It's 5 Sep today, waiting for announcement impatiently.

 

[yrh0413]

Maybe it is just a rumor after all....

 

[vengels]

Different timezone that's why no news yet?

 

[bojee]

Hoping they announce it tonight.

Though, I doubt it will bring the X-Pro 1 to the same AF speed level as the X-E1.

Yeah, this sucks.

 

[yrh0413]

who knows? Maybe the AF speed improvement applies onto to the newer XF lens (linear motor?). If that is the case then X-Pro1 will have the same AF speed as X-E1.

The question is whether the XE-1 with the old lenses (18,35,60) is significantly faster than the x-pro1 with these lenses. Early adopters will get shortchanged.

An almost 2-week wait. I can hardly wait!

Other additional functions:
Auto (6400) has been added to the ISO setting. This increased ISO not only speeds up the shutter speed, but also stabilises the image and mitigates blurring of the subject.

There is no mention of changing minimum shutter speed on auto ISO. Hopefully they add it in as well.
