Succinct, informative (and informed), entertaining...Ken you've quickly become one of my favourite camera review channels.
Thanks Andrew!
I'm glad you have entered the YT world. I've been reading your reviews for over 15 years (text only, obviously) and there are other viable resources out there on YT (Fro, Tony, Angry Photographer, etc.) but you're surprisingly adept in the YT area. Good for you. Look forward to your future reviews!
Thanks! I’m just learning, my kinky videos will continue to get better and hit harder.
same here! ive been visiting kenrockwell.com for about 9 years. it's great to see him on youtube.
I thought my eyes tricked me but WOW, glad you are here
THank YOU for watching!
I just recently bought a new X-Pro3 and I totally LOVE it with the throw back to my film days!
Fun. Thanks!
Thanks for the transparent review - the camera is indeed a people camera, beautifully made and complete indulgence. No flash (in modern times), slightly ridiculous drop down screen, large, difficult to navigate options, this camera is aimed at 'Fujifilm' eccentrics who love kit for the sake of it as much as taking images. Your comment about Canon and Nikon for landscape and Fuji for people was spot on. Don't know about Sony for sport. Amazing this camera was built and I think it's great. Glad to see you online.
Thanks! Yes, its a nutty camera for nuts, and thank Fuji for having the guts to go out on a limb with something like this.
ISO 160 is the lowest native ISO for the sensor; that's why you don't see 80 or 100 on the ISO dial. It's not recommended for best results. (Sorry if this has been pointed out already.)
ISO 80 is cleaner and sharper with more highlight contrast, but amateurs might blow out the highlights and get more blur. Still, give me the option on the dial, Epic FAIL. Thanks!
@@KenRockwellTV I only have the X-T3, but I do not think the sensor range on the X-Pro 3 is different. According to the X-T3 specifications at p. 296 of the manual, the standard ISO for the sensor is 160-12,800; the lower "extended" range is down to 80 and up to 51,200. Of course you are free to shoot wherever you want but the dial (not the only way to change the ISO, of course) is limited to the normal range. If the X-Pro 3 has a different sensor range, then I stand corrected. Enjoy.
160 is the native base for fuji's minimum 100% dynamic range. From fuji's press material, when you expose an image at 100% dynamic range, the shadows will be captured at 160 ISO, however the brightest highlight will be processed at half that value. What the reviewer is saying is that at iso 80, the processor will now only apply -50% gain to the noise signal ratio, so therefore you will get better highlight contrast because the processor is not processing the brightest highlight at half the value of the images shadow detail. In real life use, I've used the X-t2 as my everyday camera. On bright, overcast days I typically shoot at iso 800 at 400% dynamic range. Even though the iso is relatively high for a bright day, upon importing my images, the softbox heavy overcast effect on the day still has more detail in highlights than when I shoot at base iso 200, and the greatest contrast edge to edge is when I set low iso of 100 where the camera will now apply a -50% gain . Which would explain why the reviewer is seeing a more contrast and slightly improved cleanliness, as the gain to signal noise ratio is at it absolute lowest, but also where one would need to exercise some savy to not blow out your highlights or overly crush your shadows. Fuji doesn't explain it very well,..but in fairness either does any other camera maker. Sony claims 15 stops of dynamic range, but in reality is more around 8, with 15 only being possible under very controlled studio environments. Hope this helps.
I remember reading almost all of your amazing lens reviews on your basically designed website. That's when I started photography way back. I just knew at random you have a YT channel. So nice to have you on this platform also. I subscribed of course
Thank you!
The Master Speaks and I listen !!! Mr. Rockwell I've been a fan of your written (NIKON) camera gear reviews for years. Glad to see you posting videos on RUclips.
Thanks Rich!
Hey dude. You’re the reason I bought a Nikon D40 way back when. You were right about 6mp being enough (it still is lol). I have you to thank for many photo memories with that fun kit!
Yip, I still have great 20 x 30” prints from my d40. Another prints 40x60” and they look great. It’s all about getting it shot and in focus!!
@@KenRockwellTV yup. I wish those massive pixels were still available
on an apsc sensor but hey, marketing, I mean technology marches on right??
Higher resolution is always better. Noise is the same and usually less as time goes on. Thanks!
I love that Fuji still makes cameras like they used to. I just picked up a x-t1 and I struggle to tell it apart from my film SLRs. I'm going to build my lens collection and then I think I will pick up a range finder styled x mount camera like this.
