Without a camera now. Been like that for 2 months. This is not X-Pro1 thread isn't it. I am not saying X-Pro 1 is not good. As a matter of fact, I love X-Pro1, think its the best travelling cam currently. Took some very good travelling (street) pics with X-PRo 1

Contributed my thoughts on Fuji X-Pro Scoop it too
Fuji X-Pro1 | Scoop.it
But X-E1, if it performs as well as X-Pro1 (with same sensor, expecting similar results), I think it will have an edge over X-Pro1 as travelling cam (the fact that its lighter and smaller). Another question is whether there's improvement in video recording in terms of quality.. having option of mic is already a pleasant "upgrade" esp. for ppl who likes to take video while travelling. Another plus is the in-built flash, tho I prefer natural light, but if u try to shoot at night (w/o flash) with X-pro1, it gets very frustrating with the slow AF (even with high iso) so the in-built flash unit will come in very handy on those odd (dark) occassion. Everybody is entitled to their own opinions tho.
U want a sweet deal? Wait for me to sell X-E1 next time. After Xavierlin tho. Maybe I will buy 2 and sell to each of you.. so both can be happy.
AMAZED by how judgemental u are.
Chill....
My guess is tat u want to go back to Fuji, cause u liked it previously. And now with cheaper deal, and the only major differences is e missing ovf, and e best part is tat e af has been improved. So instead of buying back x pro 1, u would want a xe-1, cause e ovf is not a biggie to u.
My guess is also tat u bought e X pro1 initially cause e weight n size difference between tis & a DSLR is Significant. But why u still sell it off n not having a system for 2 months make me wonder...
Anyway, there is still high chance tat u will sell e xe-1 off.
Because I guess your reason for selling xpro1 is tat u were too frustrated with it's shooting capabilities & not because of e weight.
So weight shouldn't b tat big issue to u (xe-1 is only 100g lighter n size is only a little smaller like e x100).
Xe-1 has improved af but at low light, it will still hunt. Tat maybe e reason y u gave up x pro 1, & tat's e reason y u will give up e xe-1 as well...
If tat's e case, I will have high chance to get a 2nd hand from u.
But the reason y u needed to sell off x pro 1 was because of financial difficulty n no matter how much u loved x pro 1, u still need to sell it. Tat's explain y u didn't have a system for 2 months. And now u have money u want to buy back Fuji.
Then I have no chance of getting a 2nd hand xe-1 from u, unless u face another $ problem.
Gezz, I watch too much tv to come up such a script ;p
But if u really sell, I will really buy.
I will buy at least 1-2 months after xe-1 come out. Cause people will start to sell it off. Usually r e new Fuji users.
Or I can wait after 6 months e price will drop to a comfortable price range tat will stay at that for quite a long time.
In the meanwhile I can get a x100 as a backup.
