Hi folks I have an x pro1 and x e1 but I still do the occasional wedding and more prom shoots plus the grandkids are coming thick and fast my dilemma is do I bite the bullet and buy an x t1 or would I be ok with an x e2, Watched loads of video's and reviews no help lol.
Now I can buy a 2nd hand x e2 and probably more glass for not much more than a new x t1.
Your thoughts please?
 
In my opinion, I find the XT1 compared to the XPro1 like night and day, in regards to focusing, EVF, EVF refresh along with being a lot quicker. To me using the 35mm f1.4 lens I find it's as quick as my old D7000.

I pressume you will be using the 35mm & 56mm lenses, if the 35mm is anything to go by I cant see it being a problem for weddings and I cant see the need for anything quicker. I bought my XT1 from Panamoz for £731.00.

Your best bet is try them out in local camera shop. I haven't tried the XE-2.
 
Thanks for the input tbh I think I am going to go with the xt1 I just need to find the bottle to click the buy button lol

Hi Mike, I've had an X-E1 and upgraded to an X-T1 and the difference is quite considerable I cannot comment on the X-Pro 1 as I've never used one.
The viewfinder is not far off using a full optical reflex camera.
The viewfinder refresh rate is far better than any other EVF I've tried including all of the Fuji X cameras.
Focus speed is a lot quicker than the X-E1 with any of the Fuji XF lenses and focus tracking is much better.
There's many more things that make the X-T1 a much more pleasing camera to use.

IMHO the X-T1 just feels "right" and is an awsome camera to use, and even better with the battery grip attached. If you can stretch to it then go for it. You will not be dissapointed.

Hope this helps.,

George.
