I usually blog in French but I think that Mister Fuji speaks English or Japanese. I do\u00a0not speak Japanese so today\u2019s blog post will be in English!<\/p>\n

Dear Mister Fuji,
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

I hope you are doing well. You did a great job last year with the X Revolution and you\u00a0did extremely well over the last few months with events such as the Photokina, the UK\u00a0show and the launch of new lenses. This way of penetrating the market with prime\u00a0lenses and high dynamic sensors was audacious but you did it and I am proud of you.<\/p>\n

Everyone in the Fuji community (yes, you built a community around your brand) is\u00a0waiting for your\u00a0PRO2 but I prefer to send you a brief summary of what we expect of\u00a0this camera!<\/p>\n

I was in London one month ago and having a chat with your recent X-Photographer\u00a0friend, Mr Vi Opoku<\/a>, we concluded that the future of Fuji is in wedding photography.<\/p>\n

Indeed, on a wedding day we work for 12, 15 or 18 hours with our cameras and,\u00a0believe me, my back feels the difference when I use your stuff! (I had the choice: go Fuji or go to the gym every day… thank you, now I can stay at home or have some\u00a0beers with friends \ud83d\ude09 )<\/p>\n

I know that your target is street photography but please listen to me, or wait for a few\u00a0years to prove me right. You are my friend, so I will accept your mistake \ud83d\ude09\u00a0With the quality of your lenses, with the weight of your cameras, with stunning JPEG\u00a0to share directly with the WiFi on our Facebook pages you did something awesome\u00a0that allows us to provide a better service to our customers.<\/p>\n

Well, I almost forgot the first goal of my letter: my wishlist !<\/p>\n

– Keep with this vintage look \u2013 it’s sooo cool!<\/p>\n

– EVF or natural viewer: both please! Just keep the natural viewer of the X-PRO 1\u00a0but\u00a0use the EVF of the X-T1. Both are amazing but when I use the natural viewer, I always\u00a0have a worse AF than with the EVF. Please improve it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

– Sensor: It’s technical stuff and I do not care but keep on making something different\u00a0in terms of dynamic range. It rocks!<\/p>\n

– JPEG: Yours are amazing and you should keep this level of quality for everyday\u00a0pictures and fast preview for my friends and customers.<\/p>\n

– AF: Blah blah blah Fuji AF: continue to improve it with the next updates of your\u00a0firmware: it rocks, guy!<\/p>\n

–\u00a0WiFi: add the WiFi on your pro camera. I shared on Facebook the pictures I took\u00a0during a wedding: it was just amazing to see people liking and commenting my work\u00a0live during the dinner.<\/p>\n

– Dual-slot: Please allow us to use 2 cards simultaneously in your future pro camera.\u00a0It helps to decrease my level of stress and would allow me to use an Eye-Fi card with\u00a0small JPEGs and a big SD card with big RAF files.<\/p>\n

I will wait for your X-PRO2 but it is your son, not mine, so if you want to brand it with\u00a0a different name, it is up to you. I will love him anyway!<\/p>\n

I know these things are easier to discuss over a drink. Just let me know when we can\u00a0meet, I will be happy to tackle this subject with you.<\/p>\n

If you have any stuff to test before the whole market buys your cameras, do not\u00a0hesitate to contact me. I will do the job for you!<\/p>\n

PS : If you are a Fuji photographer, do not hesitate to add your keypoints to my wishlist in a comment ! I will be happy to discuss these with you.<\/p>\n

PPS : All my pictures were taken in JPEG by my friend Jean-Michel Renoirt, with an X-100 S and without post-processing. Do not hesitate to follow his Facebook page<\/a>, his work become better day after day !<\/p>\n

Thanks for these images Jean-Michel !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
