I must say...

I know that numerous people seem disappointed with the build of the X-Pro1, but in the end it's the image that matters. I must say, looking at these, the IQ is just fantastic:

They seemed to have captured the same color dynamic that made the S5 Pro so absolutely wonderful. To my eye, it's got the same skin tones et al as the S5 only with higher resolution (and sharper). It looks like a fantastic "people" camera.

Can't say for the DR or anything else, but I'm impressed.

Unfortunately it's out of my budget. Well, actually not - it's out of my budget because I'm getting the more practical (for me) D800. That said I'm keeping my S5, so while I won't quite get the same output, at least I have that Fuji color available.

Maybe someday in the future (and lest I desire divorce, far in the future!)...
