Fujifilm @ Focus on Imaging 2012

Birmingham, UK: The 2012 Focus on Imaging show will give UK consumers their first chance to see and try the highly anticipated Fujifilm X-Pro1 - along with the wider FinePix spring range of cameras.

The stand will be showcasing the coveted X Series range: the X100, X10, X-S1 and X-Pro1. Since the launch of the X100 in April last year, Fujifilm's  X Series has been  extended to include on the X10 featuring a manual zoom, the X-S1 with its impressive 26x optical zoom and is now launching the long-awaited X-Pro1 with interchangeable lenses.

As a further highlight, Fujifilm has been working with 3 photographers who will be discussing their early experiences of using pre-production models of the X-Pro 1, at a series of presentations held throughout the show.  At 11am, 2pm and 4pm on Sunday to Tuesday, one of three photographers: David Cleland, Andy Fallon and Justin Leighton will showcase their very different styles of work at the Fujifilm stand.  The photographers will be describing their reactions to the X-Pro1 as well as being on hand to speak with attendees about working in their respective field of photography.

Have Scarcely Shot a Roll of Kodak Film on my HS20 EXR purchased on 19/Jan/2011 and Lo & Behold Already Replaced by HS 30 £XR ??

 

Does this Not imply Disatisfaction by Fuji Engineers on their Much Trumpeted HS20 EXR ???

 

I have Scarcely learned how to press 7 twirld the knobs and Dials:))  Had been Using Fuji S200 EXR Very Satisfactorilly !!!

Still I can hear Ye's Sayin Ahh Noo Stoppin Progress.

Nonetheless Fuji Are Bringing on Board Some Very Excitin Machinery:)))

DROOOL!

Damn I live 40mins from Brum when I'm home!

Looks like Fujifilm are sending ALL the dogs danglies to this one?

Don't despair Declan, if you hadn't bought an HS20 and waited till the HS30... 40... 50, just enjoy the brilliant HS20!

I can't afford an X-S1, nor an X-1 but I love my HS-20, it's fantastic.

As its just down the road from me i am thinking about going just to ask Fuji why they dont resolve issuse before they market their cameras. Am really happy with my cameras but its so frustating when you have niggly little issues which i am sure they can resolve if the wanted to before marketing them.
