Looks like next announcement for Fuji maybe at CES if this rumored is to believed.

A weather sealed camera, apsc, xtran II, and is suppose to be situated between xe and xp line.

In the past, it always seemed to me that Fuji used their lower end cameras as a proving ground for what they did on their other cameras. What was in the original x100 we saw a lot of re-use in the xp1. The new x100s components saw a lot of use in the xe2.

So I am hoping that weatherproofing and other features this camera brings will show up in the new xp2 whether it is apsc or ff.

Weather sealed lenses perhaps?
If Fuji would release a nice 24-105ish constant aperture, say F4 walk around lens, they would create a very tempting offering for me.
What do you think?
 
as a former pentax user i'm pretty spoilt when it comes to weathersealing. So i was always quite envious of the EM5's weathersealing.
Though i have shot quite a few numbers in some hard enviromental conditions while not having the XP1 failing me even once, i was always worried about the possible consequences afterwards. So i truely welcome any kind of weathersealing on the body or lenses!
 
They keep muddying up this line up. I guess they want a model for every hundred dollar increment?
