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.

I would be looking at one of those, but possibly not really equipped with a 40Mpx sensor on APS-C. An MF version though ..

The Q2 isn't easy to beat, very clever design choices e.g. long press wheel changes from EV comp to ISO, she has IBIS and works best when light and weather is dull, rain in a forest, moss on trees and you want to print large. No idea how they do that, maybe that 50Mpx senor (47.5 after cropping, which you don't have to do) or maybe the fine tuning of colours or the lens?

A large sensor could be interesting, otherwise an X-Pro3 plus lens isn't actually that large or heavy.

But 2.5k APS-C?

Dunno.
