He works very closely with Fuji and is a professional fanboy. That doesn't retract much from his views though. He's a great photographer who knows how to get the best out of his gear.Have a look here. He claims he has been involved into the design process somewhat.
Jorgen I hear you - have some camera ban like you as well .....He works very closely with Fuji and is a professional fanboy. That doesn't retract much from his views though. He's a great photographer who know hoiw to getthe best out of his gear.
I browsed through it, and will read ity again tonight. With all the in-camera processing options of this camera, I'm tempted to say that this is finally a digital camera that I could live with withouth having access to a computer other than for storage and some "heavier" editing work. I have just extended my "new camera ban" another 6-12 months, but if I hadn't, I would have sent in my order right away. This is my kind of camera.
Exactly!Add some of the small primes (F2) and you are good to go.
Looking at her photos, that seems to be the only lens anybody will ever need. I almost feel a bit embarassed that I have so manyAnother glowing review from Charlene Winfred who uses X-Pro cameras since 7 years and also still uses the ancient 1.4/35 on the X-Pro3

I owned that 1.4/35 once - a stellar lens but was far too slow for what I wanted to shoot when mounted on my X-Pro1 back then (my little daughter moving and jumping erratically around). This is the reason I sold all.Looking at her photos, that seems to be the only lens anybody will ever need. I almost feel a bit embarassed that I have so many
Thank yoiu for the link.
Here's another fine photographer, Mindy Tan, getting the most out of the X-Pro3:

ultimately the last 2 years has reaffirmed to me that no camera is going to have it all so write down you list of what you can and can’t compromise on then pick the least emotional option that checks the most boxes. I had to do this myself a couple of months ago.I am still undecided if I really want this camera so badly that I will get one though ....
Thanks for posting this. It's a beautiful video and they are both great artists. I do however think that both the video and the photos could have been taken with any high quality camera these days, although Fuji makes things a bit easier with their excellent in-camera colour processing. But this is after all marketing.And this is the video from Jonas Rask and Palle Schulz they made about the X-Pro3

Makes me want to have it again
I am thinking very similar! This wonderful X-Pro3 seems to be the only one left on today's market, although IMO IQ wise it is definitely much better than any m43 solution and also the AF is hugely improved, as it is the same as in the X-T3 and this AF is just out of this world.Thanks for posting this.

However, and I keep coming back to this, the X-Pro3 is designed to be used exactly as I use my current cameras, while being a better quality option with some problems solved. It's not for anyone, which Fuji has stated, and for those who don't like it, there's a simple solution: Don't buy it.
I do wish however that those who don't like it would be more willing to appreciate the fact that Fuji is actually willing to make this kind of niche product. It's not the only one of course. The GFX 50 R and the X100 Series are also moulded around that philosophy too. With the Pen F and GX8 gone without replacements, there aren't many "rangefinder style" cameras under $2,000 left, particularly not if a viewfinder is wanted or needed.
