Super deals!!! Wondering if there is any room left for a cheaper X model :)

 

X PRO 1 for $1,119! X PRO 2 only due for 2014.

There are some nice price drop on the X-PRo 1:

You can grab it for $1,119 with free shipping via top rated seller . And European can get it for 1.000 Euro only at Digitalrev (import tax and shipping costs included!). Does it mean the X PRO 2 launch is on the horizon? Nope, two trusted sources told us that the X PRO 2 is coming in early 2014 only. Too bad they didn’t unveil the specs yet. But I hope they will come back to me soon with some good news :)

Canon EOS-M with 22mm lens for $399. And Ricoh GR specs.

. That’s almost a $200 discount over the regular price at Amazon!

And now back to rumors: Those are the specs of the new Ricoh GR model:

  • The name of the new camera is GR and not GRV.

  • 16 MP sensor APS-C size. The same sensor is used in the K-5II DSLR camera.

  • New 28mm f/2.8 GR lens without any type of image stabilization.

  • AF speed is much faster than the Nikon Coolpix A, slightly inferior to the X100S.

  • The new GR will have almost the same size as Ricoh GR1, body size has been scaled up slightly from the GR Digital IV, it is lighter than Coolpix A.

  • New Fn button has been added.

  • Announcement in late April, release in mid-May.

  • Price around $1000.

Fuji X100s shipping at Amazon US.

X100s vs RX1 size compairson by Mike Kobal

After more than two months of waiting the first X100s US preorders are shipping at Amazon US (Click here). A few hours ago it was even amrked as “in Stock” for a short time.There are already first User Reviews (Click here to read them).

But how good is the new X100s? If you have a lot of time to spend on Internet than check out that list of tests: Zackarias, Dpreview Studio comparison, ePhotozine review, Mike Kobal, Rico Pfirstinger.

The X100s has a faster AF, better EVF, and plenty of new features. It’s really time for Fuji to make a new X PRO 2 too!

Nikon Coolpix A review (and in Stock in US).

After Canon, Fuj and Pentax also Nikon has a high end APS-C fixed lens compact camera. And it’s finally in Stock at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here). But how does it compare with its rivals? Photographyblog posted the full Coolpix A review and writes: “smaller and more pocketable than its rivals, but with slower auto-focusing and no built-in viewfinder. It’s definitely an interesting camera in its own right that would make a great second camera for Nikon DSLR owners, but ultimately a few crucial shortcomings and some fierce competition limit its appeal to a wider audience.“

Pb isn’t really enthusiastic about the camera but everything is relative. The Nikon is really a pocketable camera while the Fuji X100s is not. You have the choice :)