Thanks!
Thank you for the fantastic work you've done all these years on your website and now , here. Cheers!
Thank YOU!
@@KenRockwellTV Ken - forgot to ask: do you find the Velvia film simulation is good enough to get the nice color saturation you are after?
NO. It’s awful. See www.kenrockwell.com/fuji/x100f.htm#filmsimulation
If I want saturation, i shoot Canon or Nikon, never Fuji. Fuji only for people pictures.
@@KenRockwellTV OK - Thanks again!
Ken soldiers on! You were my guiding light when I got my first DSLR 15 years ago. Now there are 'specialists' dime a dozen but at that time nobody knew anything. I miss your palm tree and the weather station...you need to include them on all your videos for the old times!
Hmm, I try to make better pictures for video! Those subjects are just test standards for lenses rather than cameras, Thanks!
Hi Ken, you're the reason I bought my first Nikon D40 and had a blast using it! I also happen to be a Fuji xpro3 user and agree with your analysis 100%. I think the one thing that needs to be spoken aloud is that this camera genuinely makes you re-adapt to shooting from the basics. I enjoy the moment with this camera as I'm more aware of everything that's happening around me. This is not the case when I use my Sony A7RIV for serious event. Love the Fujifilm xpro3 and your review of it.
I can believe Fujifilm put a real cheap light weight plastic door on the USB. It's the worst on their most expensive camera, xpro3. Much cheaper fuji models have a much better implementation.
Glad to see you on RUclips.
Thank you!!!!!!!
I’ve learnt more about cameras from listening to Ken Rockwell than I have from anyone else. I especially appreciate it when you tell us where the cameras are manufactured. That’s very important to me. I try to avoid cameras made in communist countries. I mean crikey, don’t they make enough products in China already without making our cameras too? Whilst I’m here, Ken, please, I have a quick question. The LCD screen on the back of the Fujifilm X100V - is it covered by glass or is it plastic? With it being a touchscreen I’d be surprised if it was plastic but I’m almost certain that it might be. I try to avoid touch controls anyway. Thank you for all the info you put out there, and I’ll continue to enjoy listening to your videos and reading your stuff.
I forget; they all seem like plastic to me but I didn’t check. Thanks!
Thanks! Very useful information here that will help me make up my mind on getting the X Pro 3. Much appreciated!
I’d only get one for people shots. Otherwise I prefer Canon or maybe Nikon.
@@KenRockwellTV Ken, I am already a long time Canon user. I have a Canon 5DMKIII and two Canon 5D MK IIs and a whole range of lenses and I will never part with those but it's time for a change and I'm very interested in street photography and carrying those big Canons would deter me from getting close enough to shoot what I want. The change should be interesting! Thanks for all your advice! : )
XPRO3 is a bit of a pig; other fujis are smaller and better. Look at the X100 series, which are the best from Fuji. Of course we all want different things.
The gospel according to Rockwell. Glad you are here!
THANKS Bill!
Having used this for a few weeks changing from X-T30, one problem I have is that the exposure compensation dial often get moved when I take it out of the bag or sometimes when hanging across my body. I wish it could be locked. Otherwise love it.
Thanks!
Ol Kenny loves his palm trees
Yes I do! Thanks!
Whoaaa the legendary kenrockwell.
Ive read everything on your web since 2007. Thanks for all the Learnings
Thank you for reading all these years!
Ah I was waiting for this video!! Awesome!
Thank you!!!!! See also my users guide www.kenrockwell.com/fuji/x-pro3.htm#usage
Very nice Ken. Big fan for years, recent youtube subscriber, i have always trusted you with your objectivity. Some other reviewers give second hand info whats missing and whats there. I didnt even know about the ISO 80-100 and higher ISO missing on the dial.
Thanks!! Yeah, missing ISOs have always been a problem in Fuji. Even more maddening is that they used to include H and L settings - but you had to use the me yes to select which of several available H or L ISOs would correspond to that!
Ken on you tube!!! Unbelievable. Instant subscribe.
THANK YOU!!!!
OMG! Ken is here! I'm in. I bet you're looking forward to the X100V, i am. Please do your 7 levels of photographer.
Hi! Not looking forward an X100V because I'll have to buy it, and I LOVE the Z100F and am perfectly happy with it. I can't think of anything missing in the X100F.
