The cost being at near $1K is the reason I will not order one. I honestly feel the M5 is an exceptional camera but at it`s asking price iIt`s simply too much for "me" to pay for a camera that ...

If copying was their aim , it might as well be Leica !

OK , the M5 looks good but isn`t cheap at $1k US I think the more important question is will mirrorless be profitable for anyone but Sony?

I never was much interested or was I too concerned about dynamic range until I bought the XF1. I received a comment from a friend of mine who is a high end Canon dslr user on an image I emailed him ...

Sony is the obvious best seller presently , no doubt because of it`s having both PDAF and viewfinder in it`s offering. Too bad the Sony kit lens doesn`t compare with those from Canon or Fuji low ...

Wrong again !  You failed to realize that thread was not initiated by me and only referenced to in response to the subject matter. Furthermore  , none of those cameras mentioned for sale was owned ...

Wrong forum !

Good enough can have a different meaning for each of us. In yrs past I`ve had a few of the best pro bodies and lenses that I felt was necessary to capture good images from sporting events that my ...

Modern P&S cameras are  at /near 24mm at the wide end.  The f30/31 at 36mm is not particularly attractive.

My apologies for the late reply.   KEH  Camera has (2)- X10`s at the moment. $208 and $228 . (LN)

I`d be absolutely embarrassed to admit what happened to you. And, I just can`t be sympathetic. I only hope you learned a lesson that most folks are smart enough to avoid.

I`d never spend that kind of money on a Sony camera . Most folks I know still associate Sony name with Play Station like toys. . Can they ever live it down?

At the moment , there`s a lightly used on on Ebay from Robert`s Camera shop for a paltry sum . http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fuji-Fujifilm-XF1-12MP-Digital-Camera-w-4x-Zoom-413-/142074865151?hash=item211 ...

It`s really nice to not have to drool every time a new compact is introduced. We might not ever see another compact that ticks the boxes that the XF1 does. I`ve been thoroughly enjoying my $220. ...

It sounds like Fuji is just hanging in there, putting everything on mirrorless.

It`s still unsold ! so much for the f31fd madness spreading around the globe.

Why would you consider the LX3 when you have the EX2? Of course the LX7 is a bit more refined but not significant enough to differentiate it  , IMO.

Roberts camera has a used 31fd in very good condition for a "Buy it now" price of  $57  free shipping right now on Ebay.  The ad even includes "make an offer" so it could sell for less.

My thoughts exactly !

I closely looked at just about every compact made in the last 4 yrs for IQ , handling , and current cost and the XF1 was a clear winner at slightly over $200 brand new.  It certainly has a couple ...
