Any bros ordered from b&h before ? Prices for the 18-55 set looks attractive.
the shipping is not attractive thou. :bsmilie:
It is!!
Hi guys,
I'm trying to look for some user feedback on the X-E1. Specifically I'm intending to use legacy glass (via M adapter) on the cam so AF is a moot point for me. Currently using a Ricoh GXR with M Mount.
1st Query - With the quick start mode enabled, is the start up time nearly instantaneous? Does it reduce battery life significantly with this mode on?
2nd Query - Manual focusing with the EVF - how responsive is the LCD when manual focusing?
3rd Query - Exposure compensation dial - is it free rotating or fixed after hitting +2/-2?
4th Query - How long is the shutter blackout time in between shots?
Its frustrating - you can find the cameras in shop but no one has a demo set for you to try out. There's only so much reading specs and reviews can tell you. Wonder whatever happened to try first before buying -_-"

Not to forget d thumbs up.
5now5torm said:Bro any idea how much the thumbs up is and where I could get it from?
I have both the GXR and XE1 with M lenses. Let me try to answer yr questions.
1. Startup is about the same for both. XE1's batt life is way much better than the GXR.
2. I think the GXR's refresh rate is a bit better but was never an issue for me with both cams.
3. Never tried
4. Quite quick, good enough for me for both
I find the GXR colors cleaner while the XE1 is warmish even when set to Standard. I use both as XE1's 35mm is really very good and it's got AF - useful once in a while.
2)I find the focus by wire to be sluggish as if there is a lot of inertia.
3)fixed
Sgcamerastore but price unknown yet as not launched yet. Should b by this weekend.
