What are the significant differences between this camera and the X-E2?
1611805
X-Pro 1 has a hybrid optical + electronic view finder whereas X-E1/E2 only has an electronic viewfinder. The X-E1/E2 has a built-in flash and the X-Pro 1 does not. X-E1/E2 is also smaller than the X-Pro 1. Finally, X-E1/E2 is about $200 less.

X-E2 is the next generation after X-E1. X-E1 in its turn is the same as X-Pro1, except X-E1 is smaller, has hybrid viewfinder replaced with higher-resolution electronic-only one, added external microphone/shutter release control connector, and some other minor differences.The rest of the differences are the same as between X-E1 and X-E2 -- X-E2 has faster processor, new sensor with faster autofocus (built-in phase detection sensors as opposed to contrast detection only in X-Pro1 and X-E1) and 14-bit color depth, split image focus view and other firmware improvements. http://www.dpreview.com/previews/fujifilm-x-e2/ has more complete list.

THIS QUESTION IS ANSWERED. THANKS TO ALL. (I ended up buying the Olympus E-M1.)

I really don't know. I am not familiar with the X-E2. I bought the pro since it has the older Fujifilm film colors as a selection, for in camera editing. That is mainly what I was interested in since I loved Fujifilm processing before they went digital. That was the only film I would purchase. Their processing in color along with black and white was exceptional. Sorry, I couldn't have provided a more knowledgeable answer.

The main difference is the finder. While the X-E2 only has a digital image finder, the X-Pro1 has a digital finder and an optical finder, that you switch with your index right hand finger on a level at the rigth side of the lens

Previous reviewers have answered the technical questions. I own the E4 and love it. I'm buying the E5 as a Christmas gift, and as it's pretty much at the same price point, I would suggest going with it over the E4 at this point. But the difference between the two is not so great that I would go rushing to upgrade from the E4 to the E5.

Unfortunately, the EOS M is not one of Canon's finer moments. Ridiculously slow to focus and ponderous with an EOS adapter and EOS lens mounted... There's zero question in my mind that the Fuji X-Pro 1 is the camera (out of those two) to have. I had a shelf full of EOS lenses and I still never bought an EOS M. It's a dog :(

Since the X-E2 occupies the same body design as the X-E1, existing X-E1 accessories remain compatible. There's one exception, though: Like the XQ1, X-M1 and X-A1, the X-E2 is using a standardized Micro USB port.

I was also deciding on these 2 cameras as a gift for my parents and ended up going with the A570. Another difference I saw with the A570 was the Face Detection feature and the improved Red-Eye Correction - I don't remember seeing those 2 features on the A710. In addition to that, my final deciding factor was the fact that the A570 is a newer model in the Powershot series.If you haven't already, I recommend watching the interactive video on the A570 - it will highlight some of the features I mentioned and is helpful especially if you're not as familiar with the Powershot series.I also purchased the Sanyo Eneloop rechargeable batteries which had good ratings.

Does anyone know the differences in the sensor size for the two cameras? Megapixel count doesn't necessarily mean better PQ, but a larger sensor does, right?

It is very hard to separate the sensor and the EXR modes. Even in some of the "manual" modes under certain settings, the EXR functions will kick in. I will say the x10 is a bit quirky but you can get some very nice images out of it. The Sony has a larger sensor and does have more lines of resolution on Popular Photography's resolution test at its base ISO. Sony has 2270 lines of resolution and the Fuji has 2130. The Fuji earns a low noise rating up to ISO 800 while the Sony only holds onto the low noise rating only through ISO 400. Very similar cameras with similar audiences. I can't really speak to the Panasonic as I have never owned or used one. Popular Photography has a website and has a full review of both cameras. They are very good reviews. May be helpful to you.

First, this has nothing to do with the X-E1. Its a great camera for landscapes. The only issue is slow focusing - which is of no concern with landscapes. For your question you have lots of choices:1) Shoot RAW (.rar files) and process in Lightroom or equivalent. Use gradients to control sky brightness. Make sure you use the latest version or LR (5.4 as of this writing), so that you're using the latest x-trans file code in LR.2) Use a ND gradient filter while shooting3) Use a tripod and bracket the exposure (e.g. - do you own HDR mode) and then process the result in Photoshop or similar toolGood luck!