Yes, that's what I also tell everybody; that X100F is so good it doesn't need an update. I think that people asking for a X100V don't really own a X100F...
Nice concise review as always. Love your channel.
Thanks! I do it all for you guys. You’re the best!
Cool ting about the dials is they let you select the most used values. Then when you need the less used values just set it to “c” which is for command, then you have all the values not shown on the dial. For instance if the shutter dials lowest speed is 1 second but I want 4 seconds then the shutter dial should be set to “c” then use the thumb wheel ( just a like Nikon/Canon) to access the lower speed. This ISO dial should be used the same for the lower or higher iso values
Yip; I'd just skip all the third stops in the middle of the range we don't need and use the saved space to add the upper and lower settings we do need. THANKS!
Any photos to show your absolute professionalism?
My two most recent clients were a billboard for McDonald’s and a $4,000 one-image sale to Merck Pharmaceuticals. Thanks!
It's not included but if you need a flash Fuji made a really nice little flash specifically for the X-Pro line. The EF-X20 is very well made, metal, fits, looks and works great on either and X100 or X-Pro. For around $150+ if you like to use flash I highly recommend it. The EF-X8 that comes with the H1 and T3 is amazingly powerful but the X-Pro is not pinned out on the hot shoe to power it.
You got it! I'm too cheap to pay extra for a flash when my X100F just has one. I'm so cheap. Thanks!
Ken Rockwell Aren’t we the touchy boy. Do you know of any other pro level camera made by anyone with a built in flash? Give me a break. Cheap? Your girlfriend would know better than I on that. How about sensitive and peevish.
“Crappy-flap-material”...ha! Thanks for the laugh on top of the amazing content, Ken.
Just saying it like is is. Thanks!
Lord Rockwell has spoken!
Thanks! Lord of? You are too kind.
Lord of the camera review. You are internet famous good sir! Thank you for blessing me with your attention. #blessed
Brilliant review. But as u said their omission of a 100 on the dial seems really ridiculous, even in England I often - in the summer months ! - routinely set it to 100. Still I guess u can still set it electronically, but that kinda makes the mechanical dial redundant. Anyway, looks a very lovely and beautifully made piece of kit. Thnx Mr Rockwell
Agreed. Nicely made but not as well thought out in the first place. I prefer Canon cameras. Thanks!
good of you to make this channel, Ive been a reader of your site for about 15 years! Like that Fuji has the iso dial on this. My old xe2 didn't have an iso dial. Relly hope they include an iso dial on all future cameras (next x100, xe, and the next GFX R). I like the form better than the XT's but I need the iso dial.
Thanks, but Fuji doesn't include all the ISOs on the dial so I don't find it helpful. THANKS!
Another great review thanks ken
Thanks for the compliment!
The xpro 3 is a great upgrade from an a6000. Better interface, same viewfinder placement, weather resistant, and the screen can be used from the waste just like the a6000.
Thanks!!
really glad to found you here, i read your page since canon 30D 5D era :))) internet was not very good that time in Myanmar , so i printed what i like to read from your website and filed it in folder that i still have it somewhere.
Cool! Wonder how those old printouts look. Hope I didn't suck all of your yellow ink! Thanks!
Ken Rockwell its was in black and white 😁 thanks for the reply. you really did helped me deeply understand my lens and gears . i still read your reviews before i acquires new gears . big thanks from Myanmar and Merry Christmas Mr. Rockwell
Very nice but the sensor is vulnerable when the lens is off. These cameras need a protective shutter or cap which has to be closed before the lens can be removed. Otherwise it would be nearly perfect. I have an X100 but the lens is fixed and the buttons are fiddly and easily pressed by accident.
Try the EOS-R, who’s shutter closes with the camera off.
This is a street camera. Go to a bar or to a busy city and shoot people at close range with a wider lens. It’s not a nature camera, just like a Leica m6 wasn’t intended as a landscape camera.
If you want to get pictures like Eliot Porter, use sheet film, or a Nikon d850.
This is meant to be a David Alan Harvey camera, or a William Albert Allard camera.
If you want photos like Elliot Porter, you have to be Elliot Porter. Regardless of the camera, every artist ultimately makes the same picture regardless of the gear he's handed. It's the artist, not the camera. For "street" use, the iPhone is by far the best camera today. See my review at www.kenrockwell.com/apple/iphone-12-pro-max.htm Thanks!
