One of the two images is real. Guess which one: The above one is the Silver X-T1 leaked by Digicameinfo. And the one below has been posted on FR Twitter.
Now back to serious rumor work: The new X-T1 has a by hands multilayer “state of the art” coating. High speed electronic shutter (up to 1/32000 seconds). And a price of $1,500 CAD (Canadian Dollars).

The 50-140 is really huge. I can’t see any reason for going with x-t1 and this lens, instead of a7 with 70-200/4 or, cheaper, with 6d and 70-200/4.
I guess that mirrorless apsc cameras are good up to certain fl/apertures, and not beyond that.
My daughter, when she was about 6, informed me that “Hello Kitty” was a brand that meant cheap.
Awwww~ she’s so cute and smart trying to trick you into buying her Hello Kitty branded products

Does it take 45 minutes to apply?
What I love about this blog is, once you’ve learned to decipher the pidgin english, you’re challenged with discerning which are “real rumors” and which aren’t. Keep up the good work, Ale!
I like the dlsr look of the XT1 SE. it goes pretty well with the paired high-end zoom lenses, especially with the battery grip accessory. a camera made for those who do photography.