Technically it has incredible Image Quality, so not just a good 1st, it's a keeper. It is more a question of preferences: If you like menus to control your camera, there are many others you could look at, however if you prefer dedicated dials like on film cameras for shutter speed, aperture and focus, it is Leica or Fuji X... I started with a Nikon F2, it went with me to every corner of the world. When digital came about I couldn't warm up to menus, did have a G10 that was quite good, but now with the X-E2 I am truly enjoying photography again. Keep in mind, it is not about the technology, it is about what you do with it, which also means once you find a camera you really like you can stay with it for a very long time, it should become an extension of your eyesight...

The Canon EOS-1D X camera is better. It has two CF card slots. Check out my review of the camera here.http://MichaelDanielHo.com/canon-EOS-1DX.html

I believe so. From what I have heard, the X-E1 and X-E2 bodies are identical. That said, I think the Live-view display on the E2 might be a bit larger (not sure). If it is, there may be a slight misalign depending on how Fuji positioned the display on the E2.

The X20 has a slightly different sensor that is suppose to be slightly sharper but the differences are very small, as to be virtually undetectable. Some people like the X10 better then the 20 because it has a more sophisticated and feature rich Contrast Control setting. The lens is exactly the same. I was dissapointed that there wasn't more of a difference. Oh ... the X20 displays some of your exposure settings in the optical view finder. But a lot of folks don't even use the optical view finder and instead just use the excellent monitor. It was pretty much of a waste for me to "upgrade" from the 10 to the 20 ... but my son enjoys inheriting the 10. :-) The X20 has a slightly different sensor that is suppose to be slightly sharper but the differences are very small, as to be virtually undetectable.

There is no real difference betweeen the two, other than adding the newer digic 4 processor (replacing the older digic 3 processor on the SX110). I don't think this is worth a premium over the SX110. As already discussed in other discussion page, the sensor is slightly smaller (BAD!), and they upped the megapixel to 10 (up from 9 -- almost useless). I really don't understand Canon why they released this camera without anything really worth upgrading from the SX110. I would rather recommend you the SX200, which have much more features, like wide angle, longer zoom, proprietary battery so you can see battery meter on LCD (unlike with the AA batteries), has quicker flash recharge time, speaker is placed on better position, has additional features like color swap, color options like vivid red/blue/green, you can erase part of a movie, and is slimmer. Or, if you want more pro but not going DSLR way, check out the new G11.

I own them both, and have been using them in my portriat studio for a while now. i'll say this, theres really not much difference in the two cameras, a few minor upgrades in the xti, what it boils down to is image quality, and from what i've seen they are equal. Just as fyi, I have been able to get prints as large as 20x30 from both cameras with excellent results.

Olympus dust removal is far superior, compared to any other Dslr's on the market.I'm changing lenses on my "Oly" quite often and never had any visible dust in my photos.So if you're going to switch lenses a lot, then Olympus is the right choice for you.You wrote: "When looking at the features of the Olympus E-510 vs. the XSi it is quite interesting as the E-510 has many similar features like: live view, dust removal, image stabilization." Canon never had & probably never will have "in body image stabilization", if that's what you're suggesting.They make lenses with IS - image stabilization and you have to pay extra for it every time you invest in a new glass.I hope this helps a little bit.BRN Olympus dust removal is far superior, compared to any other Dslr's on the market.I'm changing lenses on my "Oly" quite often and never had any visible dust in my photos.So if you're going to switch lenses a lot, then Olympus is the right choice for you.You wrote: "When looking at the features of the Olympus E-510 vs. the XSi it is quite interesting as the E-510 has many similar features like: live view, dust removal, image stabilization."

More bang for your buck will be the XTi, since it is cheaper and you honestly won't get much better photos from the 40D. However, if you can swing the money, I wholeheartedly recommend the 40D. I recently upgraded from the XT to the 40D. The additional controls make it so much easier to change settings, the larger size feels more balanced, etc etc. However, the XTi is a great camera, and don't feel bad about buying that either! It's a nice upgrade from my XT, which I loved for 2 years. You honestly can't go wrong with either one. Go to a store and handle each and see if one feels better in your hands than the other.
