Ordered an XC50-230 mk 2 from UKCamerStore today, should arrive Tuesday, supposedly new and only £208 incl VAT, 2 year warranty and delivery, couldnt resist at that price. Guess it's a grey import at that price. Tbh I think it's worth a punt at that price, paid by CC if it all goes belly up and I doubt I'd buy a grey if it was an expensive lens or body (which might seem odd to some folks).
Did a comparison test between my 5D3 24/70 f2.8 mk1 L and the little Fuji (x-T10) with its plastic XC 16-50 kit lens and was astounded by how well the Fuji compares.
Only a few shots, 9 in total, so hardly exhaustive or a real test but the weather was rubbish, so I was shooting f8, Iso 200 and between 1/125 and 1/250. Odd thing is in virtually all cases both cameras exposed well but gave different readouts for the same shots. Compared OOC Jpegs. Canon colours were perhaps a tad more accurate and the Fuji ones were a little brighter and popped a bit more, so OOC jpegs didnt need any post processing (IMO).
The Canon really scores on the viewfinder though, much brighter/bigger, but overall really pleased with the little camera.
