Not sure whether you watched the launch video? The zoomed live view looked pretty impressive to me. 24x zoom IIRC.Other question is how well the Live View works at 100%, hopefully not as it does on the 50 series cameras, but I don't hold out much hope as Fuji has never really figured out a good way to show a 100% view, even on the X series cameras, when compared to other brands.
Comparing the 50 series at 100% View to a Phase One back at 100% (before the IQ4) or any DSLR, the images on the Fuji are not as sharp as if the camera has gone past 100%.
The need for sharp, tack, images at 100% Live View has always been an issue with the 50R and S. And it's an issue for playback also, at least for me. The images are never as crisp and sharp unless you shrink the screen down below what the camera is saying is 100%.
