Quite excited about the potential X70 coming soon. Would be great alternative to Ricoh GR.

Let's say ...

can you imagine an APSC sensor camera with Fujifilm film simulations a size smaller than the iPhone 6 with tilt screen, touch focus and touch screen?

and imagine that this camera can do the focal lengths the GR can do too.

look forward to this X70 if its a true camera release

keithwee, you are spot on. That's what got me excited. Hope the AF is fast so I won't miss the snap focus

Supposed this camera is true (paiseh , not officially announced yet) , it will better AF performance than X100T due to it most likely having a more updated firmware.

A hint will be that it will be significantly cheaper than the RX100IV's launch SRP of $1399 (and that's a one inch sensor camera va this - a APSC sized sensor camera.

Check back by 1pm tmr for the full pricing details

wah X70 pricing comes out faster than the X-Pro2.

Btw, this X70 is in the same league as Panny's LX100 ?

First Impression: Fujifilm X70 by Bigheadtaco

Interesting note is the X100/s/t lens hood adaptor fits the X70 as well even though Fuji came out with a newer lens hood adaptor for this X70..

This will be the camera to make me jump back to the x series... The x pro 2 has nice specs but will wait out for newer version of the XT1...

prefer GR because cheaper and smaller, Pocketable

 

[keithwee]

Both are pocketable but well , every model will have their own followers. There's a reason why GR will always be around no matter how small the market is.

Hi five... I am having same thoughts as u..

Like what Keith mentioned.. Both are quite compact... Given the x70 has more features as well as a better sensor and speedier af system... Coupled with the freebies thrown in, I feel it's worth the extra couple of bucks... Do note also gr/grii doesn't come with an external charger (which probably gonna cost u another 60-70?) and no extra goodies...
