The Fujifilm X-Pro1 has the following connectivity:

• USB Yes
• HDMI Yes

Digital cameras that contain NFC or Bluetooth support are able to be controlled wirelessly via smartphones. You can easily transfer images and usually adjust camera settings with no need to connect directly to the camera.

Certain applications even allow a Liveview and hit the shutter whenever you are not close to the camera. If the camera comes with a HDMI out, it can easily be attached to an external display. Nearly all cameras will allow you to charge the battery pack using the USB port.

The max video quality in the Fujifilm X-Pro1 is 1920 x 1080 and it can capture in H.264 file format. 1080p quality provides a good balance for video quality versus file sizes but 1080p will not leave you with much room to crop. The camera does not have a mic or headphone jack which means that you have no control over your sound. It is probably a better idea to buy an alternative camera if you need decent sound in your videos.

Fujifilm X-Pro1 does not include environment proofing so rainy conditions can easily damage the camera.

The Fujifilm X-Pro1 includes a 3" fixed display screen boasting a resolution of 1,230k dots.

Sadly the display screen isn't a touch screen.
