Since you're a new member to the forum and so cannot yet buy or sell here, I would suggest you look on MPB, Ffordes, or any reputable dealer web site. It would help if you could tell us what sort of focal length you prefer. A good starting point for the X-E2 would be the 27mm, which is small, relatively cheap, and optically very good.

The link from camerapricebuster to the Amazon X-E3 at £619 now takes you to an X-T100 so it looks as though someone had indeed made a mistake. I hope they honour your order though.

looking forward to joining this group tomorrow when my X-E3 and 18mm f/2 arrives.
I mainly shoot in the mountains while walking and climbing (blog: http://mp-m.uk), but hoping that this will re-invigorate my enjoyment photography outside of the mountains. I used to shoot with Canon DSLRs but for the past 8 years have been downsizing in aid of having a smaller camera for climbing. However a few years ago I realised that I had maybe gone too far and started to upsize again (Canon 1D3 -> Panasonic GX1 -> Sony RX100 -> Panasonic LX100). Very much looking forward to having a system camera again, just need to find the money to slowly build up a set of lenses.

Yea, thankfully wide should be fine for most of what I want to do. Will probably try and pick up a 35mm prime as well, which should then cover me for most of what I want to shoot in the mountains. If I wanted to do zoom stuff I wouldn't be buying a tiny body 
Well look what arrived from Amazon today:-
I have to admit, I was sceptical when Amazon advertised this kit for just £619.99 when everyone else in the UK was selling them for £879 - but I pre-ordered one and low and behold Amazon delivered it. What's more is that they advised me that their 'price promise' (where they'll give you the lower price if the item is reduced whilst on pre-order) reduced the price by another £10.99 to just £609. I'm sure they got this mixed up with the X-T100 and 15-45 kit but hey ho, I'm not complaining

Well, I've only had the camera/lens a few hours but I'm quite pleasantly surprised. I was expecting the lens to be slow and clunky but it's OK - it's also sharp.

Just a quick and dirty snap of some Sedum.
What I was after was an X100F with a zoom lens for walkabout and so far, this combination seems as close as possible to that ideal. Yeah, I'm quite pleased ATM.

I am always surprised at the quality of the Xc 50-230 on my Xe2
Took this the other day at 89mm FF equivalent 1/600 f4.7 (Very near wide open) and a 100% crop.... considering I only paid £130 for it as a grey import the results are astonishing... I have never seen one so cheap since though.

I really like this lens - the IQ is very good and with the X-E3 it's a superbly compact and capable package

One from today's walk around Droxford in Hampshire - this is the River Meon which is one of Hampshire's famous chalk streams and a very important habitat. Needless to say, my dog shows no respect for all that.

I haven't added to this thread in quite a while, I found this file in my library and thought I'd edit it etc...
