I Think the X-Pro2 is overpriced and no advantage over X-T1 or X-T10

... and the streets are paved in gold in America.

What about the Fuji X-E2s.

Check out the specs. and that price for the value is un- beatable !

Sleeping giant !

Shipping in the USA !

Agreed. My 2-year old X-E2 will become a brand new X-E2s this week. What a deal!

I love Fuji!

I sold my M9 and 4 lenses (28mm f/2, 25mm/f2 'King of Bokeh, 50mm f/2, & 90mm f/2) and bought the Fuji X-Pro 1 with 3 lenses (18mm/f2, 35mm f/1.4, and 60mm f/2.4, 2 extra batteries, and the handgrip - all for the price of *one* of my Leica lenses.

The X-Pro 1 is a better camera than the Leica M9 in every way except manual focus, which I don't use on the Fuji, anyways; I just wish it had been around when I first invested $22,000.00 in Leica gear, heh.

makes it a bit of a bargain

I overlapped my M9 (with a mix of Leica, CV, and Zeiss lenses ranging from 12mm to 90mm) and the X-Pro1 for about a year. I ended up selling the M9 because, while I loved shooting with it, I found I could do more things in more situations with the Fuji than I could with the Leica. (Kept most of the M-mount lenses though...)

M9 renders best colours I have seen in last years in digital cam - organic, natural, just beautiful... Fuji colours are not that nice, they were very good in first Fuji cams but get worse and worse in each new X-Trans, they look unnatural and artifical now for me.

Fuji jpeg colours are fine by me - and many others so it seems judging by Fuji's popularity.

Unfortunately, when someone state "best colors" I have no idea what they are talking about. RAW? JPEG? In-camera or PP conversion? Printed or on screen? Monitor calibration? Just too many variables.

My decision to go from Leica to Fujifilm was based on the ability to capture the image in the first place -- in a manner that I was confident something decent would come out at the end.

However, one thing I will state is that the Leica DNG files were the easiest I have ever worked with in PhotoShop. Before the M9 I had an M8 and learned early on that shooting all DNG was the most practical thing to do. The letdown was shooting low light, high ISO.

He was being sarcastic...
