Fuji are slated to release a higher end camera next year, so it's entirely feasible. If I had the money I'd buy an X10 tomorrow. The huge selling point for me is the usable optical viewfinder. Which is funny because I use a very high quality EVF on my video camera every day (actually a small CRT, not LCD) and even though it is superb for focussing and composing, for stills I would have optical every time. So yeah, I would be very interested. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ---------- http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
