The X-E1 has updated the menu a bit
compared to the X-Pro1, but the general appearance is almost equivalent. When
the camera is set to Movie mode, the previous one is replaced by a minimalist Movie
menu.

The shooting menu plays role as a host of
the imaging setup, which is arranged logically through five tabs. Plenty of
their most -used options - ISO, image processing options, etc. - are very easy
to access through the Q menu.
