Now listen to us companies. If you want to create a true fellowship around your system just learn from Fuji. Today they announced the new X-E2 firmware (download here). In one strike this is what has been improved:
– Enhanced EVF including the world’s fastest* display lag-time of 0.005 seconds
– Selectable colors for outlines for Focus Peak Highlight
– Added functions that can be assigned to the Fn (Function) button
– Added “Suppressed Flash” option when selecting flash mode
– The phenomenon is fixed that in FILM SIMULATION Bracketing, third picture is recorded as “ASTIA” although the third picture is set as “PRO Neg. Hi”.
Basically X-E2 owners will now have an EVF which matches the X-T1 EVF performance.
And if you wnat the X-E2 well there is a up to $100 off at Amazon US (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here). What else do you need to buy one?

As you said, admin, all the companies should learn from fuji. Instead, many other ones just try to sell the latest product, even when the previous one would be more than capable with a fw upgrade. An example? Samsung nx30 has an enhanced remote evf app, letting ppl to change settings like aperture and shutter speed remotely. The older nx300, which has exactly the same processor, besides having the same sensor, recently got a fw upgrade, which did NOT add the new feature.
So shame on samsung and viva fuji.
Samsung isn’t doing anything that Canon or Nikon wouldn’t do. They cripple lower end models constantly to make sure there is a clear difference in what they’re selling.
FujiFilm is gambling on loyalty on both sides to start showing up in big sales. A few hundred thousand camera bodies isn’t a whole lot, is it, when Nikon puts out something like the D3300 and will sell millions of that model alone.
Fuji, give me X-T1 wifi functionality to my X-E2 pleaseee…
