Fuji X-T2 Leaked Images

I hope the rumored specs are true, this is going to be an awesome camera!!

Looks good, but seriously not enough to get me thinking about switching systems....

Good to see they pumped up the sensor to 24MP.  The 16 MP sensor in the predecessor was a bit outdated IMO.

My husband will be happy to see this.

Have you noticed these retro style cameras are coming back in style?  

I wish those knobs were not so tall.

What's the price of this one compared to the X-T1?

Is that a battery pack on the bottom?

Yes.

Glad I'm not the only one that thought they are positively enormous.

I posted my thoughts on this here:

About the knobs being "huge". A common complaint about the X-T1 was that the knobs aren't big enough. Fuji (as usual) listened to their customers and have attempted to fix the problem. It's less about style and more about usability. Fuji cameras have some of the best usability of any camera I've used (and I've used Canon/Nikon/Sony/Fuji).

The battery grip will hold two batteries with one in the body of the camera (unlike the 1 that's in the current X-T1 grip). This is great because it'll help with balance with some of the larger zooms like the 50-140 and 100-400 (and the 16-55) and it'll help alleviate the battery issues (fuji batteries are known to be a weak point of the system with most users having multiple batteries, luckily they're light and third party ones are cheap as chips.

Also, the battery grip will have a "boost" switch that will increase the fps when you need it (at the cost of battery drain I assume). Which is handy and not unheard of in the Nikon world (grips increasing fps).

The image quality should match the Xpro2 which is excellent and nothing to worry about.

It'll have 4K video. Which is nice. I just hope they have a 3.5mm mic input unlike the stupid 2.5mm on the xpro2. I also hope for a headphone jack.

It has an additional photometry mode called "multi" which is also on the Xpro2. This is something like the matrix (Nikon) or evaluative (Canon) metering.

The native iso is up to 12800iso too. Which is nice. Though on another system (Fuji uses a different ISO standard to others) this is more like 6400iso. Still you can get usable shots at 12800iso with the new sensor, so it's fine for most people.

The best thing about fuji is the colours and lenses. Don't worry too much about a lack of Full Frame. These days the difference between APS-C and FF is negegable. In fact the Xpro2 gives me sharper and cleaner hight iso shots than my old 1DsIII. It isn't that far off the 1Dx too. Though I do like the look of the 1DsIII for low ISO shots.

Good write up, any idea when this camera will be hitting the market?  

I'd guess $1500 to $1800 for the body only 

EOS Man - I'm going to say $1900-$2100 body only.  Want to put a wager on this?
