Fujifilm X-Pro1


Fujifilm's first entry into the interchangable lens camera (ILC) category is a stunner, a gorgeous slab of aluminum, synthetic leather, and precision-milled nobs and dials that manages to be featherlight, thanks to its magnesium build. The price is also a little stunning‹estimated to start at $1600 for the body alone‹but the X-Pro1 is beautiful inside, too, with a new color filter array helps it meet, and sometimes exceed, the image quality of full-frame SLR sensors. The camera and three lenses will be out next month, with nine more planned over the next two years, as well as a mount for Leica lenses planned for later this year.
