Is this is a sensor issue or.....

You're welcome! Glad to hear I’m not the only one who’s been through this. 😊 If you liked how the X-H2S felt, it could definitely be a solid option — it’s fast, has great autofocus, and feels really responsive. Might be worth testing it a bit more to see if it matches your shooting style. -

Great insights here! Light direction really defines how much detail you can recover in shadows and highlights. Backlighting, especially, can easily push your sensor’s dynamic range to the limit. Using a bit of front fill light or a reflector definitely helps, but I’ve also found that combining bracketing with ETTR (Expose to the Right) gives much more flexibility in post. With ETTR, I slightly overexpose to capture as much shadow detail as possible, then pull highlights back during editing — though it’s a balancing act to avoid clipping. Graduated ND filters are also super useful when the sky is significantly brighter than the subject. Thanks for sharing the DR settings guide — understanding how your camera handles Dynamic Range Priority is crucial, especially when shooting high-contrast scenes. -
The X100 series has a leaf shutter, so the shutter must close, then open for the exposure, then close again for sensor readout, then open again for normal viewing. So some blackout/flicker as the shutter opens and closes?

Thank you so much! I was having a hard time figuring out what was going on. I really appreciate it!

If you look on the web page for this lens: https://www.voigtlaender.de/lenses/x-mount/23-mm-11-2-nokton/?lang=en the information (in the data communications section) implies the lens has limited compatibility with the X-Pro 2 but works fine with the X-H1. It sounds like the X-Pro 2 does not have a built-in lens profile for your lens. That profile tells the camera or the raw developing software how to correct various distortions, such as vignetting, barrel or pincushion errors in the image, etc. Just about every lens has these problems, the lens profile is used to change those problems back into good images. If you shoot using raw images, you may be able to find a lens profile for your raw development software and get better results. hth, p.s. Welcome to the forum.
