XQ1

AmazonUS has the silver and black XQ1 in stock for $449 (limited number available). Also BHphoto and Adorama have it available for the same price (while the black version costs $499 at BHphoto).

Top rated ebayUS reseller kenmorecamera has both, the [shoplink 19110 ebay]silver[/shoplink] and [shoplink 19111 ebay]black[/shoplink] XQ1 ready to be shipped… also with $50 instant savings (black version too).

X-S1

And did you miss the AmazonUS gold box deal last week? Don’t worry, the X-S1 is still to have for just $399 (it was $379 last week). Still an awesome deal that you can grab here at AmazonUS.

And what about the XF 10-24 lens? You may have noticed that I never was able to give confirmation from trusted sources about the release date. Let’s hope the new source was right. I’ll keep you posted. In the meantime, check out this video, where Kayce Baker from Fujifilm said 3 weeks ago that the 10-24 would come “very very soon“, and the 56mm in the new year (at 0:51).

The New York Times says: “700,000 X-series cameras sold”

Now we have a first real number about the X-series sales. The New York Times says in an article here (Fujifilm Finds Niche With Old-Style Cameras That Mask a High-Tech Core) that Fujifilm “has sold more than 700,000 X-series cameras since the first model, the X100, was introduced in 2011“. We also know from Fujifilm itself that the X100 has been sold 130,000 times.

Thom Hogan commented these numbers and said here “It’s a low number, lower than I expected (I recently wrote that I thought they had hit at least 1m units). It shows just how tough the camera market really is.”

Did you expect stronger sales? Feel free to drop a comment.

atmtx just wrote me saying: “Dear Fuji Rumors, I took my 1st step into the Fuji X system by getting the XF1.  I recently shot the F1 weekend in Austin with the XF1 which your readers might be interested to see. Very impressive for a point and shoot.” See his shots here.
