I would have thought it was obvious by now that with this colour filter array its inevitable that whilst B&W resolution is really strong you will always get slightly lower colour resolution. This is just basic physics/maths and those waiting for some mythical magical algorithm to solve this issue will be waiting a very long time indeed.

There is an obvious point to all this that no one seems to get. If X-trans is so clever and "better" then why after all these years of Bayer sensor cameras did it take little Fuji to come along and do it? I wouldn't be surprised if the engineers at CaNikon or Sony had thought of this years ago and rejected it.

Don't get me wrong I love my X100 and will likely buy an X pro for myself for Christmas but this X trans is pure marketing hype type technology to create a differentiator. Even the fantastic 35mm lens on the X-pro shooting a resolution test chart can't actually get any more resolution than the Panasonic GX-1 with the PanyLeica 25mm mounted. The numbers are all there over on photozone.de.
