Tossing it out there to gauge interest. Looking at a change of direction with my "day-time" camera. Perfect travel camera.
Fuji X-Pro1 camera body, bought new by me mid last year, so about 12 months old. Minimal use, and in near new condition. Complete with all the items that are supplied new, plus a couple of extra after-market batteries.
Also have the Fuji 34/1.4, and 18/2, both again as new, with boxes/caps/hoods etc, as supplied.
Wonderful image maker, if you've read this far you'll know what the sensor is capable of. I've used it a bit for astro imaging as well, certainly punches above it's weight, very very noise clean.
PM me if you are thinking of one of these cameras, we can talk prices etc then.

More motivated now. Give it a try here, then off to that great auction site.
X-Pro 1 body AU$1000. ***SOLD***
35/1.4 AU$450. ***SOLD***
18/2 AU$450.
Prices are plus minimal post.
Prefer to sell the lenses AFTER I sell the camera body.
PM please.

Hi Peter,
ummmm, guessing the 35/1.4 becomes a 50mm, and the 18/2 becomes about a 28mm. Guessing though.
Pics uploaded of the camera and 35/1.4. I can/will shoot the 18/2 if required, but essentially it is as used or not used as the 25mm.

I have a project and am tossing up between this and the X100 if I can find the macro lens at a decent price.
BTW do you know if there is a wide-wide angle lens available that is any good?
Hi Peter,
don't quote me, but the new Fuji 14mm is "quite wide", just depends how wide you want. Maybe try a Google on the Samyang 8mm as well.
There is of course the Fuji 60mm Macro, which fits on the front perfectly.
Have to say though, X100 and X-Pro are two different cameras, and I guess it comes down to whether you want the interchangeability of the lenses or not. Certainly for macro you will.
Gary
Just checked. Yes there is a Samyang 8mm f2.8 fish-eye available. Is that what you were thinking?
Another angle is to use an adaptor, and to that end if you had Sony/Minolta (so the "A Mount") lenses you could use them. I would be happy to include such an adaptor, plus two addition non-Fuji batteries.
Taking that a step further, any adaptor that interfaces the camera an a lens would work, and to that end if you had for example a Micro-Nikkor, all you would need was the appropriate Niko to Fuji X adaptor, and away you go.
Gary
Peter be careful of the 60 macro -has AF issues depending where/how you use it-for macro outisde its fine but inside under low light it has bad af apparently
both fuji cameras are a wonderful piece of kit
the wide lens has been delayed going by the fuji forums
