Thanks all for your contributions. Feel free to add other suggestions or even improve existing suggestions. Indeed, this Kaizen process allows us to contribute to the design of our cameras, this is exceptional. I wish they would go even further and release open source firmware, but we're not there yet.

Hi ! To take part in the Kaizen process, a few Fuji camera users have created this wiki http://wikaizen.wikifoundry.com/ It is meant as a cross-community way of centralizing firmware updates suggestions. It will help us to collectively refine our needs assessments. It would also make it easier to create polls on the forum to identify the most popular suggestions. Ultimately, it could be used by Fuji designers to improve our cameras. Please feel free to edit the Wiki and contribute with your own suggestions or improve existing suggestions. I recommend you discuss suggestions on the Fuji X forum, it is more suitable for that.

I would buy an X-Pro2 without OVF. But it should be for the X-E3 what the X-T1 is for the X-T10 : something like an enhanced X-E3, with for example more physical dials, a larger EVF (the Panasonic GX8 shows that the hump is not necessary to achieve high magnification), a sturdier build with weatherproofing, a better designed hand-holding... While I understand the advantages of the OVF, removing it would lower the cost and allow making the camera smaller.

Is an OVF-less X-Pro2 necessarily an X-E3 ?

That's crazy, I know. But imagine Fuji release the X-Pro2 with an EVF only, no OVF. Would you buy it ? If so, what would in your opinion make the EVF-only X-Pro2 a "pro" camera, in particular compared to an X-T2 or an X-E3 ? Else, would you buy an X-Pro2 with the same viewfinder as the X-Pro1 or do you think an improved OVF is compulsory ? How should it be improved ? As we know, the current X-Pro1 viewfinder has some limitations (which can be part of its appeal). For example it doesn't cover the whole range of Fuji lenses. It is obstructed by many recently released bigger lenses. It has no continuous zoom mechanism. It doesn't have the highest magnification. So let's consider these possible solutions : either Fuji completely drops the OVF, or they keep it as it is, or they improve it. How would you feel if they chose each of these options ?

Only two features... a difficult choice... Automatic minimum shutter speed in auto ISO based on the focal length, with a user-defined multiplier and OIS compensation Exposure compensation in manual + auto ISO mode

Hi guys ! A few ideas : Sensor : good old Bayer matrix, 12 MPix APS-C optimized for dynamic range, with 16 bits raw output. Form factor : corner EVF like rangefinders, but with a grip like DSLRs, housing a large battery. Controls : - exposure compensation from +3 to -5, with a lever underside (XT-1 style) to switch between metering modes (auto/matrix, AF-linked spot and menu-customizable weighted metering) - shutter speed dial with a lever underside for -1/3, 0 and +1/3 EV shutter speed fine tuning (instead of using the command wheel) - eye-controlled focus point selection (as with Canon ECF) to choose the AF frame simply by looking at it - X100/Xpro1 style red front lever for depth of field preview, flash exposure preview on/off (for flash/ambient light balancing) and because it looks cool ^^ - instead of the on/off switch, a switch for off/single/burst, a bit like on Leica cameras - rear thumbwheel for ISO control - autofocus mode selector with an additional trap focus mode Auto exposure : full-time automatic exposure to the right (ETTR), with live raw histograms and blinking clipped highlights display in the EVF Shutter speed control : built-in image stabilization (IBIS) and shutter speed adjustment tracking user motions when in a camera-controlled shutter speed modes. Viewfinder : EVF with 0.70-0.74x magnification (to keep it small), with a large eye relief (30mm ?), and a good eye cup Other features : - Radio controlled flash system for multiple off-camera flash with independant metering for each flash - Weather sealing with ingress protection rating IP54 or more
