Told you (both) so...
You're right Bobby - the XPro2 has a certain
je ne sais quoi in both output and handling that sets it apart. It was driven home to me by using mine alongside my X100T in Madeira. The results from both cameras are exceptional and at web sizes there is little to choose, but the results from the XPro2 are just a bit
more exceptional - there's more to see, and more to play with.
I know that you can get cameras with faster AF, bigger buffers, bigger sensors, but in the XPro2 Fuji has found a sweet spot. Bear in mind, too, that if Fuji keeps to its Kaisen approach, the camera that is in our hands now will get BETTER with age, like a fine wine. I have no doubt that when the X-T2 then the X200(?) make their appearances with the same sensor the game will be upped there too, but I cannot see myself being tempted by the T2 - the X200, maybe, but a bit like the Ricoh GR it's successor will have to be very,
very good indeed to make the jump worthwhile.
The performance and handling gulf between the X-Pro1 and 2 was huge in the end to the extent that it isn't even really viable as a backup (the X-E2/S is a better bet in that regard, smaller and cheaper too) and although I still have my '1, it will probably be the next thing to sell; at the moment I just have it set to "infrared" and that is a bit of an indulgence, let's be honest...
