anyone receive any call from Fujifilm Singapore yet, abt changing the sensor?

Nope I wrote to fuji Singapore again regarding this. They acknowledged the problem but will only act upon instructions from fuji Japan.
According the the news, fuji us will roll out the new sensors in mass around July/august. I guess thats when the replacement will take place(if there is one).
Anyone?

point it at any concentrated light source and take a foto.
you should see that it will exhibit the legendary X10 light orbs.
unless it is the latest and newest X10, even so, not sure if FujiFilm has fully rectified the problem.
regardless, just buy it with the perception that all X10 will have the light orbs issue.

Fuji US.... around July/Aug? wow... still need to wait i guess. sighz
Use ISO 100 then shoot a strong and concentrated light source like a street lamp at night.
My charger came with a different adaptor part attached. But they both have the same release catch which you can see in the photo. Release the catch and the adaptor slides off. The original 2-pin can fold in so the charger is compact.
hmm, not sure when they will replace all current stock, so even if u wait a while, u might not be sure if its got new sensor or not. fuji has not issued a recall, so current stocks might not get new sensor. not sure how it works. i'd recommend just buying it now, and replacing it when fuji says its available. of course thats wat i recommend coz thats wat i did. lol
rainman, here u go. i think its a weird thing on mine. lol. not a normal one. its not usually this complicated, i watched a video review where the guy had a normal charger, without this stupid block. will head over to the shop n get it exchanged, or get the part removed. frustrating thing is, cant use it til then.. they recommend a full charge before using, right
so normal shooting will be alright? as in day light, so night time mostly will have the light orb? sorry I'm a bit blur about it haha

normal Day is fine... bt at night time, the prob (orbs) will surface. if u want to see whether the x10 u getting have this prob, get it during nite time and test shoot at concentrated ligh source (as mention by Cheesecake) or long expsoure at iso 100, 200... you will likely see it. then decide whether u can live with it till the replacement of the sensor

don't intend to do long exposure, but will be shooting at night, maybe will push the iso to 1600? and flash, will the orb come out?

as long as it is a strong concentrate source of light, yes, it will appear.
you do not need long exposures to achieve the light orbs.
oh! ok, so i will just have to avoid those light source...
