The new firmware for the X-Pro 1 and the X-E1 has gotten really good reviews for AF and write speeds, but it has no been out long enough to know if the users agree. It appears that the new AF is as fast as the NEX-7, but not as fast as the OM-D.
No, its AF is neither fast and accurate enough for street. IMO it's the OM-D that bests all other cameras in this aspect: quiet shutter, fast and reliable AF, touch tiltable screen and "touch to shoot" function make it the most stealthy camera in the market.
Fuji won't be the best choice of street shooter until they will stop copying old crap look and use new possibilities.
