Fujifilm Mirrorless Camera System Will Pack “Premium” Sensor, Not M4/3
The Fuji Guys sent out a tweet today saying that the company’s upcoming interchangeable lens mirrorless camera will not have a Micro Four Thirds sensor inside:
X Series Interchangeable lens system not = M4/3 nor current mirrorless cams. X series will be “premium” cameras!
From what’s being said, it sounds like the company is focusing on sensor size and image quality — good news for serious photographers. People have been begging for an X100-style camera with interchangeable lenses since that camera was announced, and Fujifilm likely isn’t ignorant of that fact.
Here’s a second tweet posted to the account today:
It’s curious that they mentioned “X100” twice. Is that a typo? Perhaps the new camera will be called the “X1” or the “X1000”. We’ll find out soon enough — the company is planning to spill the beans at CES 2012 in early January.
