Fuji X100 Digital SOMETHING from Fujifilm

I watched the video

1. the self-timer is actually the switch between optical & digital viewfinder

2. the ending is quite telling "...reignite your love for photography."

I think the camera is quite quite affordable, the 800-1600 range that that has been mentioned is what we are willing to pay, not necessary what the price of the camera will be.

Alright! Fuji is on fire now.

I'll just say it. This is what the X1 should have been.

And Fuji knows how to build excellent lenses.

Let's see it in black 😉
 
looks like a halo product for Fujifilm and one that could be priced as such... looks like the hybrid vf may be a game changer if it's any good (optically)... this is the first digital camera that I'm actually looking forward to getting my hands on in a very long time... (this is assuming it comes in at or near the $1500 mark)...
 
I love the shutter speed dial, aperture setting on the lens, dial for +/- EV. I've got my most-used controls readily available without punching thru a menu. My Fuji MF rangefinders have outstanding lenses, and I've always liked the Fuji LF lenses as well. This looks like a game-changer. I'm thinking that $1699 that Ken suggests is probably where it comes in (not that i wouldn't love it lower). Way to go, Fuji!
 
OK, can I reveal that I am, in fact, a "Luxury Compact Oracle" 🙂

From February of this year...

On the RF front I'd love to see a hybrid system one day, allowing for a super bright traditional viewfinder with projected framelines and hologram overlay of things like histograms and data (only as desired). Have the technology enhance the traditional experience, leveraging technology to aid the photographer in making his/her digital image.

This is an X1 killer without a doubt.

Makes me wish I hadn't gotten a Luigi case for my X1. If this has no shutter lag (the worst feature of the X1), and faster autofocus, I fail to see how it can't beat the X1 like a red-headed stepchild.

Worst case of GAS yet.... I shouldn't be this way, a buddy just emailed me, saying, "I have this Pentax 645N I've never used, I'm sending it to you...." so I shouldn't be jonesing after more gear.
 
It's not too surprising that this is a fixed-lens camera. It's a prestige piece like the Fuji Klasse series, and it bears some resemblance to those cameras.

I read the DPReview story with my jaw hanging open. This will probably be my next camera, if Fuji can get it released before my m4/3 lust takes over.
 
For years I've been begging for a digital hexar AF.
sure as heck looks like this is it.
90% of everything I shoot is 35 or 40mm equivalent. Fixed lens would be no real issue for me.
I bet if this goes well, they'll do an interchangeable lens version next.
