Fuji X-E1 and new compact coming! Thread II


Anyone got photos of how XE1 looks like with grip? Seems not many peeps bought the grip.

I personally don't like the grip as with the grip on, it is impossible to change battery without first having to remove the grip
 

I have the handgrip on my X-E1 since the first day of launch of the X-E1. It is the most important accessory for me as it helps to keep the camera really stable for really sharp photos.

All the current lenses are without OIS, and thus shooting in low lights need good stability. This handgrip is a must for me.

Only issue is having to take it out everytime when changing battery, but no big deal as just 1 small additional step.

To me, this handgrip looks better than the one for X-Pro1, and it does not make the camera too bulky.

Love the handgrip so much that I am searching around for a leather halfcase which can take the handgrip too, just like those for X-Pro1 or the M9 with handgrip.

Just something interesting to share, for the benefit of some bros mentioning AF speed difference between X-P1 & X-E1... A real time test between the 2 in this following link:

Even if there's a diff, not much really. Good enuff for normal usage. D IQ n sharpness from both d cams r simply awesome.
 

does it have any canon mount adapter ?

Does camera affect the sharpness? I thought lens usually is the one that affect sharpness provided the AF is working properly.

True. But since both cams r without AA filter. Enhances d sharpness better than other cams

Not sure if this is any indication but I came across this on the Court's Website.

http://www.courts.com.sg/Products/PID-IP065126(Courts)/FUJIFILM-16-MEGAPIXELS-INTERCHANGEABLELENS-SYSTEM-CAMERA-FINEPIX-XE1-XF1855MM-BLACK

Earliest Available Date: 22 Nov 2012. Seems to confirm the estimated time frame provided by Fuji. Now where is the 14mm :dunno:

That's quite a good price for courts standard
 

Hee...just got mine at SLRR today.

EVF tech still someway to go to rival an OVF but at this current technological level its good enough for me :)

just want to share to everyone they will ship via fedex/ups/dhl some more.... free shipping to SG for only (roughly) 1,607.08 depends on the exchange rate. Even if Custom would ask you to pay GST still very good deal. This seem to be no frill package I didn't notice they mentioned any free memory card. But still very good deal I think.
