Is the fujifilm x pro1 good for wildlife?

The Fujifilm X-Pro1 is not my first pick for wildlife. It's a 2012 body with slow autofocus by today's standards, and it has no in-body stabilisation, so you'll depend on stabilised lenses. Wildlife already asks a lot of gear, and a subject that won't wait makes slow autofocus hurt.

If you want to try it anyway, the lens list does have reach. I'd look at:

• Fujifilm XF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 R LM OIS WR, like 105-450mm on full frame, a sensible starting point.
• Fujifilm XF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR, like 150-600mm on full frame.
• Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD, like 225-750mm on full frame, if you want more reach.

Long lenses are easier to try cheaply when bought used, as explained in Buying used. For the full picture on subjects like this, see Wildlife and sport and the Fujifilm X-Pro1 page.
