Hi all fellow X lovers,

I am very tempted to get a X-Pro 2. I currently own a X-T1 and X100T, and just sold my X-T10.

In your guys' opinion, which other camera should I sell to fund for a new X-Pro 2?

Prob the X-T1 since the X100T by itself is a fixed lens compact with its successor not coming anytime soon.

Upgrading the X-T1 also means new life for all your current X lenses
 

If you don't need a backup body then just sell the xt1
In fact if the x100t has no use, why not sell it too
 

Thanks for all the inputs so far. X100T has a higher chance of me bringing out due to the more compact nature compared to X-T1.

Seems like selling the X-T1 to fund for X-Pro 2 is the more natural progression. Just hope I won't miss the tilt-able screen and bigger EVF magnification. Haha..
 

One of the really good reason to get the X100T and X-Pro2 is the electronic rangefinder viewfinder unique to these 2 which combines the merits of both OVF and EVF but it's a function most don bother to try as most users use the EVF.

what lenses do u have currently ? The X-T2 though not coming really soon may be more apt seeing that u are currently using the X-T1.

EVF wise , the X-T2's will be even a league better than what we already have in the X-T1 hence if that matters a lot I'll say just hold on a bit and wait for X-T2.

My current lens line up include 18-55, 10-24, 35 f2 and 55-200.

Sorry, off topic. May I know, why did you sell your XT10? Any specific reason?

Initially thought X-T10 is light for carrying around but after using for some time, feel that it's too plasticky. Still prefer the feel of X-T1.

Okay, did you find any difference in image quality or performance as compared to XT 1.

In terms of image quality not really, but in terms of feel and handling, X-T1 feels much better.

Yes I agree, thanks for answering.

Actually if you like the x100t compactness, Xpro2 with the 35 f2 is pretty compact too although not as small as the x100t. Thus, if I were you I would sell the x100t. Xt1 evf is really good compared to xpro2. Like I mentioned, since we used it so often it becomes a norm, till we pick up an evf which is smaller than the xt1, then we realize how awesome the evf had been. Personally I sold the xt1 to fund the xpro2. The new sensor and rangefinder style are both good enough reason for me to forgo the xt1 evf. Hope I dont regret...:)

keep both x-t1 and x100T and get the x-pro 2 if you need another body. otherwise, sell the x-t1.
 

Keep X-T1 and wait X-T2 then you can decide X-pro2 or X-T2 =p
