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.

Fuji news roundup…(Double new firmware update)

Share

It’s Sunday and time to catch up with some smaller news :) Here is the list:

Fuji X10 test at Focus Numerique (Click here).
Unpacking Fuji X-S1 at YouandMe (Click here).
Fuji X-S1 review at Photographyblog (Click here): “£699 / $799 is an awful lot of money to pay for what is a fixed-lens compact camera, easily making the X-S1 the most expensive super-zoom on the market. Having said that, it’s also easily the best-in-class super-zoom, offering a compelling mix of features, performance and image quality that no other rival can match. If you want one camera that can do it all, then look no further than the Fujifilm X-S1.

Here is a short excerpt form his first impression text: “I do feel the AF speed is faster than the X100 and the file looks gorgeous. The noise levels at ISO 3200 look great to me.

New X PRO 1 image samples (3 days and 2 night with the X PRO 1)

Share

And here we have plenty of new Full Size(!) X PRo 1 image samples: http://www.pbase.com/hpicckcy/fujifilm_xpro1. They have been posted by Hugo Poon: “I’m not a reviewer and this is no review. Have to be frank, I never have the time (nor interest) to do detailed tests and comparison. My only interest in an equipment is how well it can help me capture the moment and document the familiar places that are fast changing and even disappearing… Though I had had only a couple of days to shoot with this new gear, I couldn’t be more convinced that this is Fuji’s one most powerful photo taking machine to date.
