Regarding the fact there is the xpro 3 and its bloody expensive..

The xpro3 isn't a significant improvement over the xpro2
And the Xpro2 just werks, like most cameras

It depends on the camera
Most are rated at 150k to 200k, so low is anything from 0 to 20 thousand shutter actuations usually

For what it is yeah. It's a fantastic camera and doesn't quite show it's age. I've owned mine since Jan 2017. It's a steal for what it goes for now, if you aren't sure you like fuji i would recommend trying out something from the x-e line.

Bought one in December last year for £740 brand new and a 35mm f/2 WR which I love. The important thing to take into account is that the OVF is designed for prime lenses, so you need to make sure you are happy with a single focal length for most of your shooting.

inb4 just use the EVF. If you are going to just use the EVF, buy an XT-whatever and save some cash.

Just looking for digital way now.

i read that x-e2 and xe3 share the same sensors that the Xpro2?
true?
so it's possible to get the same image quality than xpro2 ?

Yes.

even a xt1 or a xpro1 is worth buying in 2020 if you're going to use it.

X-e2 has a trans II sensor, 16 mpixels, so between xpro1 (trans 1) and x-pro2 (trans 3)

It's fine. 99% of the complaints are glasses wearers. In my experience it's not a deal breaker. It would be nice to have one the size of the xe2 but whatever.

That’s impressive. The official numbers for the X-T3 and X-T4 are 150k and 300k, respectively. These numbers are underestimates, but 900k is great.

is the xpro 1 worth getting? currently shooting with the x100 (mk1) and don't have any issues with image quality or whatever. just would like the ability to use other focal lengths, and i like the look of the xpro a bit more. but they're pretty similar?

I really don't understand this question. It was good enough for its stated purpose (stills camera for casuals) in 2012. Do you think that it's suddenly become a hunk of junk? Unless you've got very specific needs (wildlife/sports photographer) its capabilities will be probably in excess of your skill as a photographer.

No sonny, that's projection from yourself. You read that and threw an internal shit fit because I had insulted what you worked hard to get.

It's called being triggered, and you should work on not letting your triggered side show so badly.

Yeah, if you don't want weather sealing.
Personally, I use my XE2 in the rain too and I know it would kill the camera eventually but it hasn't failed on me yet.
Idk what you budget for lenses is, but yeah consider XE2 or X-E3 or even XT20 instead of Xpro 2 and get some native Fuji glass.

I’m considering one. Currently have a D700 and shoot film on an F2.

I’m now starting to get work offers and as much as I want the new XPro for daily snapshits, out of necessity I may need to upgrade to D800 instead.

I REALLY don't understand this sentiment either. Really seperates the gearfags from people who actually shoot. Just because a camera is 8 years old and there's newer tech doesn't mean it's suddenly shitty.

I made some 12x18 prints last week from some Nikon D70 images I shot 12 years ago. They look fucking rad. They don't magically suck just because 6mp is car backup camera tier now...