@@KenRockwellTV just saw this.
I agree that the best device you can use for street is an iPhone because everyone is used to seeing it, no one cares .
160 is the base iso, going lower than that is basically pointless, which is why it's not on the iso dial. Same with going above 12800, there's essentially no reason you'd want to do that because it's just adding digital gain that you could add in Lightroom in post.
See www.kenrockwell.com/fuji/x-pro3.htm#highisos for exactly what happens. Thanks!
Wow didn’t know the legendary Ken Rockwell was on RUclips. When I started doing digital photography as a hobby some 10 years ago and started with a Nikon DSLR, it was your site that provided me with wealth of early knowledge that I sorely needed. Thank you for those days. I’ll always remember you for your distinct, standardized reviews and mentions of your growing family.
Thanks! I LOVE you guys for reading my stuff!
the crappyflaps are made entirely of crappyflap material, hahaha. Thanks for the review Mr Rockwell! I have always shot film but this seems like a good camera for my foray into the digital world
Thanks, but not really. I wound the get a digital camera just because it fealt like a 35mm Camera felt in the 1960s. I’d go iPhone or canon for digital.
If you are a 'seasoned professional' who shoots at waist level (for say...Architecture with the excellent XF10-24/4) the flip LCD comes in very handy.
I rarely shoot at waist level. Thanks!
I think the lack of PC lens options for Fuji means ‘seasoned professionals ‘ are not using Fuji x cameras for architecture
I've been doing so for nearly a decade now with pretty good success. (I've been professional photographer since 1985, but Real Estate/Architecture only since 2010...more grizzled than seasoned probably! LOL)
The 10-24 (or 8-16) is wonderfully rectilinear and if you manage your levels and juxtaposition to close up objects, Lightroom's Upright module offers results that were previously only a workable option with tilt and shift of good view camera or the really high end PC lenses.
Michael Eric Berube Agreed Lightroom et al makes it possible, but I’d be curious how many pros are happy to post-compose in software for critical applications. To me it doesn’t make sense - I’m not a pro but as an architect I’ve commissioned a few photographers over the years
Since when did you have a youtube channel 🤔
I think it was 2010. Only past few weeks bothered putting anything good up. Thanks!
I'll add my welcome to the others Ken.
Would be interesting to have you present information about any advantages attributed to FF cameras vs. this camera.
Thank you Doctor!
Doesn’t matter, Fuji makes no full frame. More differences between brands than just the minor difference in sensor size.
I've had quite a few Fuji cameras. Love them. Had a couple X100's and a Pro2. I'm one of the few that use the OVF. I'm a little disappointed they didn't include the two magnification on the OVF in the Pro3.. My 50mm f2 gets a pretty small virtually unusable box.
Another issue I hope will be corrected in a firmware update is that the framing lines do NOT go back to a neutral infinity position when the shutter button is released. ALL other hybrid cameras Fuji has made snap back to neutral. On the Pro3 if you close focus the parallax just sits there even when you turn the camera off and back on. In order to get the frame line and focus box back you have to hit the shutter button first. THAT'S NUTS. I hope it was an oversight and they plan to fix this so if you have any pull, please write them. I've already done my part. Anyone else out there that uses the OVF contact Fuji. They only way they will fix it is if they get complaints.
I'm told Fuji is very responsive to everyone's inputs. Good luck!
Happy to see you Ken ! you have been helping me with your reviews. Thank's a lot for all your work. J.M.C. from France.
Merci bien JMC! Joyeux Noël!!!
What would you recommend as a good travel camera? I'm looking between the A7C and the Fuji XT-4, XT-30, and XPro-3.
iPhone 12 Pro Max www.kenrockwell.com/apple/iphone-12-pro-max.htm or I way prefer the Canon RP or the Nikon Z50 over Sony or Fuji.
@@KenRockwellTV I'm hopefully getting the iPhone 12 Pro Max soon! Can't wait to see what it can do because from your page, it looks amazing
Ken, you have me cracking up every time you say "thumb nubbin". It's a joystick, man. A joystick. LOL
Mine is a nubbin. Didn’t know they also did optional joysticks. Thanks!
@@KenRockwellTV point well made. 🤣🤣🤣
At 0:56 for waist level or low angle shooting. Its terribly important.
If that’s what you do. I just look at the screen flat. Thanks!
