While the Fujifilm X-Pro2 is having a well desevered great pre-order start (first in the CSC AmazonUS Camera Ranking), things does not seem to proceed that well for the little Fujifilm X70.

This might be the reason why the Fuji X70 price listed at stores changed from $799 to $699. It should be available on February 15.

Fujifilm also changed the shipping embargo on the X-Pro2. Here is the official statment that Fujfiilm send stores:

“Due to a delay in shipping from the factory, we are revising the Sales Embargo date for the X-Pro2 camera body. In an effort to have inventory available at all of our retailers at the same time for the launch, we are EXTENDING the following Sales Embargo. X-Pro2 Body – Embargo on Retail Sales – EXTENDED until a TBD Date in Late February.”

And now you see why certain rumors (like firmware updates, shipping dates and price) are very difficult for me: Fuji can change it in any moment… even shortly after its launch.

A New Hope: The retro-styled X-Pro2 kicks off Fujifilm’s next generation of enthusiast X-series cameras, based on a state-of-the-art 24.3 MP X-Trans sensor and a much more powerful processor. At first, everything seems strikingly familiar, but a closer look reveals that quite a lot has changed.

A Fujifilm X-Pro2 after a few days of light use

Four years after the introduction of the X-Pro1, Fujifilm is finally ready to open a new chapter in their book of mirrorless cameras. At first glance, the X-Pro2 looks just like its predecessor. However, it’s a different story on the inside (click here for full camera specs and here for more than 150 straight-out-of-camera and Lightroom CC RAW conversion sample images).

Resistance Is Futile :) :: Fujifilm X-Pro2 Best Seller at AmazonUS (#1 mirrorless camera)

 

 

We had to wait for the Fujifilm X-Pro2 to see a Fujfilm camera ranked first again. And according to the first reviews and samples, this is no surprise to me.

I’m getting weaker and weaker… I don’t know if I can resist to the siren songs of the X-Pro2. It’s the fist product since a long time, that was able to trigger my GAS that strong!

And the most comprehensive and amazing X-pert Corner First Look by Rico Pfirstinger of all times has yet to come… and it could possibly make any resistance futile.

P.S.: Sorry guys if my posts get a bit more personal these days, but I’m just excited about the X-Pro2… I’ll try to come down again as soon as possible ;).

P.P.S.: You can win the X-Pro2 if you pre-order it at BHphoto. You will not get any notification that you joined the contest. BHphoto will simply track the orders that came via FujiRumors and then randomly select a winner.
