In January
2012, Fujifilm has launched X-Pro1 together with 3 prime lens (35mm
F1.4, 18mm F2 & 60mm F2.4). This news however didn’t effect much
other than hearing new model has been lunched by Fujifilm. The X100
model in that time was already 2 years in the market, i heard a lot of
good feedback about it but never comes in my mind to own it. The were
friends of mine having the X100 and they quite satisfied, the retro
design added this model more interesting. My first hands-on X100 was
during Saiful Nang Photography Seminar in Kota Kinabalu where we went to
Kiulu for shooting, he handed me the X100 and i had about 2-3 minutes
to handle it. Maybe it was that short time that X100 has failed to
impressed me other than its retro look.
Months after the launching of the X-Pro1,
I’m quite surprised that this model has actually impressed by many
professional photographer. I read about it in Zack Arias’s blog, Matt
Brandon’s Digital Trekkers blog, and tonnes to positive reviews all over
the internet. Zack Arias & Matt Brandon has mentioned that they has
spent less time with DSLR since their first love with the X-Pro1.
Besides of that, this X-virus has spreading all over Malaysia. Amri
Ginang, Yaman Ibrahim, Muslianshah Masrie are the earliest person that
“I know” has put their trust over this camera. With endless positive
feedback and more professional photographer has own it, it is the good
sign that this camera can be trusted. This has grown my own interest
over the Fujifilm X-Pro1.
You can continue read more about this camera “in depth” in Digital Photography Review (Fujifilm X-Pro1). They did all the mathematics for you.
