Fuji X10?

Smaller camera, smaller sensor, no viewfinder.

If I'm not mistaken, it looks like the camera is mainly selling its retro looks, since there doesn't appear to be any advantage to handling (no VF) or sensor quality.

f/2 with "4x optical zoom"? OK, now I'm intrigued (and confused).

The "X50" supposedly keeps the same focal length (in the 4x3 sensor equiv. to 35mm, in line with the APS-C sensor equiv. to 35mm), no "optical zoom".

I completely missed the missing VF (it is, after all, an alleged X10)

So, are the X10 and the X50 the same camera?

Both names are speculation I think... but the discussions are about the same, slightly dodgy mockup!

The new X0.5 has no lens and no sensor. Expected price $29.95. The rumor mills grinds on.

Okay. I get it now. It's the Canon G12-killer. Fuji's trying to corner *all* the niche markets.
