I think being "duped" is a personal permissive thing. You wanna be duped? O.K. Consider yourself duped. (Consider it a self-inflicted wound.)

...Which is why (last sentence of my post above) I would be interested in seeing some files that were direct conversions from RAW to a non-compressed format.

I would also like to see some tripod...

Wow! So much mewling and puking from the pixel peepers and measurebators.

Actually, the two landscapes present a bit of a PP challenge that, I suspect, most of the whiners are not up to. ...

Do you mean the X-Pro 1?

... For those of you who were wondering why just a link was posted instead of actual information. And that price includes, leather case, lens hood, and protective filter.

I don't think we know much at all. Trying to postulate based on videos of pre-release cameras is likely a foolish effort. I'm going to wait for some responsible reviews of the real thing, and...

If Fuji decided to take on the M9 directly with "full frame" (whatever that is), they'd have to do it with a whole different set of lenses -- which might be the Leica M-mount or not. I don't think...

Your contributions are always so helpful. They really add to the texture and quality of this forum. Not that your opinions are without value...But so predictable and b-o-r-i-n-g.

RDC - Rail Diesel Car. (Sometimes known as "Budd Cars".) The Budd Company developed them in the late 1940s. They were (except for one model) powered by a pair of underfloor GM diesel engines...

Nice picture. I had forgotten that any RDCs were still in regular service.

No kidding backwards! Unless you simultaneously save both RAW and JPEG, once the camera is done making that JPEG, all the other information in the image is tossed out. It's kind of like going...

Some of the interviews I've seen with Fuji personnel give me the impression that the marketing for the X100 and X10 may be a bit ad hoc. But on some recent United Airlines flights I saw this...

...the "mirrorless" RD-1 in this forum like a street dealer who's behind payments to his "protection". ;)

I think that this is one of those "where you sit is where you stand" situations. Larry: I appreciate a lot of what you post, but in this conversation, citing a career in photography is...

...But I plan buying the X-Pro1 and three lenses -- and plan on keeping both my X100 and X10. With the X-Pro 23mm probably quite a ways down the pike, I'd like to have something in the 35mm EQ...

...And let the guy in charge know that I would be getting the X-Pro1 and the three lenses. (He was able to get me the X100 and the X10 as soon as they hit the streets.) But I won't be getting...

Fuji sayeth: The problem with that statement is that it doesn't really tell us anything. Relative to My X100? A Nikon D3? My Ricoh GXR? A Leica M9? No metrics, no comparison. It would be...

Fuji is probably kicking themselves for not hiring you to design their cameras -- lol. But seriously...Even though you undoubtedly have decades of RF shooting experience behind you, you might...

This may come as a shock, but the "X" (not "ex") probably refers to the line of Fuji products. Now that's just a wild guess, mind you.

So...Once we wrap our minds around that concept, maybe we...
