I don't care about menus. I'm a photographer. I care about quality and ease of taking good photogaphs. I'm going to reserve judgement until I see what kind of image quality comes out of this thing. The menu tour was just ridiculous and pointless, at least for me. It took a while to buffer those images in after the burst rate demo.

PLEASE FUJI, MAKE IT IN TWO-TONE COLOR AS WELL!!

at 3:51 she says "Normal rangefinder cameras..." So Kaycee is calling this a rangefinder?? It may look like a rangefinder, but it is not a rangefinder. They have gone with Focus by Wire again even though this was slammed on the X100 (it is fantastic for making very fine focus adjustments)

It has to be said though, it is stylish, the pictures are superb, and they are actually shaking things up. I would love to see them bringing out a full frame X Series camera.

Finally, some company makes a move in the right direction. I am sick of everything looking like an iPhone. Fujifilm, count me as your customer (I already have 5 Fujinon binoculars, can't go wrong with this firm)

I want to know how it handles manual focus. Is it focus by wire for the new fuji lenses, and how do you see if you are in focus and where. This is interesting to know because of possible leica lenses - How you would find the focus with a leica lens mounted(or other manual focus lenses)

I wonder if that Q button can be disabled, I can kind of anticipate quickly messing up some settings while I walk around with it... I'm sure the reason 99.9% of the people that like these cameras (X100 too) is because it's so easy to access all key features manually. Addition of the Fn button at the perfect place to change ISO kind of completes the picture. I just set it to RAW and all the menus become unnecessary. Now if that Q button gets pressed by accident it could mess up some functions.

@BlouseFashion Just wanted to note, that in the video it doesn't show if you can take photos after you shot some pictures. The reviewer waited several seconds before she pressed the shutter button. It could be because the camera could not take pictures right after taking several shots.

[emilxt]

A serious con that X100 had was that you couldn't take photos while it was saving in multiple shot mode. Now I'm going to mark this walkthrough DISLIKE because Kacee, you yourself acknowledge this and then attempting to demonstrate @3:35 that x-Pro1 resolved this issue. You take consecutive shots, but then boldly cheating by NOT pressing anything while it's saving and just talking and then after several seconds - oh look I'm taking more pics while it's saving! So the question remains UNANSWERED.

Well roared, I'm sick of menus anyway, the main appeal of this camera is near manual everything. Set to RAW, set ISO and aperture and off you click on A or metered manual. I'm sure the lenses are drop dead gorgeous, ALL Fuji lenses are. Picture quality, viewfinder (both optical and EVF), shutter lag, shutter noise, AF speed, low light performance – that's what matters really.

Looks good .. I await the reviews
