I don\'t think we are seeing a reflection of expensive new technology. It\'s all standard fare other than a new CFA.
I have not seen anything else like the heads-up, projected info such as live histo, all shooting info, etc. in a non-prism/TTL optical finder previous to the X100 before. Combining that with the EVF on demand through the same finder seems sort of innovative in it\'s application for a still camera. Are you saying this is just off the shelf, generic stuff and did not require a large investment in R&D from Fuji?
Edit. I\'m guessing you were just referring to the sensor with your post?
Sensor only.
The VF stuff is really exciting. But how much is based on X100, which should have helped ameliorate costs?
Yes. They did have to incorporate dual magnification and the accommodation of multi focal lengths into the optical system but everything else - basic design - looks to be shared.
