I'll see what the XE2 will be like and at what price then I'll see how it goes. I'm still looking at the nex6 or a Fuji. Sent from my Nexus 7 using SeriousCompacts mobile app

I know the JPG OOC are awesome, which could be the first time I'l shoot jpeg om a camera of that price. But that isn't an issue, I've always shoot RAW and processed my own image.

I'll wait for the XE2 anyway since I won't have the money until November. Does the XM1 have the phase detect AF? Can you easily control the aperture, shutter and ISO on it as well as the XE1?

John, I like direct controls too, reason I was aiming at the Nex 6 in the Sony system. Regarding Fuji, I have been looking the XA1 and I'm sure you are right, they have a great digital signal processing algorithm. I would love a Fuji like the XE1 but I wish I could try one before getting it...

What didn't you like on the nex? What do you prefer on the Fuji? Sent from my Nexus 7 using SeriousCompacts mobile app

I'll have about $1000 once I sell my current camera, so the EM1 and P5 from Olympus are not possible for me. I can get the GX7 or EX1 but I'll be more interested in getting the NEX 6 with several manual lens like the Nikon 300mm f4.5, the Nikon 100mm f4 or the Vivitar 90mm f2.5. I already have...

I'm looking to get a mirrorless in a month and I would like to use old manual lens with it. So the feature of focus peaking sounds more than interesting. How well does it work? Can I use it for wildlife? Can I focus feast with it? Which camera allows this feature? I know Fuji, Sony and the...

Thanks Temo, it's true that lens wise I would prefer the em5, there is more choices. I still find that there is some noise at low ISO on the em5, nothing too bad but still it's there.

Maybe I should also look at the GX7, it's coming up soon, the only downsize is the kit lens (though is the 14-42 any good?) and the fact that you cannot get it in black in the US

yes, that 12-50 is nice for close up but not as sharp as the fuji. I love the way the Fuji camera look but I know the feature of the EM5 would fit me the best with those manual lens. Anyway, maybe I could find a good deal on a EM5 here or on the m4/3 forum. Is the 12-50 sharp enough? I used to...

Thank Gordon, that's a good sum up from some one who used them. I'm really between the XE1 and the EM5. For me, positive of EM5: + IBIS + Weather sealing + Wide variety of lens For me, positive of XE1: + low noise + sharpness + kit lens + love the control on it (can do the same with any other...

yeah, I have a good tripod that gets pretty small to carry around the 12-50 seems nice, it's not that sharp, I'll have to remove the close up feature to get something nice.

I would like a small walk around lens for landscape and nature with possible good close up (1:2 - 1:3 is perfect). A telephoto for wildlife. A fast wide lens for low light landscape. A fast portrait lens (something in the range of 50-90).

I liked the quasi macro function of the 12-50, though it's not as sharp as the 14-45. Once I get my money, which I hope in a month time frame, I'll try to buy equipment from this forum or the one dedicated to the m4/3. Except if I go Fuji,

I want the dial more than the flip screen but for another $100 I think it's worth it. Now the lens...
