Visions in Tokyo I got one to go in the desk at my office so I can just wander around with it at lunchtime. Great camera and different images from my xpro3. Deffo agree with you that the menu system seems archaic in comparison!
Visions in Tokyo cheers dude! Yeah for sure, planning a trip next year (was supposed to be there in April but well.. stuff). Looking forward to the next vid!
I started shooting professional back in 1998 and finished shooting film back in 2013. I transitioned to digital back in 2003 but even with my latest xt3 I still felt all my pics were too digital. So I purchase the xpro1 and paired it with some old minolta and yashica glass and the images and colours were amazing. Unfortunately I sold my xpro 1 at the start off lock down to pay a few bills. Great video btw
Enjoyed watching this, was impressed at how quickly you assess a scene and find your angle. Some great shots - the quality is more than enough for 2020.
I can smell a fellow Manc! :) Love the intro! After flirting with the X100 range. I had to go back and buy the x pro ......again. I should never have sold it! edit: I'll be your 300th subscriber, congrats! Soon be 1k!
Hopefully you get out here. It’s an awesome place for sure. I came here for a once and a lifetime trip in 2015 and loved it so much I ended up moving here haha
Cool work... still using my XT1 for street and picked up 2 x Pro 1's in excellent nick for £250 each. Using adaptors and vintage lenses at present on the Pro's as primarily zone focus so tempted to step out of my comfort zone and hit the streets with one instead of the T . Really coo,captures btw
loving the vids, dude, gorgeous saturation from that set up, niiiiice :) Recently picked up a RicohGR compact and LOVE IT! Stunning little camera and made for street photography, cant wait to get out and do some proper shots with it :)
im hoping for an updated 35mm f1.4 hopefully the same optical formula that made people fall in love with it, but wr and faster autofocus. i have the f2 version which is a great little lens but it just lacks that little touch of magic from the f1.4 I actually had the 1.4 but sent it back as i think i got a bad copy that just wouldnt focus right at all. i ended up getting an old manual minolta instead which is probably my favorite lens at the moment
I mentioned in the description above that I shot in velvia but only used it as reference then edited the raw files just so I had a bit more wiggle room to work with
@@Visions_in_Toyko The question is still there - did you noticed the difference between those two sensor's images for yourself? Colors and image quality while woching on it on the screen ... how are they comparing to each other?
I love night shooting I have an xpro1 i bought 3 years ago from a pawn shop for peanuts with a beige leather on it that was a factory option back in the day. Great camera. I need to use my 27mm more. The focal length is perfect.
Very nice! Great review and very nice how you do this with filming in normal view and showing what the picture looks like in that situation with the pro1-27mm setup. Thanks. One thing i miss is your final conclusion. You start with xpro1 related to xpro3 but you do not mention anything about your conclusions about picturequality, colours, colourrendering. Also i like to hear about this compared to the pro3. I am really interested but one thing never change... i love my pro1! ( i also have pro2 and xt3) Thanks mate and keep up the good work. Love to see more vids from you! Miklos