I think they’ll lose a fair bit of custom by not enabling the main lcd to be set in the camera (like most cameras), whilst not essential I’m sure they could have gone that extra mile and added it
Nah, this is a camera for full time career pros who have no need for the rear LCD. Thanks!
Hahaha! Ken Rockwell, I love the irony.
I personally almost never use the LCD of any camera, so I really don’t care which way it’s facing. On the other hand the finder downgrade from the XP2 bothers me a lot. I‘d really like to have some of the improvements they made, but the finder seems to be a steep price to pay. I briefly looked at the M10 as an alternative for its finder and better colour, but the camera is so much less capable overall that it makes even less sense. I‘ll stick to my film Leica for personal use, but my workhorse XP2‘s both quickly approach the quarter million mark and start to feel worn. I‘m now torn between getting two new XP2’s, two XP3‘s or one of each... aye, I’m exactly your nightmare nutter who shoots these weird cameras!
Hey, I’m crazy too - I just prefer the leaf shutter for 1/2,000 flash sync in my X100 series. Thanks!
Ken Rockwell Yes, the leaf shutter might be an advantage every now and then, but I‘m not talented enough to create a successful product with just one perspective, let alone 23mm.
do you need to use the 1.5 ratio when buying a lens on fuji?
like buying a 35mm to get 50mm?
The crop factor applies. See www.kenrockwell.com/tech/crop-factor.htm
Fredo Of course, it is a crop sensor camera 🙂
@@JoeLopez i was hoping fuji fix the number taking the ratio in consideration.
Why dont they just write the converted number directly for lens for apc cam? I never undestood why no company writes the equivalent for apc on their boxes.
Fredo It is not a Fujifilm thing, it’s a crop sensor thing and it’s just math.
@@JoeLopez yes i know, i have been dealing with that for a while with my sony a6500, A friend told me wrongly that fuji was making the conversion directly, as writting the cropped value instead of real value on the lens. directly writting the equivalency
For seasoned masters or not it’s Fuji telling you how to do photography instead of thinking seasoned masters use flip out screens other ways than what is suggested in this video.
Winners never look behind them. No need for a screen after the shutter’s pressed. Ask every LEICAMAN www.kenrockwell.com/leica/leica-man.htm
Hmm ... this looks like a film camera... minus the 7 buttons and the screen
Yip!
loved the review! out of curiosity are you planning to do any film camera reviews as well?😁
Maybe, but I'll probably never get the time. Thank!
@@KenRockwellTV The KR challenge is to shoot a roll of Velvia 50 with a Nikon F6 and the Nikon 24mm 1.4 in your home town, shoot, get developed and vlog the whole thing in three days! GO
Wow KR in RUclips, good luck bro
Thanks for the wishes!
i have a question. im looking for a street camera and well this compared to the xt3 is much more quality but in your oppinion as a long term use the xpro 3 will hold up better then then xt3? and for lenses im inbetween the 50mm 2.0 wr and the 56 mm 1.2 but i have a felling the 1.2 56mm in the long therm is not build as good as the 50mm 2.0 wr whats your oppinion on the cameras and the lenses i've asked you ? :) Thanks again for the video and please answer :)
I don't like the X-Pro3, too heavy. I really like the X-T20, X-T10, X-T30 and X-E3 overall. Digital cameras aren't like real cameras that last for decades, with digital we throw them away every few years so durability doesn't matter. It's not 1968 anymore and the less expensive FUJIs are also almost all metal. If they break, send them back under warranty or pay for a repair; I don't see the others being any less durable. Thanks!
Ken Rockwell Thanks for the answer :)
Could the LCD screen open at 90° be used as a waist-level viewfinder?
Yes! Thanks!
I'm an amateur photographer. I often fly 11,000 miles and then take some photos which are important to me. Then I fly 11,000 miles back again. Sometimes I make mistakes; I find it's much cheaper to look at the screen after taking a shot than to get home and realise I cannot correct a mistake. It only takes a second or so to do the check and if others find that idiotic tell someone who cares.
Ah, but we can see so much more through the electronic finder rather than a little screen in the back, especially if daylight. Thanks!
Ken, I agree, but the screen gives a 1 second check to see if an obvious disaster has happened or not. (As you say, the screen is mostly useless in daylight to check fine detail.) Thanks for the reply.
