The 14mm is not a pancake, and Fuji claims sharpness from corner to corner. If they also have distortion under control, this should be a very nice lens.

Well, they apply distortion auto-correction (see the 18mm f/2 review) under the hood.
Given the size can _comparatively_ low speed of the 14mm they should not let loose altogether.
900$ is also not cheap.
They should have made a 16-50 standard zoom instead of 18-55.
Do you think the evf and auto focus will be better on the e-1 ? When I played with an xpro-1 in a shop the evf refresh rate (indoors) was quite annoying. I actually have high hope for the evf on the e-1 since folks are claiming it is the same one in the nex-6...

Yes, always a bit late on spotting the trends, that is the 24mm trend...
Canon 15-85, Zeiss 16-80, Olympus 12-60 & 12-50, Panasonic 12-35, Canon 24-105, Nikon 24-120, Canon/nikon/tamron/sigma 24-70 & so on...
Nice aperture, though.
