I don't think so. If I was going to buy a medium format digital, I'd be
saving my pennies for a 645Z

Fuji says its not the Sony, but one they developed themselves. But as I

Xtrans makes it useless to me. I hate xtrans. All it does is slow down the
workflow with no real benefit.

Comparing medium format cameras, I might as well compare a McLaren vs a 
Ferrari. But I expect it will have some very nifty features.

No drool from this direction. It has a couple of deal-breakers: no
OVF, only EVF, and a brand new lens mount, so no legacy glass, only
brand new (read expensive) lenses.

The 645z continues to satisfy every photographic need I have.
