The Fujifilm X-Pro1

The Fujifilm X-Pro1 has a 16 megapixel APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor. This has then been combined with the high-speed and top notch quality EXR Processor Pro image processor.

It has a dual-magnification hybrid viewfinder and a brand new fully electronic X lens mount. The dual-magnification is designed to help the camera cope with the different focal lengths of the interchangeable lens system of the X-Pro1. The LCD screen on the X-Pro1 offers a wider viewing angle than earlier editions and is less reflective for better viewing in bright conditions.