thanks for watching and sorry for the late reply, i mount a go-pro on the camera so the video is from that and the photos are from the camera. To be honest, to my eye there really wasnt much difference. I ended up selling the pro 1 as I just never used it and always went for the pro 3, to me it is a better camera in many ways. I got the pro 1 initially to be a compact set up, but now I have the ricoh gr3 which is my compact daily carry and I am enjoying using it so far.
Stumbled across this hunting down x-pro1 videos, and realized I met you back in 2019 in Osaka! Don't remember the context of our conversation, things get a bit fuzzy around triangle park.... Great video by the way!
Hi Visions in Tokyo, another great outing around parts of Tokyo. Actually I have only just purchased an X-PRO2 and I love this camera man! the form factor is beautiful, so I do hope to get the 3 towards the end of the year! But seriously though, would you recommend I pick up an X-PRO1, or would I find it slightly inferior to the X-PRO2? ....Thanks for your opinion!
I would certainly say that coming from an xpro 3 it feels a lot more dated and not quite as smooth to use, but the experience of using it feels great. I would say that if you can find one in good condition for a decent price there and you have the spare cash there is no reason not to get one as a back up. It’s a lot cheaper then the 3 that’s for sure.
I'm a Canon man but you've got me tempted to get an x-pro variant of sorts.. get away from big ass camera an lens'. Haha. Good work again man, really enjoying the videos. 🤓
I would certainly say the X-pro 1 is a great gateway into the fuji system, especially as they can be picked up pretty cheap. Its not as well rounded as the X-pro 3 but to be fair it can be picked up for 1/4 of the price if you find a good deal online. I would recommend
Yes I know the feeling. I love the small form factor so I guess in order to make it so small the aperture ring had to go. But it’s nowhere near as intuitive to me to use a dial and I would occasionally knock it by mistake just when handling the camera.
great photos.!! if you take a request i want to see a little bit scientific comparison between xpro1 sensor vs xpro3 especially in the sooc jpeg side for next video. sorry for my broken english, you got +1 subscriber here
Usually using mf or zone focusing as I find it to be more reliable. Are you based in ikebukuro? I will let you know if I’m ever back out that way and we can go shoot some pics together for fun. Send me a message on Instagram if you use it. Big ups
It worked fine for me but this was literally the first time I have ever used it so I guess that is a question best answered over time. Fingers crossed it will be fine
@@Visions_in_Toyko I have two xpro1 and love them. Haven't really tried my hand in video filming with them, but now I'll give it a try. Let's face it, its autofocus is way faster than manually focusing and you see what you get. Great colours and easy getting to know and handle. I recommend it wholeheartedly. Good show.
Goran Pavletic well I am not a tourist as I have lived here for three years but I appreciate your feedback, I have not been doing it long and make no claims to be great at it, but I am taking the time to go out and shoot what I see and sharing the journey for those who may want to watch it.
What do you guys think of the X-Pro 1? is it a camera you would look to get in 2020?
Visions in Tokyo I got one to go in the desk at my office so I can just wander around with it at lunchtime. Great camera and different images from my xpro3. Deffo agree with you that the menu system seems archaic in comparison!
Howard Hewes I would love to see some of your photos if you have a link to a website or instagram
Visions in Tokyo for sure man! It’s @he.shoots.street I’m based in Edinburgh
Howard Hewes some lovely pics you got there. Love some of the muted colours. If you ever make it to Tokyo let’s go shoot

