Fujifilm X-Pro 2 | Beautiful Imperfections

  • Alik Griffin
  • February 16, 2026
  • 2 comments
The Fujifilm X-Pro 2 as of late, has been my favorite camera to use for incidental photography. I kind of just leave it around so it's very accessible, near the front door or wherever and grab it whenever I go outside. Aside from my X100F, it's become my grab it and go camera with the advantage of swapping lenses depending on the mood I'm in.

One of the more interesting vintage lenses is the Russian made M42 mount Industar 50mm f3.5 pancake lens. The Industar has won lots of praise over the decades and people really seem to love it. So is the lens good?

Morning Sun | Tokyo

Traveling to Tokyo from California is always great for the first few days because it's very easy to wake up for the sunrise. I don't typically wake up until 10am since my lifestyle of working as an editor for an ad agency has made me completely nocturnal. So when you factor in the time difference between California and Tokyo, sleeping in until 5am is perfect for me.

A Quick Stay In Yufuin Japan | X-Pro2 / X-T2

We took the train from Fukuoka to Yufuin Japan. The ride is a few hours through Japan's countryside, carved out by rivers and rice fields hidden between volcanic peaks, the landscape here is amazing and is one of Kyushu's must see spots. It's also a great place to relax, or to just shoot some travel photography.

Kaza Deluxe makes some of my favorite leather cases and their leather half case for the Fujifilm X-Pro 2 is no exception. These cases are simply awesome and are without a doubt the best bang for the buck considering everything that you get.
