Review on a pre-production unit. Notice the extreme sharpening which can't be turned off - causing border noise and some jaggies. Hope this gets fixed in the production units.

Piang...second half then so early bring stock in...(provided the insider saw correctly) :dunno:

 

[mpenza]

They might be optimising the algorithms, firmware etc or they could have discovered some bugs ;p

Don't mind actually.... the longer before it comes the more interest I would get from my deposits ;p

this is so depressing...why can't they launch it earlier so that everyone can get one for the holiday trips? they're losing their market share here....

dunno. maybe that's just the official response to give themselves more time. if things are sorted out, release might be earlier.

Hmm...maybe Fuji found a last minute bug/flaw? If that's the case, I'd rather wait...:dunno:
