Fujifilm X-Pro1 vs Sony NEX 7 vs Olympus EM-5 Specification comparison review, all these three camera are the most popular mirrorless camera of today.
First See a quick Specification Comparison
Low-Light performance and Dynamic range
From the specification comparison it is clear that Fujifilm X-Pro1 have big APS-C size sensor and 16 megapixel resolution , the Sony NEX 7 have a high resolution 24.3 megapixel APS-C sensor and Olympus OMD EM-5 have small 4/3 format sensor with 16 megapixel resolution.

Video Performance
Sony NEX7 offers Full HD at 60 and 24 fps, Olympus EM-5 also offer Full HD at 60 fps (but no 24fps) and Fuji X Pro-1 Full HD video recording limited to 24 fps only.

The Fujifilm X-Pro1 JPEG from camera look clear and usable upto ISO 3200, Sony NEX 7 performance is also good but I am really disappointed by Olympus EM-5 High ISO performance.
