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.
A6400 — Content Creation & Vlogging: The best value APS-C Sony you can buy — especially used. Real-time Eye AF at this price point was transformative when it launched and still makes it one of the most reliable autofocus systems in the lineup.
