Congrats on the XP1. I almost ordered one from Canada yesterday. But I was so good and was able to refrain.
Really like that last one camera's output seems wonderful! Is there a difference in end result between shooting straight jpegs as Velvia, and shooting raw and developing it to Velvia jpeg in-camera?
Very nice shots, but they could have been taken with a Pana G3, Oly EP3, Samsung NX200, Fuji X100, Leica X1, Pentax K-01, Sony NEX5 or 7 and others. These cameras are all "good enough" as far as file quality/IQ are concerned. So why should I/one buy a X-Pro1, what does it do to ones photography "lesser" cameras couldn't do already?
Yes, I'm trying to stir the pot a little.
Lovely details. I'm still trying to resist badly. I do it by buying more lenses for the M9! But I am getting weak ... no more photos please!
