Popco posted a set of X-E1 images. Some of them are so well made that it really makes you want to get the camera today :)
Quick fujifilm XF18-55mm F2.8-4.0 R LM OIS lens hands-on at Cnet Asia: “we found it comparable with most 18-55mm kits lenses in terms of speed. However, images were very sharp, and the F4 aperture at the long end does give a more pleasing background blur than most kit lenses.”
Fujifilm Fujinon XF 18 mm f/2 R test at Lenstip: “You can honestly say the Fujinon XF 18 mm f/2R is a well done lens, fully recommendable to those users who understand what they are buying and what the limits of such a purchase are.”

Our lucky Asian friends can now get their hands on the new Fuji X-E1. You can now find plenty of cameras on eBay Asia (Click here) and Digitalrev (Click here). EU and US readers will have to wait til late October or early November (See shipping date at BHphoto). If for some reason you can’t afford to wait you can buy the camera at Digitalrev (Click here) which ships worldwide and is a highly recommended and reliable store. Of course you have to know that import taxes can be very high depending from the country where you live.
The recently released Fuji X PRO 1 firmware update increased the autofocus performance. ThePhoBlographer compared it with the superfast AF from the Olympus E-M5. Keep in mind that the E-M5 uses a smaller Four Thirds sensor which also increases the DOF and consequently makes it a bit easier to get things in focus.
On October 5th Fuji will release a new firmware update for the X10 which will add six new filters “pop color”, “high key”, “Toy Camera”, “miniature”, “dynamic tone”, “partial color”. And the X10 will now also get the “Q Menu” function.
