These are my top ten photos from a 2 week road trip through Utah and Arizona over Xmas and New Year. All shots with the Fuji X-E2, which as I’ve now come to expect, performed flawlessly.

I sent an email off to Fuji HQ and they got back to me instantly, sending emails to both Fuji Aus and Fuji Sth America asking to help me out. Fuji Aus got onto me and helped me out big time! Seriously their customer support is amazing, they had a trouble shoot for me and it appears to have worked. I was even having troubles with my 55-200 and they offered to send me a loan lens from Aus to help me out.. I was blown away with how awesome they are.

Any way I just did another update on my site about my trip.. check it out, share it if you like!

Hi Patrick

Would like to start thanking you for all the amazing work you put into the Fujirumors site! Well done!

Just wanted to share my Fuji story with you.

This summer i took a big decision. I had started to notice that more often i left my D800 at home and just took some pictures with the iPhone. This clearly was not the way i should be.

So a month before i was heading for Iceland for a 8 day long road trip i sold all my Nikon D800 gear and went all in Fuji. I bought the X-Pro1 and 14mm, 18mm, 35mm and the 50-200mm

So did the Fuji deliver on the Icelandic Road Trip? Yes totally! You can check out the pictures on my site.

I also went to Norway for an another Road Trip. This time we were extremely lucky we definitely  managed to be at the right place at the right time. The weather was amazing, the fall colors just had exploded and to top this there was a European Triumph TR meeting going on! Spectacular landscapes and amazingly beautiful classic cars at the same spot. Jackpot!

Pictures from this trip can be seen here:

Since that day in May this year i haven’t looked back at all. My X-Pro1 is with me almost every day and i love it!

Now the time has come to pay a visit to the homeland of the Fuji. Im leaving for Tokyo next sunday and the X-Pro1 comes with me. Just a small change to the lens setup. The 18mm is sold and the 23mm is now glued to the X-Pro1 :-)

Keep up the good work!

Hello, I am Geologist and Photographer from Brazil. I’m using a Fuji X-Pro1 to a year and love it. With presets created reach the expected result without any further editing, so I photograph in JPG directly.

I want to share a travel self portrait session I just shot while traveling in Arizona and Nevada. I put my X100S to stress but it gave me amazing results.

Still leading the CSC-ranking here.

The body only version is selling better… seems that many are right now upgrading from “older” X-cameras to the X-T1.

if you purchase the X-T1 using one of the shoplinks on FR, you’ll support my rumor-work over the last months (and the upcoming one) with no extra costs for you.

Hi all

I’m just sitting in a bar waiting for the meeting at my day job to begin, and thought to make a good use of my spare time ;-).

So here is a collection of a few more first looks and thoughts about the X-T1 and 56mm and a size comparison between the three weather sealed lenses in the roadmap (18-135, 16-55, 50-140) and the two lenses that will be next one available on the market (56 and 10-24).

Fuji X-T1

(if there is someone out there who incredibly missed to read Rico’s X-T1 first look, click here and enjoy)

– Polish first impressions at optyczne here (translation). The size comparison of the lenses can be found on their website.

– Fuji X-T1 – Seeing – Improved at olafphotoblog here: “In sum, a camera doesn’t have to have every possible feature — quite the opposite. Give me the best viewfinder on the market and the manual controls at my fingertips and let me do what I love to do – see and paint with light. All the rest is just distraction.”

– Karol: “Hi, Fujirumors Live photography from Fujifilm event in Poland in gallery. JPG, fine, profile Vivid and Monochrome. Fujifilm X-T1. Fujinon XF 18-55, Fujinon XC 50-230.” See here (translation).

XF 56mmm

– XF56mm hands on review at fujivsfuji here: “Once last time, given this lens is a preproduction unit, I think it’s more than safe to say we’ll have a superbly sharp portrait lens that delivers exceptional bokeh. I’m looking forward to getting my hands on a finalized copy  of it.”

–  kammah is in love with the XF56mm here: “I will keep this article short and sweet. For one simple reason, to me, this lens is perfect.
I’ve only had it for a few hours and already, I have fallen in love.”

– Some more photos taken with the XF56mm at neillsoden here.

P.S.: black X100S available at top rated ebay reseller [shoplink 21385 ebay]samyscamerainc here[/shoplink]

These are the first two all black X100S available in the USA. They are sold by [shoplink 21342 ebay]top rated eBay reseller kenmorecamera[/shoplink].

There was some buzz in the last days because in Japan you can find the black X100S marked as “limited edition”. But I think it referred to a special box with some extra “original accessory” (black [shoplink 12893]WCL-X100[/shoplink] and more…).

The black X100S sold by kenmorecamera is not marked as “limited edition”, has the same price of the silver one… and is beautiful :-)! So don’t worry, there will be enough for all.
