Decent pics, but as a 40-150 user, no surprises in your review.
What did surprise me is that you didn't make use of the 1.4 - since you clearly did a fair bit of closeup work, I would have thought this would have been useful, giving you either tighter framing or a more comfortable working distance. But perhaps the loss of a stop was prohibitive in the available light.
Thanks Colin, yeah part of the reason was changing lenses in Costa Rica can be a little challenging and at the start I tried swapping to use the TC but everytime I did something came up that was too close so I got fed up of trying to guess what was going to happen and ended up leaving it. The vast majority of stuff I came across was close enough without. With the possible exception of Sloths and Toucans in distant trees.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
