Sony and Fuji at Amazon

Sony RX100M II  (or RX100M2) is among the most popular cameras on Amazon. The price for the new camera is just $100 higher than for RX100. RX100 was very popular, and the new model adds few useful things to the proven concept.

Sony also dominates sales of compact system camera (excluding heavily discounted cameras). NEX-5R, NEX-6L/B and NEX7 essentially dominate this sector.

Interestingly, release of Fuji X-M1 boosted the sales of Fuji X-E1. In fact, X-E1 is more popular than the recently released X-M1. Obviously, Fuji X-E1 offers more than X-M1 including a superior XF18-55mm F2.8-4 OIS lens. This should send a very strong signal to the company. Fujifilm got it right with Fuji X100 and X100S, and hopefully it will do the same with Fuji X-E2 and X-Pro2.
