The Fuji X-Pro 1 has become my 'go to camera' for day to day personal shooting. I've not yet unleashed it on a professional job yet, but the only thing that is stopping me from doing just that is my limited range of lenses (just 2 primes - 18mm and 35mm). The quality of the images this camera produces are astounding. High ISO, low ISO, the results are more than usable. I remember the days when you were expecting grain/noise at 400iso. I regularly use the Fuji at 6400 and it looks like old school 400iso.I've shot thousands of images using the Fuji since I bought it in March. It's been my almost constant companion. It does take some work to get the best out of it, but that makes the use of the camera all the more joyful. This isn't a point and click. It's a proper ... MoreThe Fuji X-Pro 1 has become my 'go to camera' for day to day personal shooting.

It does take some work to get the best out of it, but that makes the use of the camera all the more joyful. This isn't a point and click. It's a proper piece of photographic kit. It can do snaps, but hone your technique, choose your settings wisely and boy, does it deliver! It's in built jpeg processing is very good indeed, but old habits do keep me to shooting both RAW and jpeg and processing the Raw's in Capture One Pro. Haven't really found a real weak spot yet. OK the focussing is a bit sluggish at times, but you can easily get over that by going manual, which is really easy to use and the Exposure Compensation dial is a little too easy to move, but again, when you are aware, you automatically check and to be honest the rare occasion I didn't immediately notice it had moved, the RAW files hold so much detail, it wasn't an issue!If you are used to lugging about kilo's of kit but think you won't get acceptable results from a little camera, you need to check the Fuji's out! They are very good indeed.

Theres something special about all the Fujifilm X systems and that stands true with the X-Pro1. If you dont suffer from GAS (gear acquisition..) and you enjoy producing images which look organic rather than digital, youll love this. The feel of the body itself is premium, all metal, solidly built (just like the lens). My X-E2 feels like a toy in comparison.. as its smaller but is also special in itself. 16mp is more than adequate, the focus is fast even in low light (which is a contradiction to what others say? play with the settings, never wished for faster), and the OVF is great, just switch on corrected AF frame in the menu and learn about parallax.. BUT.. this camera is NOT for everyone. You need to spend time with it, learn its quirks and keep all the settings ... MoreTheres something special about all the Fujifilm X systems and that stands true with the X-Pro1.

I purchased this several years ago new from Adorama, and kept it for about two years. It is a beautiful camera with a unique shooting experience. The 16mp X-trans sensor renders lovely images. I found it to be extremely solid and durable despite it's light weight. I actually dropped it twice onto concrete from about 2 and 2.5 meters and it only produced a minor scratch on the bottom corner. The hybrid viewfinder is very bright and large and a marvel of engineering. I eventually sold it only to downsize to one system shared with my wife, our Nikon DSLRs. I only gave it one star less than a perfect five for one annoyance, that the effective or apparent viewfinder focal distance was different between the optical and electronic viewfinders. This was a major challenge ... MoreI purchased this several years ago new from Adorama, and kept it for about two years. It is a beautiful camera with a unique shooting experience.

This was a major challenge wearing bifocal glasses, and an add-on diopter correction lens helped but did not completely solve it. I see the new XPro2 has added built-in diopter adjustment. Loved this camera, and might just pick up a used one again as they've become so inexpensive.
