Originally posted by surfar Yes,very interesting.Its highly likely that they will bring MF to a price point where it will be highly tempting to the people who buy high end CaNikony.The AF adapters are on firmware 5/6 now,very good.With the FF crop mode(around 31ish MP) the CaNik users can transition quite easily.
I think the new 100MP BSI sensor is going to be very expensive. It will be a $10,000 body if not more. The Phase One is a $45,000 body, so if Fuji hits the $15,000 price point they will sell all they can make. If Fuji wants to run even 3fps with 16-bit RAW (100MP) then they need a huge amount of processing power and memory. Even with a lossless compressed RAW they will be near 100MB each. If Fuji uses X-Trans they will need 2-3x more processing power and memory since Xtrans is pretty hard on system resources.
If they can't hit at least 3fps, then people buying Canon/Nikon aren't going to be interested anyway. Its got to have the speed that these users expect. Both AF and fps.
