Premium mirrorless digital camera FUJIFILM X-Pro2 (to be released on March 3, 2016) X-Pro2 is a premium mirrorless camera with classic design that has evolved from its predecessor's full magnesium alloy chassis and milled aluminum dials, combined with additional features for enhanced ease of use. The use of the newly developed APS-C sensor X-TransTM CMOS III * (24.3MP, with no optical low pass filter) and ultra-fast X-Processor Pro image processing engine delivers the highest image quality and mobility in the history of the X series. The worlds first Advanced Hybrid Multi Viewfinder allows users to switch between the optical and electronic viewfinders to suit shooting conditions. The chassis design is perfected with operability in mind, placing the shutter speed dial featuring the integrated ISO selector on the top plate, and positioning the Focus Lever for directly adjusting the focus point on the back panel.

It brings back the joy of shooting through the viewfinder in a variety of scenes both indoors and outdoors. The use of the shutter speed dial, exposure compensation dial and aperture ring on the lens barrel enables intuitive operations in the Manual mode, synonymous to the X Series. The addition of the Auto Mode Switch lever, which switches the camera into the Auto Mode with a quick lever operation, makes this model a compact yet fully-featured camera that caters to the needs of a wide range of users from beginners to professional photographers.
