No difference between the X-Pro 1 and X-E 1. The 60mm is an excellent
lens, only a slower focusing one. I think the Fuji X series is
introducing many non Nikon users to the huge advantage of being able
to crank up the ISO without much of a quality degradation in an image.
Nikon users have had that experience for a few years now.
Cheers
