Oh boy. So instead of making a lightweight X-PRO2 they are going full "camera for idiots who want electronics shinies and full auto mode" /facepalm. I was waiting to decide but nope, it will be an x-p

Everything you've said is obviously a facade, this is nothing but sad excuses to convince yourself not to upgrade (or more likely you want to find an excuse to purchase of a different brand). Of cour

It's like if biker would tell to cyclist that the fundamental disconnect here is that he need to realize an engine is now an absolute requirement for virtually any vehicle that has some wheels.

That's a critical issue for me. I still use an old X-M1 alongside my X-E2 just because a tilt screen is so handy for low and high angle shots.

 

The Series 3 sensor is making the X-M1 look a bit dated, so I wouldn't want to be still using it alongside an X-E3.

Then just buy an X-T20, jesus.

 

As usual people want everything for 500$.

 

The X-T line is a modern (more video oriented, features features features) line made specially for people like you.

 

The X-E/X-PRO line is made for photographers who make pictures, and want a camera that does not get in the way so they can concentrate on what matters (making good pictures. Hint : shooting random people doing nothing special in a street from the hip do not yield great pictures. It's a fun hobby tho. Macros never made legendary pictures either, they are very quickly forgotten.) Or I see another usage, people who want the easiest pockatable and light camera for hiking or street (with the 18 or 27 one doesn't need a bag, and at home they can use more lenses), the X-E line is perfect for them.

 

 

For this 2 kind of people, a tilt screen only adds bulk and complexity, and is something prone to break. It is not needed.

 

I think the products are perfectly lined up.

Fujifilm X-E3: "Some New Technologies not Previously Seen on Any other Fujifilm Camera“ (Trusted source)

 

 

 

 

Maybe this will be a camera that you can instruct to go out on her own and take pictures for you  ^_^ ideal for deniability. " I have no Idea your honor it was the camera own initiative "

This teaser is annoying. Just post the real rumor when ready, not this "I will reveal you something exciting in very few time" childish thingy, thank you.

 

it would not change anything

 

why? Let's do it like you suggest and wait for permission to share.

 

Ok... got permission, I write the rumor

 

"Fujifilm will implement feature XY in the X-E3. But another source says there will be more new features"

 

Ok... there is still a vague rumor about "more new features" that I can not answer, because I have no clue what they are.

 

So I have 2 option:

 

1) share the rumor and say that, even though I have no clue what it is, a trusted source told me "more new features will come"

2) do like you suggest and do not tell anybody that the X-E3 will have new features, until (if) I can find out what they are

 

I prefer to share what I have... and in this case it's a vague hint (more new features).

TBH blue tooth not exciting feature (but then it's a box with a hole), but would be useful, slightly annoying when i want to send photos from camera to phone, i got to drop internet connection and wait for wifi to change

Great images are not sll taken from eye level, and a tilt screen is good for low level shots. And for people with man-sized hands and noses, the X-T20 is too small, and the central viewfinder is awkward to use.
