X-A1 with 23 F1.4
4

Just received my 23.  It's big on the X-A1, but very good.  I may get the X-M1 grip for when using this lens.

I just switched from an Oly M4/3rds (E-PL5) system.  That camera was smaller, more portable, with faster AF, and better responsiveness, as well as being far more customizable, but I was never 100% happy with the IQ.  It took a lot of work in LR to get what I wanted, as opposed to the very little work that files from my D600 required.  So I tried the relatively inexpensive X-A1, and I'm very impressed with the IQ.  It seems to play nice with LR.  I've sold the 16-50 that came with it, and have a 2 lens kit, the 14 and the 23.

As I said, this kit is bigger and less portable, and the camera is generally slower to respond, but I'm very happy with the files.  The 23 is big and heavy, but I generally shoot close to 1.4 and the IQ is very good here. The files seem less digitally processed, if that makes any sense. Thanks for viewing my first Fuji shots.  C%&C welcome.
