Really been looking forward to getting my hands on one of these for a while but didn't want to 'risk' it whilst the prices were too high. Been using the Fuji XT1 for past 4 years so was well aware of the quality of images sooc and knew 16.3mp sensor was more than enough. The XPRO1 is a joy to use and feels amazing in the hands. Build quality, functionality etc etc. I read that the a/f had been really slow when first released, but another plus with using Fuji cameras is the firmware updates so the a/f is much improved since 'her maiden voyage'. A range finder style camera that is great for a variety of work, (not suited to sports photography I've read), but that's never been my genre anyway. I use with vintage lenses and am blown away by the image output. If you are 'on the fence' about picking one up don't be! I did have an XH1 which functionality wise was far superior, but there's just something about this camera that makes me smile..... that could be why I now have two of them!Read full review

Even though this is not the latest model, and is only 16 megapixels rather than 24 of the Fuji xPro-2, the image quality is really good, some people have suggested that the sensor on the xpro-1 is better than the later one. The film simulation settins are really good, and the autofocus work well, even though it is slow by latest camera standards. I have found that using the optical viewfinder (with brightline frame) and manual focus cuts down the delay from press to click significantly, but is still a bit slow compared to a Leica M8, which is it's nearest rival. Using legacy lenses is great fun, using cheap adapters and the focus assist and magnified live view means that you can frame and focus with any focal length really easily. Once you have mastered the settings and the shutter delay you have a very fine camera indeed.Read full review

There’s something special about all the Fujifilm X systems and that stands true with the X-Pro1. If you don’t suffer from GAS (gear acquisition..) and you enjoy producing images which look organic rather than digital, you’ll 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 it’s 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 it’s quirks and keep all the settings in manual..(aperture, shutter etc) because of that you’ll have to accept that you won’t get perfect images every time but the reward is worth it..Read full review

I wanted a lighter camera foŕ my day bag than my Nikon D750. A few professionals had Fujis and seemed very happy, so I bought this older model, adding a 24mm lens, to try it out. Wow! I am not easily impressed, but this is beautiful. The image quality is excellent. Yes, the Nikon with a 35mm lens is definitely better, but this camera is for everyday use when I wouldn't have the Nikon with me. It's the display that stuns me though. It is so clear, and even more intuitive. Absolutely delighted.

Love the camera. Bought it as a backup to the X-T1. Cannot justify $2000 for the X-Pro2 yet... Only thing I hate is that you have to buy a diopter for the viewfinder. There is no internal adjustment like on the X-T1 or X-Pro2. Also focusing is slow but that isn't an issue for my type of use.
