The Fujifilm X-Pro1 is a work of art, and like any masterpiece there'll be some who hate it and others who get into heated bidding wars. If you're sensible and price-conscious, then by rights you should be waiting for the auctioneer to bring out the Olympus OM-D E-M5.
Read the full review →Conclusion: We like it
Fuji's high-end, retro-styled X-Pro1 isn't for everyone. For the same price, or less, you can get a top-rated — and more versatile — DSLR or mirrorless compact, such as the Sony α NEX-7. However, if you're prepared to pay Fuji's steep price, and you're looking for a camera with full manual controls, great, "film-like" image quality, and, yes, the styling of a classic rangefinder, the X-Pro1 is at least worthy of consideration. Just be prepared for some trade-offs, including slow autofocus performance, and a limited number of available lenses.
