    vince reacted to deva in EVF color accuracy   
    The EVF in the X-T1 is not exactly color accurate in the perfection sense. For example, in shadows it is a bit too green so in the shadow area purple is not right and green can be a bit too saturated. That said, on my X-T1, the overall tonality is accurate. I can judge the overall WB by the EVF and what I see in the EVF matches overall tonality to the LCD and the resulting image on my laptop screen. 
     
    The X-Pro2 EVF is not dependable for judging WB because it has this overall bluish cast. BTW, the X-Pro2 and X-T1 LCD's are pretty close when both cameras are set to auto WB. I have not compared on my laptop the same image shot with both cameras (same lens) using auto WB to see if they have some variation there in how they calculate WB.
     
     
    So I talked to Fuji today. They confirm that all X-Pro2's have the bluish cast in the EVF so there seems to be no point to swap cameras. At this time Fuji is calling this 'normal' behavior and there is no plan to address it in firmware (assuming that is possible). They have been receiving a fair number of phone calls about it. I told them I consider this an unacceptable flaw in a pro camera and not normal. If my X-T1 can be more accurate, than so can this one.
     
    I imagine if they receive enough calls, they will do something about it. So I encourage anyone who would like to see it improved to call Fuji and say so.
     
    I still have a bit over 3 weeks to decide to keep the camera or not.

    vince got a reaction from bffmike in XPRO-2 warming   
    I have an X-Pro2 and X100S. Compared to the X100S, the X-Pro2 gets much warmer, especially on the bottom plate and the screen. I was initially worried about this and acquired another new X-Pro2 for comparison. I ran an informal test by leaving both X-Pro2 units on for an hour with the screen running. Both X-Pro2s got similarly warm. They were not hot or overheating, but noticeably warm.
     
    I also did this test comparing aftermarket Wasabi batteries with the OEM and saw negligible difference.
     
    Another X-Pro2 user also told me his camera gets warm. So, the warming seems to be normal or at least common. To be fair, I don't notice it much while out shooting, but I usually have the leather half case on.
     
    Let me know if anyone here has more information to add. Hopefully this isn't a problem.

    vince reacted to Alf in XPRO 2 Case   
    Harpax the link u have is the case I'm referring to
    There will be 3rd party ones along soon I'm sure
    I have quite large hands so the case just gives me the extra little bit of grip I need
    Vince it's prob unlikely I'll get round to snapping all angles of a case the pics on the net are accurate
    As I've said yes u can get into battery but not into cards
    I would say it takes just a few seconds to remove and really isn't a prob
    I can't really see a 3rd party case with hole in side working so well
