Fujifilm X-E1 coverage: previews and sample images (video)

Fujifilm X-E1 black and silver

As expected, the Fujifilm X-E1 mirrorless interchangeable lens camera (MILC) was announced last week. It is a cheaper and more compact version of the X-Pro1, with the same excellent APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor, sans any anti-aliasing filter, but missing the innovative hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder.

Instead, the X-E1 features a 2.36-million dot OLED electronic viewfinder, and you really can’t get much better than that. It is the same resolution as the Sony OLED EVF we were so excited about in the Sony NEX-7, A65 and A77, and we bet this is Sony-made too, though it’s rumored to be an updated version with better contrast. The X-E1 also gets a slightly smaller, 2.8-inch, and lower resolution, 460k dots, screen than the X-Pro1, to keep costs under control.

One of the main criticisms against the X-Pro1 and X100 (which we thoroughly reviewed here) was the slow autofocus and operating speed. Fujifilm is a company that listens, and claims the X-E1 can now focus in 0.1 seconds with the new Fujinon XF 18-55 F2.8-4 R LM OIS zoom lens which we was part of Fuji’s 2012-13 lens roadmap for the system. The camera also features a 0.05 second shutter lag, 0.5 second quick start (you can see our startup test of the X100 here) and 6 frames per second burst shooting.

Fujifilm X-S1 26x superzoom bridge camera takes on a Canon DSLR (video)

Fujifilm X-S1 vs. Canon T3 (1100D) shootout

We’ll admit that we are generally pretty harsh when it comes to superzoom bridge cameras. These are cameras that look like DSLRs but have fixed zoom lenses and sensors much smaller than APS-C. This means that you can’t change lenses, e.g. use any fast and sharp prime lenses, and bridge camera have worse low-light performance than DSLRs.

When we first had a look at Fujifilm’s latest 12-megapixel 26x superzoom X-S1 bridge camera we weren’t too intrigued, especially because of the hefty $800 price point. For the price of the Fujifilm X-S1 you can get an entry DSLR, which has some undisputed benefits, like the bigger sensor and optical viewfinder.

Fujifilm X-Pro1 hands-on videos preview

Sure specs, pictures and comparisons are great, but we are sure you want to see Fujifilm’s latest marvel in action. We are not sure how else to foreword this, other than grab your pop-corn, sit comfortably and prepare for a total of 40 minutes of manual knob turning, metal body handling, hybrid viewfinder switching, retro camera lust.

The Fuji Guys, Fujifilm’s Canadian duo, take you on a video tour of every minute detail around the new X-Pro1 interchangeable lens camera. Head over after the break for the three hands-on videos and be sure to check out the rest of our coverage as well.

Fujifilm X10 unboxing video, not for the faint-hearted

Fujifilm X10

We won’t hide the fact that the “Fuji Guys” are our favorite internet duo. Billy and Greg are two people who obviously love their job, and who wouldn’t when that would entail getting your hands on the latest Fujifilm shooters and demonstrating them for the world to see. After their last 16 minute video demonstration of the new Fujifilm X10 high-end point-and-shoot camera, the Canadian pair returns with a painstakingly detailed unboxing video of the X10.

If you enjoy lusting over every piece of kit that comes with the X10 and of course the camera itself, you’ll find the video right after the break. As a reminder, the X10 is not a simple run-of-the-mill compact camera. It offers tons of controls, a manual 4x optical zoom f2.0-2.8 Fujinon lens, optical viewfinder, image stabilization, built-in ND filter, magnesium alloy body and a sexy retro design. The X10 is already up for sale for $599.

The full 6 plus minute unboxing video is after the break.

Fujifilm prepping new ‘premium’ X-series interchangeable lens mirrorless camera system

The Fuji Guys

The Fuji Guys might be our favorite tech spokespersons pair; you might remember them from their video of the new X10, going over every detail. The official voice of Fujifilm Canada, has ousted, over a couple of tweets, the company’s intention to release a new mirrorless interchangeable lens camera (MILC) system under their popular X-series.

The Fujifilm X100 showed to the world that compact low-light performance is achievable, however you are stuck with just one focal length, for better or worse. It seems that Fujifilm will try to maintain the same premium design and performance but give you the option of switching between zoom and prime lenses.

Information is very scarce at the moment; the Fuji Guys’ tweets (which you can find after the break) mention that, it will be a premium system, and not Micro Four Thirds — we would guess bigger sensor, perhaps the same APS-C sensor as the X100 — and that the system will be unveiled at CES 2012 in January.

We will definitely keep you posted in the meantime, as these things do tend to leak out.

Fuji Guys showing off the Fujifilm FinePix X10

The “Fuji Guys”, a.k.a. Billy and Greg from Fujifilm Canada, have posted a video demonstrating the new FinePix X10. There is a lot of marketing hype in the video, but you get to spend 16 minutes learning about every aspect of the new high-end point-and-shoot camera.

We’ve made particular note of:

  • Standard optical viewfinder, no information overlay.
  • High precision 4x manual zoom using a metal cam-driven mechanism. Twist lens zoom ring to turn the camera on. Optical image stabilisation.
  • 7 blade aperture system but no built-in ND filter.
  • 1cm macro.
  • Magnesium alloy construction and metal lens cap like the X100.
  • Software and buttons similar to the X100 with some improvements, mode dial instead of shutter speed dial. Fuji has kept the dedicated ‘Raw’ button… why?
  • 1080p video 30fps.

Video is after the break for your enjoyment.
