the X-E2. It seems to confirm what trusted sources told me: a new position for the Q button and a Fn2 button!
Thanks a lot to the anonymous source who shared it with Fujirumors.
A trusted source just confirmed that this image is not a fake.
And now spread the word via facebook and twitter
cheers and thanks for the pics Dr. Photo rumour and also to MJr who compared the screens of the X-E1 and X-E2. “Turns out the screen is not ‘bigger’, just wider. Buttons on the left a bit smaller. I liked how the 4:3 screen left room for info under 3:2 images. This way it all has to be overlay … which doesn’t look very good imho. But oh well, the image is nice and big. At least it’s not like 16:9 like some m4/3 with black bars on the sides! and info half over the image half not, now that is horrible !”
Take it with a grain of salt, as it has been sent to me by an anonymous source:
This could be the first image of the X-E2. [UPDATE: to see the rear side of the X-E2 click here]
I’d love to see an image also of the back/top of the camera, as trusted sources told me that there will be some changes there, as the new position of the Q button.
The anonymous source also sent me some specs. Here is his list:
X-E2
16mega pix
3 inch screen
Lens modulation optimizer
0.08 sec autofocus speed
Exr II
XQ1
4 optical zoom
12 mega pix
12800 Max I so
F1.8-4.9
0.06 sec AF
I’ve already shared the image/specs with my trusted sources and if I’ll post an update if I can confirm or not this rumor.
cheers
Patrick

Version 2.3 of Iridient Developer is available now! Brian told me that the latest version of his software:
“includes support for the Fujifilm X-A1 and also adds support for automatic chromatic aberration corrections based on RAW image information for almost all recent Fujifilm cameras (all the X-Trans models plus many others like the [shoplink 12885 ebay]XF1[/shoplink], X10, F900EXR, [shoplink 14383 ebay]HS50EXR[/shoplink], HS35EXR, SL1000, etc). This release fixes a Fuji related bug with DNG image converted from some of the EXR sensor models. Most all of the recent Fujifilm models now have all RAW lens corrections (distortion, chromatic aberration and vignetting) enabled by default.”
The new version can be downloaded here.
The full release notes for this and all previous version are available here.
X-A1 vs X-M1 Shootout update
Rico didn’t lose any time and already updated his X-A1 vs X-M1 Shootout with the latest version of Iridient. Check it out on Flickr here. Feel free to leave a comment about what some call “the best X-Trans converter software” up to date.
cheers

“We can’t talk about it, but we are talking about it“! It seems that photographers Will and Louie are right now testing “a top secret Fuji camera” (X-E2?) in the streets of New Orleans… and they are impressed by it. They shared a 6 minute video about “how do you test shoot a camera BEFORE it’s released?“! Check it out here.
Thanks Raf for sharing your finding with Fujirumors… every help I get from FR-readers is very appreciated! Keep it up! You can contact me via email at fujirumor@gmail.com, facebook, twitter and also completely anonymously via rumor box.
all the best
Patrick
P.S.: Rico told me that he is preparing a first look for October 18th about “a new Fuji X-mount camera“. So stay tuned that on Fujirumors that day!
P.P.S.: pre-order the X-A1 now also at AmazonDE (via DR)
