Both the cameras and the lenses of the Fuji X-series show what failed other world-class manufacturers and does not appear to continue to create. We should therefore compare the Pro 1 or E1 also no longer with the rangefinder cameras of German origin. The Fuji are simply a class of its own, who also earned a profile. I have both, and one of them is always on man.
What I can not understand is that on several occasions the camera system is replaced with the other camera system. I have several Nikon models both DX and FX area. I would not get the idea to sell them for the benefit of both Fuji. Because for all his enthusiasm for the X-cameras: There are variously tasks that I need give my Nikon together with its truly exquisite flash technology and also good lenses. - Maybe I should add that I use the equipment professionally.
But when traveling, on walks and in the city, as one of the Fuji is now doing most. For Street, the Pro 1 is the 18-55mm as well as the E1 with the 1,4 / 35mm - or vice versa. And for the distance I want to use the 55-200mm just received at the Pro 1. However, this lens is quite bulky (62mm filter thread) for my taste. This is me not so much, but the quality is at least as great as that of the other aforementioned glasses.
One criticism is me: If I want to determine the exposure in Spot mode, I always have to measure towards the center. The focal point Spot is in fact not be moved with my Nikons he is. Maybe solve this problem Fuji sometime times a firmware?
Despite the good instructions for the two Fuji I have, among other things, the Fujifilm X-Pro 1 Manual of Rico Pfirstinger risen (here having at Amazon). It is a very helpful, very pleasant written book that I recommend every single or transfer passengers. By the way, the owners of the E1 can use it optimally, because most information (up to everything that is said to the optical viewfinder) match.
