size comparison, X Pro1 and E-PL1

Post lots of photos!

Nice looking brute there!

 

Doesn't look too much larger than the EPL1. The XP1 is the same size as the M9, but much much lighter.

 

it must be the perspective....the Fuji barely looks bigger than the Wee Oly.

 

I'd like to see a landscape OOC jpeg of your Fuji X pro1 pitted against one taken by your E-PL1. I'd want to compare not just the image detail rendered, but the colors as well.

Also, could you post a 1080 landscape video from your Fuji X pro1 to YouTube? I havn't been able to find any X pro1 video samples on YouTube so I don't know how it compares to E-M5 video in terms of detail rendered and pleasing, accurate colors. Thanks.

 

Congrats on your new camera!

When I was in Japan I got to handle the X Pro 1. It was, like Ray said, BIG. Not huge like a 5D of course, but definitely not small either. I wonder if they could have squeezed a FF sensor in there but still manage to make small lenses...

Looking forward to some of those snazzy XP1 pics!

 

How's the AF? Is it faster than the E-PL1? I ask because fuji AF seems dismal, that and both x100 and x10 seem to have had major issues upon release.I hope your experience is better.

 

Leica did, so it's definately doable. The problem is that the sensor would need different micro lenses for the wides, the upcoming zooms would be humongous and it would cost potentially 2-300% more than it does now.

The only real trade off I can see is that for a given field of view you gain a stop to a stop and a half of DOF. And you can get that back with software.
