Will this affect the sale of X-pro1 significantly? If X-pro1 can use only Fuji lenses and quite a limit number of other brand lenses, then many people would hesitate to buy the camera, I think (given its rather high price).
However, it is still not quite clear how bad the situation is. For example, how will modern Zeiss WA lenses perform on X-pro1? How will Nikon and Canon WA lenses perform on X-pro1 (suppose converters exist)?

I reckon that converted SLR lenses will perform fine.
I'm not so sure about native WAs though. The images from the XF 18mm f/2 that we've seen so far were rather poor IMHO.
