  1. XT1 and XPro 1. Don't actually use the XPro1 much as I find it non responsive enough and the focusing is still slow for the work I do. I did enjoy it thou but also miss many pictures with it. Not as many as I have missed with the X100 when I had one, my first Fuji. The Xt1 is not bad when it comes to focus fast and accurately but is not enough. So I am waiting for the XPro2. Unfortunately Fuji Taiwan (where I live) is not very proactive when it comes to promote their product among us professional. So I am waiting to have a chance to text it properly first. This time I won't buy it without having the opportunity to test it for several days if I can. I have the 28mm, the 35mm F1.4, the 56mm 1.2 and the fantastic 50~140 f 2.8 and the 10~24mm f 4. I want to buy the teleconverter and the 16 f 1.4. All good lenses and now I need a body that respond fast and focuses even faster because I really wish I can do without my DSLR all together. Different cameras yes but I believe one day will be possible for me to use only mirrorless for my work. Right now it is still impossible. Yet I took many really nice pictures with my Fuji that could have not been taken with a DSLR (too big, intrusive and noisy (shutter noise wise I mean) I do dream of a Fuji like mirrorless camera full frame as responsive in everything as the DSLR........but I suppose this won't happen in the near future. Honestly I could do with APS C sensor if I had more pixels. Now with the X Pro 2 at 24 megapixel my prints could look better but there are already over 40 megapixels cameras out there so I won't say 24 megapixels...WOW!!!. I work for a magazine and designers crop images all the time (I hate it). I have read several enthusiastic reviews on the XPro2 but I really want to see myself what it does and doesn't first. Said all that I still love the Fuji X quality of images.......just want it faster, faster and faster.
  2. Hi Milandro, Thanks. actually my hunting problem was of a different nature. My 35 now hunts much less with new firmware i must say. Anyway, I solved my problem. I had the pre focus ON as suggested by Patrick. Yes it help to speed up focusing but in my opinion not necessary. Drains batteries really. Guess Exiled may have the same problem with his zoom. @Exiled...try to turn Pre Focus OFF see what happens.
  3. I have the same problem with my 35mm f1.4 Even in single focus the lens keep focusing. Annoying really and battery consuming. Anyone any idea as to solve this I much appreciate. All this happened after I updated with the new firmware, which is good but not the end of the world....let alone a new whole camera. Cheers
  4. Started with the X100, lovely camera but missed many pics...too slow. XPro1 then came along and I love it. Then XT1, the first was stolen in Paris, the second still with me and I do most of my assignments with that, yes I make my living taking photos. Got more lenses then I can actually use but they all with me all the time. The thing is, I am not using XPro1 much these days. However if the new XPro2 will be faster, more pixels and a even better sensor.....well nothing is better then a gorgeous rangefinder looking camera. Don't need to be smaller in my opinion. And if the XT2 comes at the right time when money is laying rotting in my bank account I guess i will get that too. The thing is Fuji will have to come up with something really new if they don't want to lose to Sony. Would it be possible to have a full frame XPro2 that can still use the old lenses in a crop mode? I am a photographer not an engineer so I would not know. I know full frame may be off the menu for the time being...but man! a XPro 2 full frame? That would be awesome
