The editors didn't like
The high-end price tag

Controls and handling can sometimes be strange (clickable thumbwheel with practically no uses
No lock on exposure correction dial)
Autofocus is inconsistent
Especially in low light
Low battery life
No battery guide (to help you get it in the right way round)
The priciest Compact System Camera (CSC) out there

Picture quality is lovely with jpegs having a distinctly film/analogue look. Dynamic range is excellent. The lenses (18, 35 and 60mm) are pin sharp with outstanding resolution. All the controls are smooth and luxurious.
The camera is not as responsive as a DSLR and the 60mm lens is slow to focus and hunts around, even in situations with decent contrast. There is no dioptre adjustment for the viewfinder which meant that we — spectacle wearer — couldn't use it. The user ma
This is possibly the most mouth-wateringly beautiful camera on the market, comparable only with Fuji's other X models and the Olympus Pens. Its price puts it up against more versatile DSLRs like the Nikon D7000, Canon 7D and Sony alpha77. On the other han...
Abstract: Fujifilm's X-Pro 1 was announced at CES in January, just over a year after the first 'X-series' camera, the X100 was unveiled at Photokina 2010. At a launch event in Sydney, officials from Fujifilm declared development of the X-Pro 1 had started three yea...
Filmlike images, Good contrast, Smooth quality defocused areas, Hybrid viewfinder
Centrelocked continuous autofocus, Manual focus tricky with EVF
While it has a few flaws - specifically the speed of its AF system - we think that most serious photographers will find the Fuji X-Pro1 a joy to use. Low sensitivity images impress straight from the camera, having plenty of detail, pleasant colours and be...

Abstract: Fujifilm X Pro 1 Camera ReviewI was lucky enough to snag a cheap deal on overseas travel to Thailand and used the savings to splash out on a new camera – namely, the new mirror-less Fujifilm X Pro 1. This camera builds upon the very impressive market insp...

If you have the money—and its a lot of money—yes, buy it. It isnt just style without substance here. Its not a point-and-shoot. It is a camera that might make you work a bit, but it will reward you with great pictures (and jealousy from your photog fri...
Abstract: Fujifilm's most ambitious camera ever has retro appeal in abundance, but it's one frustrating step from perfection. Whereas the gorgeous but non-lens-swapping Fujifilm X100 had the silvery look of a 1950s Leica, the lens-enabled X-Pro1 is a little more '7...
New sensor design delivers very sharp images even at base apertures, True Rangefinder-like experience, Good selection of prime lenses that take good advantage of the sensor
Relatively slow AF, Changing from photo to video mode a little cumbersome, Too expensive, especially given the competition in the sub 50K range
Rs. 1,04,999. That's how much the X-Pro1 costs, without a lens. Let that sink in for a bit. Clearly this isn't a mirrorless meant for the average user, given not only its price, but its design as well. This isn't meant to match DSLRs that cost as much, bu...
Retro classic design; good selection of fast prime lenses; superior low-light performance at high ISOs; excellent image quality; pleasing color rendition.
Slightly sluggish AF performance; below average battery life; lack of dedicated video recording button.
However, its slower-than-average autofocus performance and unimpressive battery life are notable shortcomings. The X-Pro1 will wow you with its excellent image performance and low-light capabilities. ...
