Fujifilm X Pro 1 vs Sony Nex 6

Phoblographer posted an informal comparison between the Fujifilm X Pro 1 and the Sony Nex 6. He compared both cameras in landscape shooting. The image samples you can watch on phoblographer show some differences. The first thing we recognise is that pictures on the Sony Nex 6 look warmer than on the Fuji X Pro 1. Phoblographer notices also that “at the same exposures the X Pro 1 will retain more detail in the highlights but the NEX 6 will retain more information in the shadows”, and that pictures taken with the X Pro 1 look sharper.

Kerry: “Recently had my X-Pro 1 converted to full-time infrared.  Here’s the first set of images from a trip to Colorado earlier this week.  All but the last 3 were with the 35/1.4, the last 3 were with the CV 12/5.6 via the Fuji M-mount adapter.  Hope you like them! Pics on Flickr.”
