X-E1 + 35mm bundle deal

I got one of these, because I too wanted a 35 1.4 as my kit lens. Not from this seller, I think. Everything is properly boxed/included, though I can't say whether you (or I) would have to run any warranty issues through Hong Kong or could use US.

Mine featured a branding phrase on the shelf box (not the inner charcoal boxing) that this was a special Hong Kong kit. And the charger uses HK plug, but my seller included (attached!) a US converter. You might ask about this, as well as the warranty, if you wish to be prudent as possible.

I found mine to be a sensible and quite competitive deal, given that I wanted to stick to primes. And the camera/kit is perfect. Hope this helps.
 
the seller informed me that any warranty request will be sent to HK at their expense. So it seems that it is not a bad deal. Still on the fence though.
 
Is the X-E1 always bundled with the 18-55 there in the US? Over here (somewhere in Asia), the EX-1's are bundled with the 35mm as the standard offer, and sometimes merchants would offer a choice, instead of this 35mm, an 18mm could be put in its place.
 
As far as I know, in the US, X-E1 is only offered as a bundle with the 18-55 zoom lens. X-Pro-1 is offered as a bundle with either 18mm or 35mm prime.
 
I bought a similar kit, black, and have had it over a month. No problems. The seller threw in the appropriate AC converter, and I couldn't be happier. I also picked up a used 18mm. Waiting on the 14 and the 55-200 zoom. To me, the XE-1 is extremely Leica-like in handling. I only wish the AF was as fast as my Olympus OMD.
 
Finally got my X-E1+35mm from the ebay seller. It arrived 2 days from Hong Kong!

First, what's a good basic setup? Can't wait to play with the new toy... although it feels a lot less of a toy compared to m4/3 cameras.
 
Bought mine from B and H black with the 35 with the fuji special was around same price. My only complaint was you had to put them in cart together to show discount It wasnt advertised.

Update: just check and its for 1298us with them now plus other lens kit specials for anyone interested.
