Then with the X-T3 to be announced in the third quarter of 2018, and speculated to have a new APS-C sensor somewhere between 24-30MP with no confirmation whether it will be X-Trans, or Bayer, but the concensus is it will be a new X-Trans IV(without OBIS). .. -- Regards, Savageduck |

Nice to see the better macro capability. I'm still using a G10 for macro instead of sticking a +3 on the X-E1. |

When you speak of +3, are you refering to extension tubes? Have you considered upgrading your X-E1 to a new X-E3, the X-T20/X-T2, or even this new X-A5? The new generation of X-series cameras are leaps, and bounds ahead the first generation such as your X-E1. I currently find myself owning an X-E2, an X-T2, and an X-E3, along with four Fujinon primes, and two zooms. -- Regards, Savageduck |

Nice to see the better macro capability. I'm still using a G10 for macro instead of sticking a +3 on the X-E1. Which lenses are you using on your X-E1? I have three zooms and an 18 mm; not the lens they used to claim as a macro/portrait, I forget which that is, but it's not what I would call a macro lens.

Have you considered upgrading your X-E1 to a new X-E3, the X-T20/X-T2, or even this new X-A5? I'd certainly like an X-T2 body, and the long zoom (for sports) one of these days. The new generation of X-series cameras are leaps, and bounds ahead the first generation such as your X-E1. I currently find myself owning an X-E2, an X-T2, and an X-E3, along with four Fujinon primes, and two zooms. I realise they have improved a lot but I don't have unlimited funds. And I still reckon the X-E1 and the original lenses are pretty good. |

You might have an opportunity for that X-T2 body near the end of the year after they announce/release the X-T3, and if the have a repeast of their discounts. I guess you were not able to take advantage of the discounts last year. There were some good deals on those long lenses the 50-140 & the 100-400. That was my opportunity to pick up the XF16mm f/1.4 which is an absolutely amazing lens. -- Regards, Savageduck |
