[QUOTE="Blue439, post: 830784, member: 53455"] [B]Amsterdam, September 2017[/B] In September 2017, we spent a few days in Amsterdam. This was the last time I used my Fuji X–Pro 2. That trip finished to convince me that, in spite of all its many qualities, the Fuji gear was not quite up to speed with my Nikon kit, especially regarding the performance of the sensor, and particularly in terms of color fidelity, dynamic range and general image quality. However good it is, the crop sensor cannot, in my opinion, rival the full–frame one, even though from a user interface standpoint, the X–Pro 2, like its predecessor, was a pleasure to use with its retro looks and amazing hybrid viewfinder. The lenses were excellent, but a good camera is the combination of body and lenses, and the former wasn’t up to speed. I re–sold all my Fuji shortly after that trip. I just wish Nikon would launch a full-frame, retro-styled, Leica-like (or Nikon S-like!) 21st century rangefinder with a Z-mount maw...! I’d buy one or two right away! :p :love: Fujifilm X-Pro 2, Fuji XF 24mm, ƒ/1.4 R lens, handheld. [ATTACH type="full"]417046[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
