This is the reason why I am going to sell all my Pentax and Canon EOS gear soon!

Why three of them and no X-Pro1?

Two reasons:

1. I had the X-E1 first, then the X-T1 and did not want to buy another one, but then a good friend offered me a mint X-E2 for a very fair price. So I could not resist.

2. The X-Pro1 still is pretty expensive for what it offers. The only special thing about it is the optical viewfinder. But it disappointed me at the last Photokina, the AF performance sucked then. Perhaps it's better meanwhile with new firmware. Anyway, te X-Pro1 is too expensive for its value.

wow, congrats Carsten, what a set!
I even had missed that you had the X-T1, amazing camera. The X-Pro 1 has the looks, but isn't the X-T1 Fuji's top model and superior?
May I ask, are you using mostly Fuji AF lenses on these?

Thanks, Andy.

Yes, the X-T1 is considered one step above the X-Pro1, but acually those are different cams and not really comparable.

The X-Pro1 shares the sensor with the X-E1, and the X-E2 shares the newer sensor with the X-T1 (plus the newer and better AF system).

I use Fuji AF lenses (1.4/35 and 18-55, not so much the 50-230) for about 50% with those cams, and the other 50% mainly those MF-lenses:

Samyang 2.0/12 CS
Samyang 2.0/16 CS
Pentax-A 1.4/50 (plus LensTurbo)
Fujinon 1.8/55 (M42)
Voigtländer Color Heliar 2.5/75
Leica Tele-Elmarit-M 2.8/90
