With its compact, travel-friendly size, the X-E1 promises to be an exciting addition to the FUJIFILM X-Series.

Both semi-pro bodies could resemble their ancestors on the outside, based on Digicam-info's images, but reportedly tackle the autofocusing performance issues that have dogged the X-series up to the X-Pro1.

X-Men: First Class, released in 2011, took the X-Men storyline back to when Professor X and Magneto were young men and the origin of the group of mutants known as the X-Men and the Brotherhood of the Mutants.
Independent Capability: Proponents contend that, given the fact that the Japanese have already designed the FS-X predecessor (the F-1) and have coproduced the F-4 and F-15 fighter aircraft with McDonnell-Douglas, the Japanese have an independent capability, with time, to design and produce the FS-X.

The FUJIFILM X-E1 follows in the tradition of the award-winning FUJIFILM X-Pro1 and utilizes the same proprietary 16.3 Megapixel APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensorTM and the same X-Mount for use with FUJINON XF lenses, all in a body that is 30% smaller than the FUJIFILM X-Pro1.

As one who argued last February that the reasons that prompted the Japanese to agree to co-development of the FS-X in the first place (commercial self-interest, not altruism) would continue to govern, I am gratified that it proved possible to revisit and improve some of the points in the original deal.
As a point of departure for my testimony, I would like to ask that a paper recently prepared by the Center for Security Policy concerning the pro's and con's of the original FS-X arrangement entitled "The U.S.-Japan FS-X Agreement: Assessing the Stakes" be inserted in the record in its entirety at this point.
The highly responsive linear motor in the XF18-55mm lens combines with the high-speed signal readout of the X-Trans CMOS sensor and the EXR Processor Pro, to achieve a huge leap in AF speed and precision performance.

We were told, of course, that the optimal means of meeting Japan's air defense commitments in the 1990's -- namely, an off-the-shelf purchase of F-16's -- had been categorically rejected by the Japanese and that the FS-X deal was the best of the remaining options.
Mr. Chairman, Members of the Subcommittee, I appreciate very much the opportunity to participate in what will prove to be, I am certain, but the first of many congressional hearings into the U.S.-Japanese agreement on the FS-X fighter aircraft.
Trade Benefits: The FS-X will help the U.S. trade balance in the short-term.

Particularly noteworthy in this regard are new, express commitments to percentage shares of the co-development and co-production phases of the FS-X program.
Is Japan willing to consider offsetting the codevelopment arrangement on the FS-X with a substantial off-the-shelf defense purchase to demonstrate Japanese willingness to buy American when it is sensible to do so?

Mr. Chairman, Members of the Committee, I appreciate very much the opportunity to participate in your deliberations on the revised U.S.-Japanese agreement governing co-development and co-production of the FS-X fighter aircraft.
Opponents in both Houses have, nonetheless, begun to express serious reservations about the FS-X deal, principally on the grounds that the long-term implications for U.S. competitiveness have not been adequately factored into the arrangement.

According to a recent tweet, Singer has three new ducks: He has just acquired the talents of Anna Paquin, Shawn Ashmore (both in X-Men, X2, and X-Men: The Last Stand), and Ellen Page (X-Men: The Last Stand), who played Rogue, Iceman, and Kitty Pryde, respectively.

The merits of urging the packaging of the FS-X project with a major off-the-shelf purchase from the United States should also be seriously examined.

Indeed, the fact that one such interceptor, the SH-08, has previously been associated with the mobile ABM-X-3 system heightens concerns about the likelihood of a rapid and widespread deployment.

Although technically the FS-X codevelopment project is not subject to the 30-day congressional waiting period under the Arms Export Control Act, the Bush Administration evidently for political reasons has decided to treat the matter as though it were subject to the 36(c) provisions of the Act.

As opposed to the near-term improvement an off-the-shelf procurement of modern U.S. aircraft could have afforded, the FS-X will not enter service until the late 1990s.

This is how Nasa launched its most recent mission in June - the Nustar X-ray Observatory.

That said, this is hardly a compact mirrorless -- the X-E1's still got a bit of girth and weight to it, compared to some of the smaller entries in the field.
However, Richard Aboulafia of the Teal Group, an aviation consultancy, thinks there is more technological risk with the Leap-X than with the GTF and greater uncertainty about whether it will deliver the same cost savings.
My personal view, however, is that if the executive branch is conscientious in its conduct and rigorous in the analysis of its competitiveness review that analysis will probably produce evidence that would argue against going forward with the FS-X deal under the present terms.
The W series of LED BRAVIA televisions includes the KDL-W650A, KDL-W802A and KDL-W900A. All models are Wi-Fi enabled, with the W900A TV incorporating NFC features of the X- series, TRILUMINOS display, X-Reality PROTM picture engine and active 3D capability.
