It would make lots of marketing sense for Fuji to base their new system, which has been confirmed in the French media as well, on the APS-C. They dominate the expert/pro market in the one lens camera market and have all it takes to dominate the mirrorless exchangeable market as well, because they understand the importance of lenses. Sony never has and Samsung does not seem to know how to market their excellent product so it is all open for Fuji.

Fuji is not strong enough for an own platform IMHO - just like Ricoh (who combine insufficient company power with an odd product design).
If they want to be successful they must go for either MFT or Sony E mount. The full format alternative would be Leica M - maybe.
