Rico has published his XF 90mmF2 WR First Look here.
 
I just started salivating!

Ok, thanks for the feedback and the links. here are my thoughts so far:
 
I'd need the 10-24 especially for shooting at the wider end. For the long end, I have 2 other lenses covering it (23, 18-55), So I don't care if the 10-24 is not a great performer at 24.
 
Between the 18mm and 14mm I'm tempted to keep the 18mm. It's optically not as good as the 10-24, but it's a compact lens (and faster). The 14mm is a great lens, and faster than the 10-24, but the 10-24 has OIS, so I often won't really miss the one stop advantage of the prime (I'll mainly use it for landscape).
 
So I basically decided to: 1) buy the 10-24 and 2) sell the 14mm
 
Now thinking to keep or sell the 18mm. Maybe I'll keep it, and set this rule: if I don't use it during the summer holidays, I'll sell it in September.

± 50 Euro might be enough wiggle room, if just barely. ;-)

Waiting for Firmware 4.0, and then I'll share some shots in this category

This is a very cool tool! I used it a lot during my travel in Cambodia for the fair trade X-shirts
 
Just a tip: the printed Images tend to be a bit overexposed sometimes. I generally slightly underexpose the image in the internal RAW converter and then print it for the people
 
This is just one of the many shots I was able to snatch, with the promise of a little print. She was really looking forward to get it
 
P.S.: Enjoy your travel in Indonesia

The Fujifilm instax Sp1 is a real nice have when traveling. We now traveling through Indonesia and instead of giving money I give them a photo with a personal message. Every one was very happy with this kind of gift showing of to other people.
 
The photos are not high quality but what can you expect from a polaroid ? People are happy when they get this as a gift. ;-)
 
So when you're are traveling to a country like Indonesia, Thailand, India people love to get this kind of gifts On the image one of the people I gave the photo. The photo does take some time to develop. I can't stop looking at it. He was so proud on his photo That all his friends have to see it

I'm afraid that this is not possible, for technical limits (slower processor, no phase detection pixels...) and, as other said, the X-PRO2 is long rumored to come within this year. So I guess Fuji will pack all these sweet new features in the X-PRO2... and maybe, thanks to the rumored EXR III processor, it should work even better!

Ah golden question that I will make also to my sources . For now I haven't heard anything. But I guess a X-E2 with ver.4 firmware would endanger sales of the X-T10, so I don't think we will see a ver.4 X-E2... at least not in near future.

Hi Patrick,
nice idea to launch an X-Forum! Like your Rumors page....

I strongly believe that the rampant selphymania is only a fashion like bell-bottoms and batiked t-shirts. But it's a very funny one and it would be a pity if we don't preserve those precious moments of tingly embarrassment.
 
So join me in collecting selphy scenes to entertain our descendants.
 

 

Am glad to be here. My first contribution
