I have only had my Fuji X-Pro 1 for a couple of years, so those of you who 
know my indifference towards technical details will not be surprised that I 
discovered only this week that the DNG pictures (once converted from RAW by 
Lightroom) from the Fuji are huge, 50-60 MB. This compares to the Leica M8 
at around 7-8 MB. I shoot RAW only (i.e. no RAW+JPG, pure RAW for me thank 
you), and while I suppose the X-Pro 1 has more megapixels than the M8, I 
don't think it is that many more.

Have others who have the Fuji X cameras noticed the same thing?

Good thing storage is cheap these days.

Cheers,
Nathan
