The biggest selling point of the X-Pro2 and X-Pro3 is that they’re the only interchangeable-lens cameras with an OVF. Aside from these, only the fixed-lens X100 series cameras offer an OVF. An OVF is especially useful for shooting in low light with flash because it lets you compose and focus based on what you can see naturally, rather than relying on an EVF that can appear too dark in low-light settings.

Following retirement, after a lifetime of shooting with Nikon, Contax, Hasselblad and a 4x5 Wisner, I sold it all and bought my Fujifilm X-Pro2. I use 35mm, 23mm and 16mm lenses. I lost my interest in using telephoto lenses several years ago. At any rate, I absolutely love the X-Pro2. Easier to haul around than my previous kits. In fact, it is quite liberating.

OMG! I've been owning X-Pro2 for the past few years. And this is my most favourite camera I've ever had (after Canon, Sony of various kinds APS-C & Full Frame). This one is just phenomenal in terms of image quality, rendition, and picture size (24mpx is just that sweet spot I need). And I switched to JPGs only - because the colours are so wonderful that I don't really need RAW. I have it paired with Fujinon 35/1.4 - it has to be paired with this lens in order to reveal the full potential of its X-Trans sensors gen2. I shoot almost daily also with my medium format GFX50R and to be honest... I prefer the images from X-Pro2 - they are more organic, softer. Not sterile like on GFX system. It's true what "they say" - X-Trans sensors gen1&2 are the most beautiful in Fujifilm history.

It really is the best of the x-pros. And the best of the OVF Fuji’s, if 23mm isn’t your desert island focal length. When they discontinued it, I had to immediately buy a second one. (hard to justify at the time, but no regrets now) XF 35f2 on one XF 18f2 (no hood) on the other. OVF is perfect for these focal lengths, at the two magnifications available. I was inspired when I saw David Hurn sporting two x-pros (possibly x-pro1s possibly 2s) with these two fixed focal length attached to each. (on youtube doc film).

For events I often take it and the X-H1 - they have the same innards to a large extent, but occasionally the X-H1 IBIS comes in handy.

Someone suggested Auto-ISO, but being a "purist", that was a no-go. So I sold it and got a Canon R6... and I hated it. So off I went to KEH looking for a trade, and what do they have?... An X-Pro-2 special edition (mint) in grey with matching 23 f/2. Got it plus a 14 /f2.8 and 35 f/2, even swap. I've found peace with Auto ISO, and I'm loving the X-Pro-2 and my photography again.

I couldn’t agree more. Sold all my Fuji stuff a year ago. Went Leica all the way for personal work. I’ve used all X-Pros, all X-Ts (up to 5) and most X-Hs and GFXs. Yet, the X-Pro2 is the only Fuji I miss every now and then. Can’t believe how Fuji screwed up it’s release calendar and model line-up. Few tips for the X-Pro4 (should that ever come). Use the 26MP sensor and the bigger battery, IBIS would be nice. Drop all video stuff. Just a fixed LCD or the one of the X100V/VI. Also use that ISO/SS dial. Re-implement the dual mag OVF. The OVF and LCD in the X-Pro3 were such a mistake. Just a 3.69MP EVF is fine. Lose the D-Pad (X-E4-style) and get a better joy-stick. That’s it. As for lenses. For a one-lens kit, use the 35/f2. For a two-lens kit the 23/f2 and 50/f2 are great and a three lens kit is the 16/f2.8, the 35/f2 and the 50/f2. That’s all you need for a great street set.

Wow I love the colors. What film sim did you use on these? Or did you shoot raw?

16 and 24 megapixel sensors are IMHO the best that Fuji ever produced for X series cameras.

Those sensors are lovely yeah

How would you say it handles compared with the X100 series? Thanks for the video, Josh - nice one.
@frame-linesАй бұрын
I guess it's super similar, just lots more options with lenses. I would probably prefer an X100 if I didnt love changing lenses so much

X-Pro 2 is such a great camera. I've owned the 2 and the 3 multiple time at that point. Never had the chance to try the 40MP BSI CMOS sensor from the XT-5. Do you see a huge difference in files quality when compairing with the xpro ?
@frame-linesАй бұрын
yeah there is a noticeable jump in detail and the new film sims on the XT5 are great, I love nostalgic neg.

thanks for the effort and sharing. i am an appreciative subscriber. i use the X-T1 and X-T2 and i cannot see the logic in the Xpro2. ymmv. thumbs up.
@martingreenberg870Ай бұрын
The logic is Fuji develops a new sensor. Then they place the sensor in different bodies. You then get to select the body form that appeals to you. In addition, the XPRO and X100 bodies have the special EVF so many photographers love. It costs more to manufacture. Don’t like the EVF try another body style like the XE line.

Nice one - I have the same set up but with the 33mm 1.4... I've wanted to sell it but never do. When are the photowalks happening?
@frame-linesАй бұрын
ha that's a great lens - the photowalks are all publicized on the patreon / discord

I always wanted an x-pro2 since around 2018, but wanted to wait for the used prices to go down. Still waiting. 😂
@frame-linesАй бұрын
I think you might be waiting a while...
@martingreenberg870Ай бұрын
You will have to wait. The XPRO2 is a cult camera. The price may never come down to your price range. Either you accept that or you never pull the trigger. While you are awaiting the price drop or a bargain to fall into your hands you are missing out on the XPRO experience. Consider purchasing the XPRO at this price level. If you don’t like the XPRO performance or experience, sell it. There will be little to no loss in the price. It is so easy for me to spend other people’s money. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)

I bought my first FujiFilm camera last week and after some research finally decided on the X-Pro2.. Only got my first lens for it today so haven’t really gotten to try it properly yet.. Maybe tomorrow.. I have not gotten my phone to connect to the camera wifi yet.. Always get a notification saying “unable to connect”.. Any tips anyone? The phone is an iPhone 16 pro max… Anyway, cannot wait to start taking pictures with this beauty!

nice, I got XT-5, for me no need to buy another camera. Good camera tho

@simonrockstreamАй бұрын
It truly is a wonderful camera. I just hate that its getting so much hype and attention... these prices man. They also just keep getting harder and harder to find.
@martingreenberg870Ай бұрын
Maybe they are so hard to find because those that are drawn to this camera are reluctant to sell it. This also relates to its price. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)

X-Pro 2 is timeless, the X-Pro 3 is misunderstood, Fuji should come out with a camera with no LCD Screen like the Leica D.
