Verdictwhich should you buy?
X-Pro1 — Film Photography Enthusiasts & Fujifilm X-Mount Collectors: The camera that started it all — slow, imperfect, and still uniquely loveable for the quality of images it produces.
X100F — Street, Travel & Everyday Photography: The X100F is the camera that made the X100 series legendary — 24MP X-Trans III, a hybrid viewfinder, and the best fixed 35mm compact lens available.
