Fuji X-T1 Field Test with Nick Devlin
Great video to watch!!!
Fuji manager Toshihisa Iida has been interviewed by the Dpreview team. And these are the interesting things he mentioned:
– X-T1 preorders are twice as high as expected
– Focus is on high end market. Low end market is only important in Asia.
– Mirrorless camera share (all manufacturers) is 40% in Japan, 25% in Asia and 10% in US and Europe
– X-E2 firmware upgrade will improve the refresh rate of the EVF
– At the moment we focus on APS-C but we don’t rule out the possibility to use larger sensor in future.
I don’t recall a NEX camera to be as cheap as this one: NEX-3n with kit lens for $298 at Amazon (here). Really the best deal you can grab if you want a very good mirrorless camera for little money!
Until now we saw product pictures only but today Sigma displayed some real Quattro DP cameras at the CP+ show in Yokohama. And from the pictures you see how it will look once you hold it in your hands.
Huge but comfortable :)
