significantly more detail in the fine detail areas, no surprise with a 33% \u00a0increase in mega pixels. \u00a0I would have thought that noise would remain stable, but it has improved dramatically. \u00a0the X-PRO 2 is at the very least 1 stop \u00a0better than the X-T1, maybe stretching to almost 1.5 stops. \u00a0Look at the black scissors, the X-PRO 2 not only has deeper black within noise to speak of, but much better texture detail as well. \u00a0I can&#8217;t believe I&#8217;m saying this but I think I might actually rely on 25,600 if I had to, it looks remarkably good! \u00a0How do you like those apples!!!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>None of this is rocket science, Fuji has found a way to process the noise even more effectively than before and sharpness and details have increased handsomely! \u00a0Win &#8211; Win!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now, you may have noticed that the X-PRO 2 images are darker than the X-T1s . \u00a0Yet both were in the exact same lighting, both were shot at -1 exposure compensation same lens and f stop, f 11 and aperture priority. \u00a0I think the multi pattern metering in the X-PRo 2 has been improved, as they are more perfectly exposured than the X-T1, if you have another explanation I would love to hear it, but for now I will love the exposures I&#8217;m getting out of this camera!!!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Blessings,<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>the
