looking forward to the 27!!!

Nice BA. Have fun with it! I wonder what that says about buyers in the US. I guess it would either be that we've slowed down in our buying or that we buy so much it takes companies a long time to fill all of our orders.

True! we, in Italy, have a load of 27 pancake and X100s in stock and not enough money to buy everything....:D
 
I recently saw a xm1 w/ an 27 on it next to a x20. It was smaller than the x20. In terms of lens depth about the same ad the zoom when retracted.

It is a shame fuji does not offer a xm1 w/ a 27 as a kit. Put a 40 ovf on it and u are good to go even in bright sun light.

speed seems ok, really about the same as the 35...image quality is very good...i'm trying not to compare with the 35...
the only thing that i don't like is that it does not focus as close as the 35 or the 18...only by a bit but noticable when i want it.
bonus points...the xe1/27 fits into my tiny terraclime 50 bag...same as my former rx100!
and at the end of my 66 inch lance strap it fits nicely low and against my hip carried across my shoulder.
it's a winner for me...the biggest surprise/'issue' is getting used to the 40mm fov as i got very used to the 35's 50mm fov...i know, small difference but noticeable for me...i like it better for working in a crowd than using the 35!
 
i like that it's so small but...i do wish it had a hood....my finger kept smudging the cheap 39mm uv filter i put on it.
i only had a no name filter with a black rim or a nice b+w uv/ir with a silver rim...
 
I can only say that I took the "Protector"Fuji filter for 59 Euros (!) and I discover only now that I can use the filters for my Summicron E39......I suppose they were different, I'm an idiot..:bang:
