Fuji says it’s too early for the use of organic sensors (and they sold more X10 and X100 than they expected).

In an Interview with Lenstip (Click here) Fuji didn’t unveil any secret news about the future strategy. There were a lot of “We will consider it” answers :(

Anyway, they said that the super high quality organic sensor (that we hoped to be inside the X PRO 1) will not be find any use in the short term. It’s still too early for a real use on cameras.

Lenstip (Click here) posted a set of Jpeg image samples taken with the X PRO 1 including a crazy comparison with a Mamiya 645 medium format camera using Velvia film.

New Fuji X PRO 1 full size image samples

Share

Fuji posted a set of new image samples on his dedicated X PRO 1 website (Click here). And also Brandon Remler (Click here) is continuing posting new images and videos (like the one on top of this post). He also made a quick comparison with the Leica M9: ” I feel the X-Pro1 is delivering a nicer color palette and I don’t want to set any precedents here – but when the tests are done I think the X-Pro1 will show a higher resolution.“
