  • Although the x-pro1's sensor produces amazing colors, I rarely shoot color with it anymore. Rather, I've grown quite fond of the black and white images the xpro1 produces. Slowly, the xpro1 has made its way to become an exclusive monochrome camera. Today I'll share why I use it as so, along with the settings I've used to create many of my favorite images. Enjoy :)

    CZcams, one of the few places where people actually seem embarrassed or apologetic about using pro grade DSLRs or older mirrorless cameras. ;) Consumerism and marketing in the tech space has users so fooled into thinking that only the latest gear is relevant. Anyway, great looking images, congrats.

    I own several Fujifilm cameras. For me, the X Trans 1 sensor has the most beautiful colors. What I like best is the colors of the X pro 1. It looks a bit analog. Tastes are different. Best regards

    A nice one. I decided some time ago tonuse my XPro1 exclusive for B&W. Most of my B&W work is done in JPEG so I have tried various recipies for film simulations. My two favorite films, when I was shooting film, were TriX 400 ISO and Technical Pan pushed from 25 to 50. I have not been able to reproduce them, but I am quite happy with my results.

    I also made the decision to have my X-pro1 for shooting B&W exclusively.
    I'm not exactly sure what it is, but I simply love the way how the x-trans1 sensor renders B&W shots. They have sort of a filmic quality to them in my opinion.

    I also just started using my X-Pro1 for B&W. I am a longer time Capture One user and only get dragged into the Adobe ecosystem to use LR with Negative Lab Pro for film conversion. You mentioned that C1 doesn't support Fuji X-Pro1 B&W and I think I backed into that realization. When I import Fuji raws into C1(V22) they all appear as B&W; but then, they all get resolved as colour images! So, what are the steps that you take next?

      @@ztrhuy7339 Sony’s top of the line AF and FF sensor’s makes me a lot of money and is a lot easier to use for paid work to get great results. They just work with little to no problems, while Fuji AF is at the bottom after Panasonic. For casual fun use and Camera aesthetics I like Fuji

    Can someone tell me if the X-Pro1 can be operated completely silent? Silent mode + electronic shutter? My X-T20 shoots siltently that way but I don’t have the experience with earlier x-series mirrored cameras. Thanks for any advise :)

      It doesn't have an electronic shutter so it cannot operate silently
