Fujifilm X-Pro1 vs Leica M11

Its time to examine more in depth at the Fujifilm X-Pro1 and Leica M11, one being a Advanced Mirrorless and the other is a Pro Mirrorless by competitors FujiFilm and Leica. There exists a significant gap among the image resolutions of the Fujifilm X-Pro1 (16MP) and M11 (60MP) and the Fujifilm X-Pro1 (APS-C) and M11 (Full frame) feature different sensor measurements.

The Fujifilm X-Pro1 was released 10 years earlier than the M11 and that is a fairly sizable gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both the cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before delving through a detailed comparison, below is a quick synopsis of how the Fujifilm X-Pro1 matches up versus the M11 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Below is a sample of the gallery pics for Fujifilm X-Pro1 and Leica M11. The complete galleries are provided at Fujifilm X-Pro1 Gallery and Leica M11 Gallery.

In case you're looking to lug around your camera often, you'll have to factor its weight and proportions. The Fujifilm X-Pro1 provides outside measurements of 140mm x 82mm x 43mm (5.5" x 3.2" x 1.7") and a weight of 450 grams (0.99 lbs) and the Leica M11 has measurements of 139mm x 80mm x 39mm (5.5" x 3.1" x 1.5") with a weight of 640 grams (1.41 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you are utilising at that time. Below is the front view overall size comparison of the Fujifilm X-Pro1 compared to the M11.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability score of the Fujifilm X-Pro1 and M11 is 80 and 76 respectively.

Normally, it's hard to imagine the gap in sensor measurements only by seeing a spec sheet. The photograph here will help provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-Pro1 and M11.

Clearly, both of those cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-Pro1 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field harder and the Leica M11 will show greater detail as a result of its extra 44 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images far more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-Pro1 will be behind with regard to sensor technology.
