Re: Manual Focus and X-Pro
Using manual lenses on the X-Pro with the OVF is pathetic. If you have used a Leica M or any other real rangefinder camera, you will be in for a major disappointment. I have an X-Pro2 and an X-T2 and when I use the X-Pro2 with a manual lens, I always use the EVF, usually with peaking. Almost never use the OVF and only with AF lenses. The dual OVF/EVF on the X100 series and the X-Pro series was one of those great ideas that Fuji's designers completely screwed up. Besides owning an X-Pro1 and two X-Pro2s, I have owned every X100 model from the original through the X100F and almost never used the OVF on any of them.

The Sony ZV-E1 is a full frame camera targeting YouTubers. Chris and Jordan are Youtubers, what do they think?
Holy Stone produces dozens of low-cost drone models aimed at consumers. We look at the HS710 and HS175D to see if they stack up to other sub-250g offerings. Are these secretly great or more like toys?
Above $2500 cameras tend to become increasingly specialized, making it difficult to select a 'best' option. We case our eye over the options costing more than $2500 but less than $4000, to find the best all-rounder.
