At CES 2012 I mentioned the introduction of a new Fujifilm high-end interchangeable lens camera featuring an all-new 16 megapixel image sensor. The lenses available are all high-quality, fixed-zoom primes (18mm, 35mm and 60mm). This mid-sized camera is targeting a goal of image quality comparable to high-end digital SLR cameras.

This is not an inexpensive camera with a retail price of $1,700 for the body and lenses that range from $600-650 each!


Fujifilm is definitely targeting someone really into photography. As to where this camera fits in the universe we will have to see after I can spend more time with this new camera and get some good test shots.
