It would be awesome if Fuji would start developing a Pro version of the X100 series with the following features

- 18mm f1.4 lens

- New high MP sensor rumoured for the X-H2

- X-Pro body ergonomics and build quality

- NP-W235 battery

- IBIS

- Priced around $2.5k

Would anybody else be interested in such camera? I’d take that over something like a Leica Q2 every time. It’d be the ultimate street/documentary camera.

Cool concept, but that would be a fair bit larger, heavier, and more expensive than the current body, which means an even more niche product, which means a smaller market (in an already shrinking market). No doubt some people would love it, but I'm not sure it makes any business sense for Fuji.

Personally, after shooting the Ricoh GR, Fuji X100, and Leica Q, I kept only the Ricoh because of just how tiny it is. Once you get to the size of the Q, or this theoretical X00 pro, then I'd definitely rather just have an ILC.
