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.
A6000 — Entry-Level Mirrorless & Budget E-Mount: The Sony that started a generation of E-mount loyalty — 11fps, 24MP, and 179 phase-detect points in a compact body that remained excellent value for nearly a decade.
