Camera Menus
The X-Pro1 gets much-improved menus compared to the X100, with a more-modern tabbed design and rationalized layout. Most of the same options are available, but rearranged more sensibly between the Shooting and Setup menus. When the camera is set to Movie mode, the former is replaced by a minimalist Movie menu.
Shooting menu
The shooting menu plays host to the camera's photographic settings, arranged reasonably logically across 5 tabs. Many of the most-used of these options - ISO, image processing options, etc - are easily accessible via the Q menu.

L (100), H (12800) and H (25600) are unavailable and greyed-out when shooting raw. The various Auto settings specify the highest ISO that will be used in brackets, with ISO 200 always being the minimum (i.e. Auto (800) will use ISO 200 - 800) |
| Image size | L 3:2 L 16:9 L 1:1 M 3:2 M 16:9 M 1:1 S 3:2 S 16:9 3 1:1 |

ISO bracketing, film simulation bracketing and DR bracketing drive modes can override this setting and prevent the camera from recording RAW files. RAW is always 3:2 aspect ratio. |
| Dynamic Range | Auto DR100 100% DR200 200% DR400 400% |
DR200 provides one stop additional highlight range with a minimum ISO of 400; DR400 provides two stops additional highlight range with a minimum ISO of 800 |
| Film Simulation | Provia / Standard Velvia / Vivid Astia / Soft Pro Neg Hi Pro Neg Std Monochrome Monochrome + Yellow filter Monochrome + Red filter Monochrome + Green filter Sepia |

The same range of options is available for all 3 custom sets. You can save current ISO, DR and image processing settings into a Custom set, and modify each parameter from within this menu at any time. No other parameters are saved (e.g. button customization or file size/format). Custom sets 2 - 7 offer the same options as Custom 1. |

Once turned on, multiple exposure stays active until disabled again in the menu. |
| Disp. Custom Setting | OVF |
Allows configuration of the information that will be shown in the viewfinder in detailed display mode. The OVF and EVF/LCD displays can be independently configured; each has the same set of options. Compared to the X100, the X-Pro1 adds the ability to display or hide the focus distance scale separately for Auto and Manual focusing. |

Enables pre-flash for red-eye reduction |
| Save Org Image | On Off |
Retains original image when removing red-eye in JPEG processing. |
Movie Mode Shooting Menu
The Shooting Menu becomes much shorter when the drive mode is set to Movie, due to the X-Pro1's limited video options. One point worth knowing is that the Display Custom Setting option here is entirely independent of that for stills, i.e. you can choose to display different shooting information for each.

Set-up menu
The Set-up menu is pared-down relative to the X100's, with many of the options previously here rationalized into the shooting and playback menus. A number of the most-useful settings can be accessed from the external controls (such as Silent Mode and LCD brightness), meaning you won't need to delve in very often except to format your SD card or initiate sensor cleaning.

Playback menu
The X-Pro1's playback menu contains most of the same items as the X100's, but in a far more logical - and useful - order. Most importantly in-camera RAW conversion is now top of the list, which makes up for the loss of the RAW button, with other useful playback functions (protection, multi-frame erase etc) available off the first page. Facebook and YouTube addicts shouldn't be disappointed though, as 'Mark for upload to' tags can still be set.
