Here are three new pictures of the Fuji X-T1 leaked by our friend from Digicameinfo. Only six days to go until the camera gets announced (at around 5-6am London time on January 28^th). Feel free to follow the event live here on Fujirumors with a couple of hot coffees to keep you awake :-) and to support Fujirumors by pre-ordering it using one of the shoplinks on this blog.

At the bottom a silver mock-up by FR-reader Michel Van Weyenbergh, and some size comparisons by FR-reader Manne Sjögren who said: “I heard rumors, and also saw that people are writing it on some other sites as well, that the X-T1 will be smaller than the X-E1 and X-E2 bodies. I had to compare. Here’s a quick comparison from above of them both. Not really smaller but good looking none the less. Feel free to use it if you want!”

FR-reader James shared via email at fujirumor@gmail.com: “I composed some comparison photos of the X-Pro1 and X-T1 with the same 35mm F1.4. They can be found here.”

– Leigh Diprose wrote me on facebook: “I recorded an Google+ Hangout discussing the camera. Some of your readers might find this interesting.” See it here. (recorded after the first leaked image).

– Shared via twitter: “Here’s a quick rundown of what we know of the X-T1, and how it compares with Fuji’s current top-end cameras, the X-E2 and X-Pro1. Keep in mind, much of the info about the X-T1 is still rumour.” Check it out af fujivsfuji here.

and also from MJr :-)

According to a new source, these are the prices in Euro for the X-T1 and the various kits. Considering that the Euro/Dollar conversion for cameras is almost 1:1 (the X-E2 costs €900 in Germany and $1000 in USA), this means that the X-T1 could actually cost around $1,300 in USA!

The source also said that the price is still unofficial.

– X-T1: around €1,200

– X-T1 + 18-55mm: around €1,600 [UPDATE: FR-source drphotorumor said “Fuji will sell the kit for £1600 in UK”]

– X-T1 + XF18-135mm (weather sealed): around €1,800

The Japanese source told me that the EVF magnification is bigger than the one of the E-M1: x0,77 compared to the [shoplink 17516]Olympus OM-D E-M1[/shoplink] which is x0,74!

Another source (thanks a lot) shared more details:

Here is the updated specs list

The first information about the price comes from Japan: 180,000 Yen (body only), says digicame-info (tranlsation). The release is scheduled for mid-February. The kit lens will be the 18-55. The zoom lens XF 18-135 will be weather sealed.

I also got an email with the following information:

“X-T1 in store is on Feb 10~15th. The price of X-T1 is about $1,800 only body. EVF is not Organic EL but so incredible. Kit-lens is XF18-55mm F2.8-4. Body size is smaller than X-E2. X-Trans CMOS2 & EXR Procceser existant. I think too expensive it’s price.”

I think the source converted the price from Yen in Dollars. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a lower price tag on the X-T1. Converted in Euro it would be €1,276. Anyway, take all this with a grain of salt.

Here is the updated specs list. I’ve put everything in there:

• announcement January 28th (trusted source)
• bigger (extra-large) and better (high performance) EVF / (trusted +  anonymous sources)
• APS-C X-Trans sensor II (16MP) / (trusted +  anonymous sources)
• support for the UHS-II SD-card for super-fast writing speed / (trusted sources)
• 8fps with AF tracking / (trusted source)
• weather sealed body / (trusted sources)
• tilt screen (source who was right in the past, but not yet upgraded to trusted source)
• SLR-type (Fujica) design / (source who was right in the past, but not yet upgraded to trusted source)
• name: X-T1 / (anonymous source + Fujifilm)
• smaller than the X-E2 (anonymous source)
• 18-55 kit lens (anonymous source + other rumor sites)
• 18-135 will be weather sealed (other rumor sites)

• price range between X-E and X-PRO line / (new and anonymous sources)

FR-reader Andrej compared X-E2 with X-T1:

It’s Fuji’s birthday, and Japanese readers woke up with a big surprise. This morning they opened the newspapers and saw an image of a new Fuji camera. You can’t read the name, but it must be the X-T1! Fujfilm confirms also the rumored announcement day: the 28th of January.

You can see this image also at Fuji’s website here.

thanks to the Japanese FR-readers who send me the images.

stay tuned, the X-T1 is coming January 28th. I’ll do a live blogging sessions for you!
