Yes there are a lot of ways to look at this. Comparing X20 images from the web with my X10 images at 12 mp and at 6 mp.  The best I can do with my X10 still does not come near the web sample shots...

That second one is superb!

It would be nice to be able to see the original photo you posted.  All I can see is the DPR reprocessed images in various sizes, which might not be as glorious as the original you posted. To enable...

Looks like the K5 IIs makes a generally crisper and clearer photo. Too bad my X-E1 gives me a moire-free view of the resolution test chart. Perhaps the limits of bayer CFA technology have been...

I have a Samyang 8mm F2.8 fisheye which I have to manually focus on my X-E1.  No problems, but it does have to be carefully done.  On a tripod the camera can be still enough to focus even the...

Drooling in anticipation, I received my print copy of Shutterbug's July 2013 issue today. They like the X-E1! They also did lab tests on the Nikon D5200 and the Panasonic GH3.  They did some field...

This is about 3 years old, SD15 with M42 Vivitar 135mm F2.8 lens set to F5.6. http://mysite.verizon.net/vzesfls5/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/15_3951_2pp_hd.jpg I still have both the lens...

Beautiful shot!  I like the mood.

Nice to see Fuji is consistently delivering in the quality area.  I'm sure it takes vigilance, but it certainly builds trust. As for me, I don't see a 55-200 in my future.  I've discovered wide...

I've noticed that most zoo animals turn away from the camera almost immediately.  Too many flashes and they don't like it.

Creative use of near-macro capability, but the cat shot is a classic! I wonder if the Zeiss Touit 12mm will close-focus anywhere near as well.

Lots of good comparison stuff in other posts, but I like this: Compare the resolution of the D7000 to that of the...

It has a rubber bumper to space it away from the body, and a low profile so it goes into the camera bag without a hitch.  Really worthwhile I think.

Nice shots all!  Looks like you might have been somewhere near the Planetarium. I like to go up in the John Hancock tower to the observation deck.  They keep the windows pretty clean and there is a...

One of my favorite Panda shots from the recent trip my wife and I took (no accounting for taste). Here's another, more normal shot: These guys do little but eat and sleep.  Still, crunching...

Beautiful stuff, all the more because you used an X-E1!  Very nice choice of viewpoints and mood! I used to live near Morro Bay many years ago, in San Luis Obispo.  At the time I didn't really...

I have an early production X10 with slight orb problems.  Everything else is spectacular so I refused to upgrade the sensor. Comparing with the best of the web-available sample shots at print size...

I shoot JPGs and/or process raws in-camera so JPGs are the result. Then I use Photoshop Elements 9 because it works well for me and I see no reason to upgrade.  If I did upgrade I would go to...

My X-E1 came to me new from B&H in New York City. I kept the box and all packing material.  Looking at all this I seem to remember the body inside a plastic bag that had a Fujifilm anti-tamper...

I just finished uploading the last of these photos, 178 photos in all.
