Why is this $300 more than the X-T50? It’s a bit shorter (viewfinder hump). Are there any other differences?
I was expecting to have a tough decision here, but the X-E5 seems about $400 overpriced to me?
List prices of the X-T50 and X-E5 are identical in the UK.
If the X-T50 was released today in the US it would likely be a lot more expensive.
I guess this is our indication of how Fuji is going to respond to American tariffs in the US market, then. Price increases for new models, but not for old stock.
I’m hoping to upgrade to an XPro4. Hopefully all this stupidity is sorted out by then.
I'm shocked by the number of people who seem to think Fuji was going to eat the tariffs. Hopefully that situation is ending or has ended.
I think they also might be seeking a higher profit margin from the cameras, especially ones that are in the style of the X100. Even without tariffs, I still think the camera would have been north of $1300.
In Hong Kong, it's the same price as the 100VI; in Canada, I read it would C$2000, which is about USD $1450. In China, the release price is purportedly 10k yuan, which is around USD $1670.
