On the subject of legacy glass are people using anything but Leica fit lenses?
How bad is the auto focus in low light? Do you think they will fix it with a firmware update?
My 60mm f2.4 may be up for sale soon!
The lens map looks good actually.
I've listed my XP1 for sale, amazing camera and 35mm but not getting on with the 18mm and I need something wider than the 35, those new lenses coming look tempting though.
With the 14mm coming soon, maybe worth hanging on.....
Started to get tempted by this in addition to the X100, but need to try it to see how fast it is relative to the OM-D, as I would like to buy a mirrorless system that is a tad fast....

It's absolutely not a fast camera but it's plenty fast for my usage. If you want sports or hyperactive children photos look elsewhere but if you can slow yourself down and your main subjects are still life, landscape or portraiture the XPro-1 is peerless. It does take a lot of getting used to and can be frustrating but it's worth it in the end. I've had a D3/D700 combo with pro glass. The XPro-1 with 35mm 1.4 is up there in the same league and is light and small to boot.
Had mine a month or so with the 18 and 35. Haven't had a chance to really test it yet due to work, but will be taking it to Peru with me next weekend to see Macchu Picchu.
Well, as they say, jel.
I was in Macchu Picchu just under a year ago with an X100. Could have done with something wider at times.
If nobody has told you yet then DO NOT LIE IN AT AQUAS CALIENTES. Do not have breakfast. Be on the first bus. There's a snack shop next to the queue for it. You can eat and sleep the next day,
We have a guide from beginning to end, including Lima and Cusco etc. Its all run to a fairly tight schedule in any case
This tour takes a higher route too, which will see close to 5000m before rejoining the classic route! Fun
The firmware update Ver.1.11 from Ver. 1.10 incorporates the following issue
1.When FUJIFILM M-mount adapter is set to the camera body and the correction menu of "COLOR SHADING CORRECTION" or "PERIPHERAL ILLUMINATION CORRECTION" for the mount adapter is operated, corrected live image can be displayed on EVF/LCD for setting appropriate value with ease.
Maybe nothing to you - but it beats guessing
BTW rule of thumb is always to take f/w updates. Other issues that manus haven't admitted have a habit of mysteriously vanishing.....
I'll be updating as soon as I get home!
Great. That will obey my second law of firmware updates. You first
