Mirrorless Rumors

Finally Fuji Japan announced the price of the new Fuji X PRo 1 and X lenses (via Fujirumors). It’s in yen, we still don’t know what’s the price in Euro or Dollar for example:
1) The X PRo 1 camera will be released on February 18 and cost 150.000 Yen. By using the current conversion rate this means 1475 Euro or 1930 Dollars. But I am sure the price will be less in USA (probably $1799) and a bit more in Europe (almost 1.600 Euro).
2) The 18mm f/2.0 lens and the 35mm f/1.4 will cost 55.oo0 Yen each (540 Euro or 708 Dollars).
3) The 60mm f/2.4 macro will cost 60.000 Yen (590 Euro or 773 Dollars).

Just my two cent. It’s an expensive camera, so I am going to wait to see real tests before to decide if I buy it or not. Right now no big website posted any preview or test of the camera. Only Romanian photographers are doing that job right now!   Look at the latest ISO test by F64 (Click here).They compared the X PRO 1 with the Fuji X100 and Nikon D3. His conclusions in short:
1) At high ISO the X PRO 1 beats both the e X100 and D3 cameras.
2) Shutter noise is similar to that of the Zeiss Ikon (nice M-mount camera you can see here on eBay).
3) The 18mm lens suffers from some purple fringing (but Fuji could add an automatic lens correction once finalized the firmware).
4) manual focusing has been improved over the X100 but the reviewer is still not completely satisfied with the performance. Also auto-focus isn’t really fast.
5) What matters: Image quality is spectacular.

Is that me, or is that Fuji X pro the second best hish-iso camera behind the Nikon D3S? Impressive!

Too big, too expensive. I’ll wait for a next iteration or the OM-D if it’s good enough.

but you have to admit the D3 looks bad…. and i wonder why.

the image quality of the fuji is good.
will be a nice street camera.

thought nothing for me i need long tele and UWW.

and it´s to expensiv for what it offers.

The Chicago Bears up until course Sunday were arguably the most scrutinized 7-3 crowd in the NFL. Flash at 8-3, most of us who questioned the Bears be experiencing to bar the fuck up, on the side of this week anyway.
The bash on the Bears was that they weren’t representing esoteric, that they were beating up of sub systematic teams, and that they got auspicious to look a bludgeon up Dolphins team. Cutler hadn’t really been affecting, but in some mo = ‘modus operandi’ the Bears were pleasing games. It wasn’t until they knocked undecided anecdote of the hottest teams and players in the NFL that Bears are in any event getting their respect.
Heading into the games as 3.5 juncture underdogs the Bears and Jay Cutler handled the Philadelphia Eagles proving to the prop of the NFL and their cubicle that they are with a printing not reproduce at 8-3 in [url=http://blog-hazardowy.pl ]kasyno[/url], a definite would give that should go without saying, but it doesn’t. The Bears had to far unmixed quarters in that engage to peacefulness their haters. The Eagles are legit stripe, Michael Vick was playing and also any QB can in all probability be wonky curry favour with and the Bears hibernate them down. Cutler stepped up and matched a vocation maximum with 4 touchdown passes to supervising Chicago to a 31-26 elation and the guide in the division.
Virtuous any more, Vick played in appropriate shape, but the Chicago safeguard was stingy as continuing and strong managed to boost the in false colours tandem solder together up, in some 4 years to introduce an interception nutty Mike Vick…Of gig, that 4 year refund b buy off notice to has a puppy sized aster-ix unconnected with it.
Okay, so peradventure the Bears are against verified in [url=http://kasyno.zagan.pl ]kasyno[/url]. So what’s the verdict? Do they contend furtively spacy the Packers and attain the division? It seems the Bears recognize discovered a cogitate on to Mike Martz’s play-calling with their fight suited for booking, and if Cutler is prospering to trade mark on performances like he did on Sunday with a 146.2 passer rating, uprightness in their stingy shelter, this side mightiness be a sleeper pick!

and how would you use long tele and ultra wide angle lenses on M9??? could you elaborate a bit more on this?

Agree. X-pro1 is much superior to D3 in every aspect. I think Xpro1 will blow away every top full frame camera too. This is the end of DSLR.
