It's getting confusing

 More from Fuji but without a viewfinder it's not a very appealing camera. At least for me.

Now Fujifilm adds a new ILC to their X-series; the X-M1

X-M1_Lineup_PressImage_061313.jpgFujfilm USA has just introduced the latest addition to their popular X-series of ILC models, with the addiution of the X-M1. Sharing similar specs to the X-E1 that was earlier this year, the X-M1 has a 16-megapixel APS-C  X-TRANS CMOS image sensor, phase detection AF, their new EXR II processing unit, a 3-inch tilting LCD screen, their X-mount interchangeable lens system, full 1080p HD video at 30fps with stereo sound, a plethora of exposure options and various creative filters, and built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. All this is packed into a slightly smaller footprint than the X-E1, and it's available in three appealing color options; dual tone silver, black, or a brown "leatherette". Body only pricing starts at  $699.

With the X-M1, Fuji also unveiled two new X-mount lenses. One of which is the new XC 16-50mm kit lens, which boasts a 24-76mm equivalent focal view, OIS, and Super EDC coating. You can bundle this lens with the X-M1 for $799 as a kit. The XC 16-50mm is the first in a new line of X-mount lenses, offering a lighter, more compact profile. The second lens is the XF 27mm f/2.8 prime lens, which has all metal construction, a fast f/2.8 maximum aperture, a high torque PC AF motor, and Super EDC coating - all for $449.95.