Alexander Menzies You can review the photo you’ve just taken (in fact, any photo) through the EVF. This lets you see far more precisely what is going on than the LCD. You can even set the camera to automatically display the photo you just took for the amount of time you feel is suitable. However, if you screwed up, reviewing the photo isn’t going to change that fact, you just know it a little earlier. That still won’t bring the moment back you meant to take a picture of. Sure, you loose maybe one out of ten photos to camera or user error, but since one would usually work ones way towards a shot, taking two to three dozen shots in the process, you should usually be able to afford loosing one or to frames out of the bunch.
Why is this not a landscape camera in your opinion?
Colors too dull. Just try it and see. Also optical finder a bad idea as you never really know what's in the picture, optical finder is for action. Since you really only want/need the EVF for landscapes, a much less expensive camera will do the same or better job, especially if you want built in flash to add shadow detail. Thanks again!
Thanks!
Not much talk about the improved EVF.
I didn’t see any improvement. The specs suggest a tiny bit bigger and few more pixels, but in actual use it’s the same. More pixels aren’t needed; finder is limited by iffy optics rather than the screen.
@@KenRockwellTV Dissapointing. Thank you.
Using this camera for the next 10 to 20 or 30 years? The screen is just folded in, remember? It's still a digital camera, Ken! :-D
I know, but if I have to fold it out, forgetaboutit. Thanks!
Ken what Portrait lenses do you recommend?
www.kenrockwell.com/tech/portrait-lenses.htm For what camera?
Hey Ken, how highly do you rate the Fuji lenses?
They’re all excellent. Today every lens is optically superb, except for the earliest SONY APS-C lenses that fist came out around 2010 - they’re sometimes soft. Otherwise everything today is excellent optically.
Ken Rockwell! What would you recommend for someone like me who loves color to pop naturally and to perform amazingly in low-light? I'm stumped.
Anything from Canon or Nikon. Avoid Fuji, dull portrait-optimized colors.
I'll stick with my old a** R-D1 lol, but thank you for your review, Ken!
Thanks for watching!
Saving to get the R-d1...possible R-d1x..
@@samanimeguy23 TBH I wouldn't pick R-D1 if I didn't get lucky and came across a crazy deal. Yeah it is tons of fun but for the price, I would go M9 with few hundred extra. Anyway, good luck with your saving, you'll love it!
personally, I'm an LCD screen guy. I could see this camera paired with some great vintage glass giving you the ultimate manual experience, minus the film. I've never experienced muted colours shooting Fuji cameras using RAW. I agree that Fuji cameras are great portrait shooters for shooting humans and domesticated animals. Most professional sports shooters/filmers use manual focus, my hats off to those guys/gals. I'm not a fan boy of any pacific brand but at the moment, Fuji does what I want it to do and makes it fun. Thanks for the review, Glad I didn't buy one.
This is why they make so many kinds of cameras. It takes a special kind of man to appreciate something like this.
cannot believe people still think looking at the lcd is something dumb…
Some people, I know.
that palm tree
I LOVE Palm Trees!
I see the small screen, I’m done with it, what’s the fuck!
It's a Zen thing. Thanks!
So they want you to compose your image using the viewfinder, but also make the EVF smaller than the X-pro2. Um...ok.
No, the EVF isn’t smaller... And it is vastly improved. The OVF has only one magnification instead of 2 before. So bigger with 28-35 and little smaller for 50+ because no magnification change.
Yoann Panda on the spec sheet and other reviews, the EVF is smaller.
Mike H. The eye relief is better (slightly), the magnification is bigger (0.66x instead of 0.59x), resolution is better, larger OLED panel vs LCD, way better contrast and colors, fast refresh rate... nothing is smaller here. It is the Optical viewfinder’s magnification who changes from 2 different ones at 0.36x and 0.60x to 0.52x now. 😉
Some reviews only will show you the OVF magnification and didn’t told you about the EVF one because they don’t have 2 different spaces on their tabloid. It’s very misleading. 😉
Yoann Panda holy crap, you’re right. I just went to two comparison sites and it backs what you said. Yet two you tubers said the opposite. Grr...
Thank you for the correct. By the way, does anyone know if the AF is considerably faster than the Xpro2’s?
Flappy Craps
Flap craps for breakfast!
its like a leica
But so much more useful. LEICA R was a sad boat anchor of a joke. Thanks!
