Review: Fujifilm Fujinon XC 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS
The release of the Fujifilm X-M1 (reviewed here) also saw the release of a new kit lens from Fuji. This new lens, the XC 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS, is unique among kit lenses for a few reasons.

Mirrorless Battle: OM-D vs GH3 vs X-E1
This should be a fun comparison. I have the pleasure of having three of the best mirrorless cameras around in my possession right now: a newly acquired Fuji X-E1 with 35mm f/1.4, my trusty Olympus OM-D E-M5 and the Panasonic GH3, fresh into my hands for review.
