I hope they'll have a ver 2.0 for the x100 soon

Great news indeed!

I just hope it is a "magical" release.

Thanks for the link, Gary. It's great to see Fuji is continuing to upgrade and support even their existing products.

better autofocus makes XPro even more appealing.

AF seems very improved... and this may be the 60mm! (f/2.4 and 1/90 - which is the default minimum shutter speed used by the 60mm):

^A very high contrast brightly lit place and the focus is on the same distance! And still its not fast.


This is just pure charlatanism by Fuji marketing.

Looks fast to me... and is certainly faster than it is now. Same distance is noted, but still... If you use this camera, you know this is an improvement. The 35mm 1.4 is slow even in bright light. If you don't use the camera, then I guess there is no reason for you to be anything but cynical.
