Fujifilm 23f/1.4 and 90f/2 vs Canon 35f/1,4L II and 135f/2L, has anyone shot with both alternatives?

Re: as anyone shot with both alternatives?

Agree with Joachim's comments above.  The Fuji AF is generally more accurate for me, although in really low light the 6D's ability to lock focus is remarkable using center point.

If travel is emphasized, the smaller size of my XPro2 kit is a huge advantage.

The only other comment I'd make is having moved recently from the 35L V1 to the V2, the updated 35L is amazing.  Noticeably better than the V1 and frankly crushes the 23mm 1.4 (which I really do like and is generally glued to the XPro2).

I'm in the process of moving from Canon to Fuji at the current rate.  Down to only 2 Canon lens that I find hard to give up - 35L ii and the 70-200 2.8 ii.  Otherwise I love the Fuji kit for its combination of size, IQ, user experience etc.  Just a lot more 'fun' of a kit to use for me.  Do you lose some DOF and noise control vs FF - yes.  Has it impacted my admittedly amateur/enthusiast photography - no.
