Fujifilm's X-Pro2, like its predecessor, occupies a unique position in the market. It's one of the few interchangeable-lens digital rangefinders available with the major competition coming from the Leica M.

  Optical viewfinder not well-suited for telephoto lenses. Fixed LCD doesn't support touch input. Video limited to 1080p. Omits built-in flash. Expensive.

The X-Pro2 is not a perfect camera. There really is no perfect camera. But the X-Pro2 does come damn close to perfection. It’s not well suited to sports photography, but for portraits, street photography, and any other application calling for a small, unassuming camera, it excels.

  A photographer's camera, and the most fully realized camera in Fuji's X series. Phase-detection autofocus system has improved speed and AF-point resolution. New 24-megapixel sensor is on par with many full-frame chips.

  The weakest point is battery life. It sucks. Extra batteries are mandatory. The EVF is OK, but not not as vibrant as the XT-1.

The Fujifilm X-Pro2 has a look that will remind you of many other mirrorless Fujifilm cameras, as they offer a retro style with plenty of dials and buttons to control the camera's primary settings.

  Camera's price is pretty high for a mirrorless model, No built-in flash unit, Battery life could be better, Camera will take some practice to learn to use all of the dials and buttons efficiently; no mode dial is used, EV dial hangs over back edge of camera, meaning you might bump it out of place...

The X-Pro2 is a 24MP high-end X-mount camera whose appeal is inextricably linked to its innovative optical/electronic hybrid viewfinder. It offers excellent image quality and some of the best out-of-camera JPEGs on the market, and comes in a well built, elegant body with plenty of direct control.

Just like the Fujifilm X-Pro1, which was introduced in 2012, the new Fujifilm X-Pro2 mirrorless camera is based on an APS-C sensor, but it uses a completely new version of the “X-Trans CMOS” sensor and now offers 24 megapixels instead of 16MP.

The Fuji X-Pro2 introduces a new 24 MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS III sensor that shows exceptional image-quality. Sharpness, dynamic-range, metering and colors are all very good. Noise levels are extremely low until medium sensitivities where they still remain quite low.

It’s been four long years since the original X-Pro1 was introduced, triggering a tsunami of rangefinder influence in the world of digital photography that’s eroded the core of the prosumer DSLR market ever since.

Love the hybrid viewfinder. The camera is a joy to use for street photography. I upgraded from an X100s for the higher Megapixels, wifi and ability to throw on a long lens when I want. Still I mostly shoot with the 23mm weather sealed lens which is the perfect combo.

Using the xpro2 over the last 2 months I've learned a few things about it: 1. WR - It was important that I could take this camera anywhere with any weather. It very much is weather resistant. I have taken through and close to large waterfalls that mist enough water to soak your shirt in minutes.

Piece of art camera

First the unimportant: The camera is beautiful. Now the important stuff. In using this camera it seems like there was something in-between this an the Pro 1 that never came out. While I still love my Pro 1 this is physically similar but inside totally different; in a good way.

The improvements over the xPro1 are amazing.The dual card slots ,weather sealing, fast focusing just to name a few, will keep the pro photographer very happy.

If you have any doubts about this camera, don't !!! I can name many pro's but I will mention just three Awesome JPE's strait from camera, very good auto focus ( face detection is just awesome ), hybrid view finder is just to good.

The X-pro2 is a great camera with tons of settings, but if you just want to shot, just frame and push the button. Delivers great images in JPG with film simulations.

The xPro 2 is my new go-to camera for editorial and street photography. Build quality is excellent and the thumb control to move the focus point is much appreciated. Very responsive focusing & shutter release.

I am retired professional photographer. This is my second Fuji body purchase and I love them both. I wanted a smaller body but still with professional capabilities. The X Pro 2 delivers. The handling, feel, and build quality of the X Pro 2 is top notch. I love the optical viewfinder.

I think this may be the best camera I have ever used! I absolutely love this camera! I have always been a RAW shooter. The JPEGS that this camera produces has me thinking twice about that. I still shoot with a RAW backup but as long as I nail exposure in camera I use the JPEGS.
