Good set . Exif says Xpro 2, nice to have that improved sensor I'd imagine Steve.

I am down the X Pro2, an X100, a DP2M, and Ricoh GR which I may be selling soon. I have to say so far the X Pro2 is the first digital camera I've ever owned I am completely happy with. I has all the controls I use on the outside of the camera which is a big thing for me. I'm not very technical so using menus can be a very frustrating experience. I sold off some things and a few of the Fuji lenses to buy it. That new 35 (or 50) F2 lens is very nice. F2 is good for me. I don't need tilting screens or video, ect. Honestly, I think simpler is better. I wish I did not have to sell the DP1M. I have had some huge vet bills this year and some problems health with my parents that have cost me a lot of money so......

I'm not really sure I am seeing that much difference between it and the sensor in the X100T which I think was their last sensor upgrade. Where the camera is a huge improvement for me over the original X Pro is functionality. It focuses faster and the ISO dial is on the outside which I really like. All the controls I use ISO, aperture and shutter speed are now on the camera instead of in it which makes me very happy. I do wish it has a real manual focus camera.

Firstly, like your images Steve. Secondly, congratulations on your xpro2 and 35mm/2. I have the xt1, almost the same and the 35mm/f2 and am very happy with it as well as the xt10. Everything is as you say, on the outside. All I need really. The xt10 has an Olympus manual 85mm/f2 on it and that combo is marvellous. Well one 18mm, one 35mm and one 85mm, all f2. No wonder I am happy eh?

Very nice indeed, Steve especially from a camera not normally associated with macro-style shots.
