Fujifilm X-E3 Poll

Fuji X Forum member Jano just invited us to vote on his X-E3 poll at the forum.

With our hopes high that Fuji is actually working on an X-E3 now, I’ve been thinking a lot about what I would want the X-E3 to be like and for which features I am actually willing (and able) to pay.

Since I’ve read all sorts of things about what people want ranging from “as cheap as possible” to “make it an X-T2 in rangefinder format” I decided to make a poll to collect all those opinions in a meaningful way.

I am hoping that many people here (and from FR) participate so that I can generate some interesting statistics from the data. Patrick has done some polls but without a bit of background information I believe the value of those polls is quite low (sorry, Patrick ;-)

I am planning to leave it open for about a week and then do an analysis which I will of course publish here in the forum or maybe as a guest post on FR.”

I liked the poll and I already did my homework (it took me not longer than 2 minutes). Can’t wait for the results next week :)

You can go to the forum to get the link and discuss the poll with Jano, or here is the direct google docs link.

The Fujifilm X-E3 will come this year, maybe this fall.

enjoy your Sunday…

Fujifilm GFX Technologies #7 (Viewfinder) :: Fujifilm’s MF Cameras GFX50s, GX617, TX-2 and GFX Vs. H5X

Fujifilm’s Medium Format Cameras: GFX50s, GX617, TX-2 at Annie Barton youtube

Fuji GFX-50S vs. $25K Medium Format H5X Camera at lensprotogo:

In conclusion, this new Fuji will certainly open the medium format door for some photographers who couldn’t quite stomach the typical price range of medium format digital backs–and in addition there are some really fun aspects that the Fuji brings to the table. The low light functionality, it’s smaller and lighter form factor, and the ability to share images socially while on the job are some of my favorite perks. If this came at a huge deficit image wise I might look past it, but it was able to stand up for itself in detail/color/quality.”

Fujifilm just published the 7th episode of their GFX technologies series, called “The Development of the Ultimate Finder”:

The finder’s view is very pleasing to the photographer’s eye. Generally speaking, if you go as high as 0.85x magnification ratio, aberrations will be very noticeable. Thanks to the luxurious lens construction, the EVF achieves minimal distortion and color aberration to deliver clear and sharp images.”
