I cannot believe this camera was made 10 years ago and the craftsmanship of this camera still looks amazing today. When I hold this camera, the grip, the touch, and the weight of this camera give me a premium touch. Thus, other than my experience, I will not share the technical specification. Post-editedīefore I start to share, I believe everyone is familiar with the X-Pro1. I think this is a good opportunity for me to experience the good and the bad about this classic guy. How is the experience using it in the outside world? I was always told that the first generation was slow and sometimes the focusing can let one person frustrated, and the list goes on. That is why I am lacking experience with the first mirrorless camera from Fujifilm.
I have never held an X-Pro1 and shoot the outside world with it. My first interchangeable mirrorless camera was the X-T2 and then now X-T3 and X-E3. I reserve ownership of these images, if you wish to use my images, please notify me. If there is any mistake, please kindly drop me a message and I will gladly make the amendment.Ĥ. Otherwise, the shots are straight out of the camera.ģ. Most of the shots are slightly edited in Lightroom Classic to my preferences. All the shots taken here are shot by me.Ģ. So that he/she can see what does this camera lacking for his/her shooting preferences.īut now, it is a whole new different story for me. And in this one week, he/she has to try to bring it with him/her and do some shoots every day. Hence, I always recommend my friends to rent it from a camera rental store or borrow it from someone who has it for at least a week. Unfortunately, I cannot share my opinion with my friends because I do not have one. “I am on a budget and I am interested to start to learn photography, do you think X-Pro1 is worth getting it?” or “Is X-Pro1 a usable camera as a second camera system?”. Why am I using X-Pro1? That’s because I come across friends asking me these questions many times: Fuji X-Pro 1. I do not own the X-Pro1 but I managed to borrow it from a friend for about a month to have a total hands-on experience with this classic rangefinder every day. What I cannot answer is whether it is still viable in the year 2022. A camera is a camera, it is still capable of doing what it is designed to do. First thing first, yes, you can still use it to shoot. The better screen and slight differences in design may also play a part in making a decision.Since we are just a few months away from the year 2022, please allow me to jump into 2022 instead of 2021.
When it comes to making a buying decision, it all comes down to whether you can live with using an electronic viewfinder only, or would prefer an optical device as well. Existing Fuji X-Pro1 users will likely be tempted to add another body to their collection, while those who couldn't quite justify the price before will also find themselves lusting after this. We can see the Fuji X-E1 becoming extremely popular with a large cross section of the camera-buying community. Fuji is squarely aiming its new camera at the mass market, which the X-Pro1, with its high price, was unable to appeal to. Fuji X-Pro1 vs Fuji X-E1: verdictĬhoosing between these two cameras is tricky, especially considering we don't yet know the official price of the X-E1.
In contrast, the Fuji X-E1 was priced, body only, at around £750/AU$1,200/US$1,000 on its release. A few months down the line and you can pick up an X-Pro1 for around £1,100/US$1,400/AU$1,400 from certain outlets. At the time of launch, the X-Pro1's body only price was around £1,500/US$1,700, with lenses each retailing for around £500-£600/$600-$700.
