I'm not sure if you're opposed to using a camera body with an OVF, but I really enjoy using the X-pro2 with manual lenses. You can set the OVF to be the correct field of view for the lens, and at the same time you can have the little EVF in the right hand corner be any three levels of magnification with peaking. I've found using that to be the quickest way to frame things up while walking around and still get mostly everything in focus. Of course if I really want to make sure I nail a shot or I'm in low light I'll switch to the evf, but It's a really nice option to have because it takes out having to press the magnification button all the time.
