I would agree that I much preferred the tone curves of my dead X Pro1

XT1 was harsh in comparison

Things improved a bit with the 24 Mpx sensor but still behind the XP1

That said it is easy enough to adjust shooting setting to get results according to taste

In the fist post just use ETTR (by a 2/3 EV) and you will get very similar results with blowned highlight in the background and much smoother rendition in dark areas

With most JPEG engines nowadays there is a kinnd of highlight recovery obsession easily avoided in RAW (ETTR)
