Japanese X-Pro1 review, with samples
Photo Yodobashi has a “review” of the X-Pro1 (in Japanese) with samples.
I heard the camera is available in Tokyo. I also heard there would be only 10 units shipping in Canada at first. Which is way too low.

Heading over to Brandon Remler blog once more, where he tested the 60mm Macro for the X-Pro1 with some random shots. See his portrait shots wide open.
X-Pro1 reactivity

Techradar meet with the X-Pro1 designer
Techradar met with the X-Pro1 designer at CES 2012 in January.
Jun Sato, Fuji’s Design Manager for the X-series, revealed that the X-Pro1 was about half-way finished when he received feedback on the X100 that would allow his team to finesse the new camera.
This means that Fujifilm seems to have a long term strategy. The X-100 was a starting point and the X-Pro1 should confirm what they are capable of.
And don’t miss out Techradar hands on review.

The Flickr community members are not wasting any time and already found the Fujifilm X-Pro1 manual, linked from Fujifilm own website. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some reading to do.
Goodbye Kodak, Hello Fujifilm
A quick explanation from Michael Krigman as to why Kodak is dying and Fujifilm is doing well. Michael bought a Fujifilm X-100 made of a Fujifilm sensor. But what did Kodak do?
As Kodak fades, FujiFilm embodies a new generation of photographic technology driven by genuine innovation rather than strict adherence to marketing formulas. A powerful lesson is hidden in this story.
Exactly.
