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

I think it's the right decision for you Pierre - not only for the GPS thing (wouldn't have been a factor for me), but because if you're prepared to carry on carrying the DSLR and some brilliant Canon glass around with you, then you will get slightly better picture quality out of it, just because of the full frame sensor. The amazing Canon AF is another bonus - Fuji is getting there, but it's still not a patch on a good Canon with all its AF-C guns firing.

Regarding the choice between 100L and 135L, I'd say that the 135L has amazing, soft bokeh, and more of it than the 100; but it does have a bit of annoying chromatic aberration at the apertures where you'd want to exploit that bokeh. The 100L is also very, very impressive, but a wee bit more clinical.

Happy shopping!
