I can't help but wonder whether Fuji has missed the boat. It looks quite good 
compared to an OM-D EM-1 but against the Sony a7? I like the Fuji lenses and 
sensor but again, full frame and availability of Zeiss glass in a similar size 
package for just a bit more? (about $200 here - Fuji kit, $1800-$2000, a7 kit 
$2200 with free grip and Metabones adapter, a7R - $2400 body only and I found 
it as low as $2100). 
And my early experience with the X-Pro 1 was frustrating - slowest write to 
card time I've ever had to overcome. I was missing a lot of street moments. I 
know they claimed a firmware improvement but when I tried someone's example in 
a casual 'can I check something' kind of way, it didn't seem much better. Have 
they sorted that?
I also note that the UK price for body only from a 'warehouse' is more than the 
US price for body with kit lens ($400) more). Strewth - even we don't get 
VAT'ted that badly.
