    tdGunter got a reaction from turboblitz in X-Pro 2 Firmware Request List   
    I'm pretty sure it's the frame lines that move to correct for the parallax error, while the focus point doesn't. That is the whole point of missing focus when shooting nearby objects.
     
    My no.1 request would be that when shooting RAW + JPEG (card 1 + card 2) it would be possible to link those files in-camera. If you delete one (RAW) image, the JPEG would automatically be deleted with it.

    Got it. The second box represents the focus frame at the OVF’s minimum focus distance – the closest the OVF can focus before it hits the macro range.
    Smart
     
    This is a must read indeed, when you still have questions about the OVF, parallax and focusing! ...

    In theory, yes. In practice ...

    No issues really. "Not hurried" as in having the time to take the shot, i.e. leisurely. I'm not a fast shooter when on the X system, although I can. While I love working through the OVF, I do find that the EVF translates errors I make more readily, i.e. wrong exposure, white balance...
     
    The parallax correction on the pro2 is definitely a step up from the pro1. I've had a few misses on the xf35 wide open trying to focus on the eyes of my niece. The keepers on the OVF is currently lower than the EVF. Having said that, I've only had the Pro2 for less than a month.
     
    Despite that, I love being able to use both the ovf and evf which is one of the biggest reason for my purchase.

    Sometimes I shoot through fences or window bars where I try to frame a subject in the spaces between them only to find the subject obscured by the bars because of parallax error. Guess I just have to train myself to go EVF in such situations. Regardless, I love that I can make that choice. However, when I use the EVF I feel like I'm watching surveillance video. With the OVF I feel like I'm part of the action which has a positive effect on my mindset while I'm photographing on the street.
