We’ve already sorted in the course of the specs , and laid our hands on its rather sexy frame, now Fujifilm’s offering up a more palatable price ticket than we expected for its throwback X10 shooter. Starting sometime in early October, the X100′s cheaper little brother will set nostalgic point-and-shooters back $599.99 — about $100 bones lower than the estimated $715 to $860 ballpark we threw out back in September. If you’ll recall, the X10 packs a 12 megapixel EXR CMOS sensor, f/2-2.8, 28-112mm manual zoom lens, as much as 12,800 ISO sensitivity, 1080p video, an optical viewfinder, and pa-up flash. No word yet on a last release date. Full PR after the break.
