Hi,

Fuji is coming with a new body. Style like a Nikon FM2. Looks really good. Weather sealed, Wifi, better EVF than X-E2 etc. Shall cost around 1800 USD with Kit Zoom 18-135mm.

Here is the updated specs list

  • announcement January 28th (trusted source)
  • bigger (x77 magnification) 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)
  • dual SD-Card slot (trusted source)
  • 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 + new 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)
  • WiFi
  • ISO up to 51200 (new source)
  • 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)
  • in stores mid-February (other rumor sites + anonymous source)
  • price range between X-E and X-PRO line / (new and anonymous sources)
  • priced at 180,000 yen (other rumor sites) or $1,800 (anonymous source)
  • additional battery grip / (anonymous source)
  • faster AF then X-E2 / (new source) [I think that this source confused faster writing speed with faster AF-speed]

I had an opportunity to handle the X-T1 for around 10 Minutes on a fair and I just say I am quite impressed with this camera. Reminds me of my old Contax RTS. Viewfinder is really nice for a EVF. Very big (I wear galsses).

I need to rent it for a couple of days to say more, but at the moment the X-T1 is one of the few cameras I am currently interested in, although I like the classif design of the X-Pro1 more.

Best wishes
