Thanks David.
You are right I forgot to mention, hand held with frozen fingers. The general
tone at 3200iso retains great colors. Very surprising.
It is a very steady piece of a camera. Probably not as good as Philippe's XT2
but enough for what I do.
I found a 1951 Summaron 35 Leica Screw mount, waiting to come home. The latest
interface on the Fuji XE2 does marvel for manual lenses. The EVF is clear and
easy to focus. All together a tiny, light package.
But the X PRo1 is not as nice for manual lenses. It's a different league.
FWIW. Cheers.

Good evening, Xavier!
Your new/old Fuji X-Pro 1 is a remarkable piece of kit!
Noise is well controld for ISO 3200.
Thanks for sharing the night scene. Was it on a tripod? Or was this hand held?
David.
PS: I, too, await news of your coming "Leica" lens. :-)
Good Day Flexers.
As you may know, I tend to practice the "photographic camera love" probably
being French as the infamous DSK caught in NY...
What ever, it is legal and fun!
Because the cameras are now considered as Computers and thus loose their
value steeply. Whatever, I recently a Fuji X PRO1 and the newly 23mm f2. The
combo is really fantastic, a reminder of a Leica M and a 'Cron 35.
And honnestly the combo is amazing, in my eye. Tonite, I did an strret scene
at dark:

The Funchal is a local pub, one of the few open on a Sunday evening. I saw a
long lost friend, Luis, portuguese. Drinking his life, his two kids at home,
Saudade.
The Fuji was set at 3200 ISO. I could not dream this with my Digilux 3.
Colors are preserved. An amazing camera.
I'am now awaiting a Leica Lens that will thrill Alex Hurst in Ireland. Shhhh,
surprise....
Enjoy!
