I just checked eBay and pretty much any used Fuji body goes for at least 400 bucks. Since there is no significant money difference it will be a matter to find a nice minty body regardless of which model might be, there are no wrong options.

Get the one you think would be cool to have in addition to your next camera. For me it would be the X-Pro1 instead of the X-E1.

Agree. An X-pro1 would be a very nice addition. Also demanding pretty hefty prices right now. the only one on eBay is offered at $850 By the way, I just saw some third-party sellers offering X100Vs on Amazon for $2700. Can't believe people are willing to pay this money regardless of how nice it is.

Get a nice XE1 or X-T1 the AF believe it or not is absolutely fine for most uses

I remember when I had an X-100 T and apparently the F fixed the 'awful AF speeds' which I never actually noticed in reality and remember handing an F and thinking 'it's not that much different I'll keep my money...'

Hey ho

I'm seeing mint X-T1's with all original accessories and the bundled flash for £279 - £330 buy it now on ebay here in the UK.

That's a killer price for an amazing camera with a lush EVF even by today's standards 100% 0.77 mag!

The only downside to the X-T1 generation cameras (X-T1, X-E2, X100S/T, and X70) are waxy skin tones you cant turn off in JPGs at ISOs over 1600.
