Hello,
I am thinking about changing from my EP-1. I don't really enjoy the images it makes and I really don't like not having an optical viewfinder.
The M8 is now available secondhand for just over a £1000 making it on a par with the Fujifilm price-wise. I also really like the idea of being able to use manual focus lenses with an effective manual focussing system. I have heard that manual focus on the x-pro1 is not ideal. Also, and this is a bit shallow perhaps, but the Leica is such a beautiful object.
However, I would expect the image quality and lack of noise to be superior with the fujifilm.
Does anyone have experience with either or both cameras. I know that there are some Xpro1 users on here.
Thanks,
Ben
