Fuji X-Pro1-3

A tipster points to CP+ in February as the release timeframe for the rumored Fuji X-T1. Additionally, the X-Pro2 (successor to the popular X-Pro1) is being saved for Photokina in September according to our tipster.

If you have additional tips to offer on the Fuji X-T1 or X-Pro2, please pass that along to us via the contact form.
