Fuji has added a second interchangeable lens camera to its lineup, with the X-E1 boasting many of the same specs as its brother, the Fuji X-Pro1.
The Fuji X-E1 features a 16 million pixel APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor, the exact same device as found in the Fuji X-Pro1. Its unique colour filter array has been designed to minimise noise and false colours without need for an optical low pass filter.
It also features the same processor and lens mount as the X-Pro1, meaning image quality should be on a par.
The body of the compact system camera is smaller and also features an in-built flash. Unlike the Fuji X-Pro1, which uses a hybrid optical and electronic viewfinder, the Fuji X-E1 uses an electronic device only. It is a 2.36 million dot device, making it one of the highest resolution EVFs currently on the market.

Both the top and front covers of the camera are made from die-cast magnesium, while it also includes a rubber grip for additional purchase when holding the camera.
Kit lens
Also announced today is the Fujinon XF18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS lens. Fuji is keen to point out that this is not an average kit lens, and features a metal design and an ultra wide maximum aperture that is brighter than the equivalent optics from other manufacturers.
Just like the Fuji X-Pro1, the Fuji X-E1 features a number of creative "Film Simulation Modes" to simulate the textures of conventional photo film, such as Velvia and Provia.
Full HD video recording at 24fps is available, along with the ability to use Monochrome or Film Simulation modes when video recording. A microphone can be connected via a 2.5mm jack.
Fujifilm X-E1 specs:
16.3 million pixel APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor
EXR Processor Pro
Fujifilm X mount (for Fujinon XF lenses)
2.36 million dot OLED EVF
2.8 inch, 460k dot LCD screen
ISO 200-5400, extendable to ISO 100 and ISO 12800/25600
