XT1 is currently the best model wrt focus speed. The XE1, XE2, XT1, XPro1 all use essentially the same quality of sensor. Same IQ and number of MPs but the XE2 and XT1 have the second generation sensor with the extra AF components that allow for faster AF as it has PD and CD components. There will be an XPro2 in 2015 but who knows what sensor it will have! If you want to compare your XE1 v. XE2 then see here http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/fujifilm-x-e2

Got my hands on an XT1 at last today. Very nice. Will certainly be getting one in very near future....just waiting for a contribution from redundant items on eBay!

What... The Yorkshire spring has sprung.  Did you get to try the 10-24mm as well ?

The Fuji 14mm f2.8 is a FX equivalent of a 20mm and I find it wide enough for me. It is a brilliant lens with almost no distortion or CA.

If you want to go relay wide for a reasonable price , check out the Samyang 8mm Fisheye Lenses. I have the t/3.8 which is the video FX version but there are a variety of mounts and a new f/2.8 in Fuji and Sony mounts. They are manual focus but at 8mm there isn't much to worry about and costs are around $400US. The quality of mine is good with the D600 and most of the reviews on recent Samyang lenses are very close to other brands costing 3 to 4x as much.

Did they sort out the problem that lens had with earlier Nikon bodies where the lifting mirror was catching on the lens inner mount? I seem to remember hearing of some disasters with the D1X mirror smashing into the rear element.

TomOC wrote:Think there might be one in my Easter basket this year Well I blame JK!!!  I have been struggling with the resale value of the XE1. It's depreciated a lot faster than the Nikon bodies. So I have resisted buying yet another Fuji body no matter how improved it might be if I couldn't get a decent resale or px...until JK, bless him, suggested I have it converted to IR! Hmmm...an XT and an XEIR with 3 common lenses covering 18-200mm all for less weight than a D7000 and compact zoom! Now that's too tempting!!!!

I am probably horribly wrong but I wouldnt bet against myself at this point in time. XPro2 will be an XPro1 with the XT1 technology on steroids! I will want one but I have 15 months to wait.
