At 1 AM EDT, Fuji announced its new XT-2 to replace the popular XT-1 mirrorless camera. Its most impressive features include a 24 MP sensor, a faster processor, and an all-new auto focus system that is reportedly as fast and accurate as most DSLRs. The U.S. price for the body alone is $1600, and it should ship the first part of September. This is good news for those who have not yet made the switch to a mirrorless system. I shoot a Nikon D750 with all pro glass, but I also have the XT-1 with three very good lenses. I use it more and more, especially for street photography and when hiking.
