“A Conversation with the Fujifilm X-Pro2” (olafphotoblog) :: Fujifilm X-Pro2 MANUAL Delayed to “Early March”!

Fujifilm X-Pro2
USA: BHphoto / AmazonUS / Adorama / CANADA: AmazonCA / EUROPE: AmazonDE / AmazonUK / WexUK / PCHstore / AmazonITA / AmazonFR / AmazonESP /   AUSTRALIA: CameraPro

Some readers made me notice, that AmazonUS still marks February 25 as the X-Pro2 shipping date. But this will not happen because:

1) FR Sources told us about the X-Pro2 delay here. Fuji needs more time to optimize the final Firmware .
2) After the rumor Fujifilm officially confirmed the delay due to “high demand“. The new release date is set to “early March”
3) BHphoto changed the expected release date to March 25.
4) NEW ENTRY: Now also the Fujifilm X-Pro2 Manual release has been changed to “beginning of March 2016“

Good Read: A conversation with the Fujifilm X-Pro2 at olafphotoblog:

Olafphoto (O): It’s good to have you here! It’s been a very long wait!

X-Pro2 (X): It took me a while but hey, don’t you think I was worth waiting for?!

O: OK, you got me there but please make sure your next incarnation won’t take that long. Some of us got really impatient.

X: Let me explain. My creators approached the process of designing me a little bit differently from the others. The intention was to create a camera as a photographic tool that is an extension of the photographer: something that doesn’t get in the way of seeing, but complements it. That kind of camera would amplify the soul and spirit of the image. This objective is very difficult to achieve and requires years of planning, collaboration and consultation.