Great photos.. fantastic colors
Great music too..👍

Thanks Buzz, I appreciate you taking the time to check the video
@@Visions_in_Toyko same here!
Take more photos 👏🏻👏🏻
“It has a lot of love hotels”
Moments later:
“I think i will do some “exploration” here..”
haha, when i put it like that....
Cool shots ! Great video ! Loved it ! Loved the music as well ! kuartz is a genius !

I use mine with the 35 f/1.4 -- for the full "magic."

Phillip Goldsworthy nice job picking up 2 for that price. i have a load of vintage lenses that i plan on using in some future videos for sure.
You’ve got such a good eye man! Love the POV style - just like stockezy’s vids. Quality shots, subscribed and liked!
thanks a lot for checking the video out. much appreciated my man
Jet Set Radio vibes with the soundtrack
Xpro1 is on my wishlist for the price seems like a no brainer will be getting it very soon.
Xpro3 $2k for an apsc sized sensor no way!!!!!
Excellent content !!! Mate the music is 🔥
Great video and great shots mate, loving the Tokyo vibes. Subbed
Thanks Craig, I appreciate you taking the time to check the channel. Big ups

Yes I heard amazing things about the gr series. Maybe it’s something I will look into in the future but right now I’m all about that Fuji love
I am not actually so much into photography but I enjoy building photographs. I like the 3rd set of photos. Great video man✨
Thanks for checking the video out Charlie. Much appreciated
@@Visions_in_Toyko Sure thing! 😊
Very cool video! I am in love with Japan, and this is a really cool way to see the country! Keep it up.
Thanks very much for checking out the video. I really appreciate it
Love the GoPro POV that shows what you're looking at leading up to the photo. Seen a lot of X-Pro 3 reviews, none done like this
Thanks Kelvin, glad you like the video
I wish Fuji would bring an updated 27mm with WR.
Great video once again. Thanks for sharing
im hoping for an updated 35mm f1.4 hopefully the same optical formula that made people fall in love with it, but wr and faster autofocus. i have the f2 version which is a great little lens but it just lacks that little touch of magic from the f1.4 I actually had the 1.4 but sent it back as i think i got a bad copy that just wouldnt focus right at all. i ended up getting an old manual minolta instead which is probably my favorite lens at the moment
According to Fujirumors a new version of the 27mm will be released very soon. It will have an aperture ring and most probably WR.
These are very cool 🔥🔥
thanks so much, I appreciate you checking the video and dropping a comment
So does the generation 1 sensor have more magic? The photos look good, but I don't know if they are SOOC or tweaked heavily in Lightroom, etc.? Thx
I mentioned in the description above that I shot in velvia but only used it as reference then edited the raw files just so I had a bit more wiggle room to work with
@@Visions_in_Toyko The question is still there - did you noticed the difference between those two sensor's images for yourself? Colors and image quality while woching on it on the screen ... how are they comparing to each other?
waiting for the answer also for these sensor comparison especially inthe sooc jpeg side
Is there a reason you use iso 800 in good light? Amateur here just trying to see if I’m missing something.
If I remember I was shooting in aperture priority mode so it was the cameras choice to use it that time.
Fantastic composition well done 👍
I love night shooting
I have an xpro1 i bought 3 years ago from a pawn shop for peanuts with a beige leather on it that was a factory option back in the day.
Great camera.
I need to use my 27mm more.
The focal length is perfect.
Yeah it makes for a really nice set up for sure
You're great at finding nice pools of light!
Thanks it’s certainly what I look for when I’m out shooting. Light is everything
The 27mm is a great street lens. It’s rarely off my X pro3.
Very nice! Great review and very nice how you do this with filming in normal view and showing what the picture looks like in that situation with the pro1-27mm setup. Thanks.

haha, how funny, and yes they get very fuzzy around there haha. are you still in Osaka?
like your video my friend ! im going to buy my own pro1 soon 😍
Thanks very much for taking the time to watch. I’m enjoying using it for sure, it’s a great little camera

@@Visions_in_Toyko got mine for 260aud, make it 1/8 the price :)
Nice vid , love the 27mm , use it often , just wish it had an aperture ring .

Lovely set of photos. Have you tried any other lens on the pro 1 or even the 3 which you would recommend?
How did you shoot the camera with your finger at the end? That was amazing!!!!!
What fingers? All I saw was a pistol
Seems like cameras post 2012 will do the biz. Makes for some good bargains second hand.
For sure. There are some great bargains to be found as people continue to crave for the latest and greatest.
yup, definitely see you in more of a relaxed fit jeans and trench coat type of a guy. Np concealing an xpro1 w/ 27mm
You lost me with the intro
No worries Joe, my style isn’t for everyone. Thanks for dropping by anyway
What is the latest firmware version?
great photos.!!
if you take a request i want to see a little bit scientific comparison between xpro1 sensor vs xpro3 especially in the sooc jpeg side for next video.

I saw a tree!
10:31 As an Englishman, I wonder if the 'British,' pub in the photo feels like a Pub?
Legendary sensor...of course good photos! See you at Ikebukuro😁
By the way, were you using AF or MF?
Usually using mf or zone focusing as I find it to be more reliable. Are you based in ikebukuro? I will let you know if I’m ever back out that way and we can go shoot some pics together for fun. Send me a message on Instagram if you use it. Big ups
How is the reliability of the camera? Rumors of it being rather poor have been the biggest reason for my staying away.
It worked fine for me but this was literally the first time I have ever used it so I guess that is a question best answered over time. Fingers crossed it will be fine

Snapshots and tourist's shoots ars not street photography .
