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.

Sony RX1 full-frame Zeiss Sonnar 35mm F2 mirrorless compact camera leaked

Sony RX1 full-frame mirrorless camera front

Well here is something we weren’t expecting. A compact Sony camera has just leaked, which is supposed to feature a full-frame sensor. Judging from the relative size of the lens to the body, this would certainly take the reins as the smallest full-frame sensor camera.

The Sony RX1 is a fixed lens camera (like the Fujifilm X100), but not just any lens, it’s sporting a Carl Zeiss Sonnar 35mm f/2.0. The lens has a manual aperture ring, a hefty zoom ring and a sweet copper-colored ring engraved with “35mm Full-Frame CMOS Image Sensor”.

Sony NEX-F3 in hand

Sony’s new entry-level Alpha SLT-A37 and NEX-F3 digital cameras were hardly a secret, we first saw pictures of the pair, followed by full specs three weeks ago, but today they’ve been made official. The two cameras are successors to the single lens translucent (SLT) A35 and the mirrorless interchangeable lens NEX-C3.

What you need to know, and what makes them appealing, is that both the A37 and NEX-F3 get a spiffy new 16.1-megapixel APS-C sized sensor, lilting LCD displays and a more ergonomic design with chunkier handgrips. They will also both retail for $599.99 together with an 18-55mm kit lens.

Olympus OM-D E-M5 digital camera right front

We finally have the Olympus OM-D E-M5 with us, and anyone not familiar with this small Micro Four Thirds wonder camera can check out our entire coverage here. Note that we’ve opted for the $1,099 kit with the 14-42mm lens and we’ll be taking the camera through its paces over the coming weeks.

As we like to spend some time with a gadget before we review it, I thought it would be wise to bring you some first impressions of this mirrorless interchangeable lens camera after a few days of use.

There’s a lot to like with this camera, Olympus has thrown everything but the kitchen sink into it, and it’s a serious contender against even much bigger DSLRs. Still there are a couple of niggles, but read on for our first impressions.

Sony Alpha A37 and NEX-F3 digital cameras leaked photos

Sony has been doing a bad job of keeping its new entry Alpha A37 and NEX-F3 digital cameras under wraps. We’ve seen leaked photos of the two upcoming cameras earlier and now we have a full list of specs for the pair.

Both cameras get a beefy 16.1 megapixel APS-C sensor, tilting screens and for $599 as a kit, they offer a great entry point to Sony’s Alpha DSLT and NEX mirrorless systems. But read on for the full details.

Manfrotto Nano VI and VII camera pouch review: budget, stylish protection for your mirrorless camera

Manfrotto Nano VI and VII camera pouch one on top of each other

If you’ve been into photography long enough you would have encountered the name Manfrotto. The Italian company is most famous for its quality tripods, but that’s not all the company does. Manfrotto also makes some really cool-looking backpacks, cases and pouches especially with camera gear in mind.

At Stuff-Review we like to keep our gear safe and stylish, so we’re always on the lookout for nice-looking and functional cases. I’ve also long pronounced my love for compact mirrorless cameras and when I came across the Manfrotto Nano pouch range I knew that I’ve just found my new favorite small camera bag.

The Manfrotto Nano range starts from the Nano I, suitable for tiny point-and-shoot cameras, and goes up to the Nano VII, the largest of the pack. We’ll be looking at both the Nano VI and the Nano VII, which are suitable for mirrorless cameras.
