Without a camera now. Been like that for 2 months. This is not X-Pro1 thread isn't it. I am not saying X-Pro 1 is not good. As a matter of fact, I love X-Pro1, think its the best travelling cam currently. Took some very good travelling (street) pics with X-PRo 1

Contributed my thoughts on Fuji X-Pro Scoop it too Fuji X-Pro1 | Scoop.it
But X-E1, if it performs as well as X-Pro1 (with same sensor, expecting similar results), I think it will have an edge over X-Pro1 as travelling cam (the fact that its lighter and smaller). Another question is whether there's improvement in video recording in terms of quality.. having option of mic is already a pleasant "upgrade" esp. for ppl who likes to take video while travelling. Another plus is the in-built flash, tho I prefer natural light, but if u try to shoot at night (w/o flash) with X-pro1, it gets very frustrating with the slow AF (even with high iso) so the in-built flash unit will come in very handy on those odd (dark) occassion. Everybody is entitled to their own opinions tho.
U want a sweet deal? Wait for me to sell X-E1 next time. After Xavierlin tho. Maybe I will buy 2 and sell to each of you.. so both can be happy.AMAZED by how judgemental u are.
Thanks for the deal of my lifetime but I would never buy something used in S'pore, especially not from Clubsnap.

Now this thread look like more into WAR!
X-E1 should be entry level from Fuji an able to detach lens.
X-Pro 1 would be high end body in Fuji line.
OM-D still in the top of M/43.
Nothing can be war here..
Just wait the announcement and decide which one to be stay
For me I would go X-E1 with silver color or OMD & play with panasonic fixed zoom f2.8 & weather sealed.

Doesn't matter what Fuji calls it, entry or not. If X-E1 is able to produce similar images as X-Pro1 (since both using the same sensor), it will prob sway a lot of ppl to X-E1, even those who had intention to buy X-Pro1 (esp. those who is not too bothered with the absence of OVF).
Would be good if they have option to just buy the body (X-E1) but I have my doubts, from marketing standpoint, makes more sense to sell as a package esp. when the demand for the body is high.
Similar priced what... U$1399 x 1.3 (conservatively, my suppliers using 1.28) x 7% GST and you get S$1946. It is below $2k.
Read the preview on xe1. Very attracted by the native iso of 6400. Waiting for further review on high iso performance.
Is the X Pro capable of high iso?

Yes, the high ISO performance on the X-Pro1 is better than a 5D2. You can read DPreview's review on X-Pro1 since both the X-Pro1 and X-E1 uses the same sensor.
Cool. So this means xe1 can also perform high iso, higher resolution, smaller, lighter and cheaper.
Guess i will be getting one soon. Thanks for the info! Great help.

read some of the comments in this thread and seems like some think the X-E1 is 'better' than the X-Pro1, especially in the AF department. In reality, both cameras are almost the same once X-Pro1 receives the firmware 2.0 update on 18 Sep.
