I figured since I bought the camera through Vistek, I might as well post this review here. If you're planning on buying photo equipment, I do recommend Vistek. As for the camera... I've been using the X Pro-1 for a couple weeks with the 35 – it replaced a Nikon D80, many lenses and flashes, etc.

Fujifilm X-Pro1
"Stunning," "astounding" and "gorgeous" images are the Fujifilm X-Pro1's claim to fame in test after test. Even more than its retro rangefinder styling, its dazzling photos grab critics' attention. But it's flawed. Slow autofocus, disappointing video and some flimsy bits harm its rating in reviews.
Pros:
- Astounding image quality
- Retro rangefinder body and controls
- Compatible with high-grade lenses
Cons:
- Not the quickest to focus
- Subpar video
- Feels flimsy for the price

Fuji X-Pro1 Review
The X-Pro1 is half the price of a Canon 5D Mark III or Nikon D800 , so if you already have a 5D Mark II or D700 , you might want to step all the way up to the X-Pro1 for half the price of the 5D Mark III or D800, each of which are mostly the same as the older models, while there is nothing like the...

Fujifilm X-Pro1
The Fujifilm X-Pro1 ($1,199.95 body only) was the camera that launched the company's X series of interchangeable lens bodies. That makes it about two years old, which can be an eternity in the technology world.

- Great high ISO images
- X-Trans image sensor
- Hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder
- Sharp rear display
- Excellent control layout
- Sturdy build
- PC sync flash socket
- Continued firmware update support
Cons:
- A little slow to focus
- Lacks built-in flash
- Not a good choice for video
- No mic input

Pros:
- Looks like a Leica M3
- has good weight
- Fairly user friendly
Cons:
- Firmware difficult to install
- It has taken 2 months to get 3.20 to load
- Lens firmware will not load after 15 tries, so I can't use any of the Fuji X mount AF lenses
- I have tried every manual lens adaptor on the market and none will focus to infinity correctly.

I gave my XP1 above average ratings but honestly though i'd buy it again. It has its quirks with focusing interesting dial placement but Fuji was able to improve (steadily) on most of it's faults. Focusing is a lot faster (still hunt sometimes) even in similar contrast situation. Really though...

Dissapointed
This hand grip is well build but too small for large hands. Probably perfect if you have small hands. But I found the small grip part not a noticeable improvement. Plus a major design flaw is that it has to be removed to access the battery and media card compartment.

Fujifilm X-Pro1 16.3MP Digital Camera Body with 32GB Bundle
Overstock quickly shipped this camera to me after an order verification which is totally understandable! This camera did not come with a lens, however, I am using it with old lenses I've collected in the past such as m42's and M mount lenses.

Mirrorless camera
Most important feature for me is its stunning low light capabilities. Shoot into a dark closet on auto ISO and the closet is perfectly lit as if in daylight.Learning curve steep and there are significant differences from DSLR.Not smaller or lighter than some DSLRs.
Pros:
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- Good in Low Light
Cons:
- Awfully Expensive
- Short Battery Life
