Re: FUJIFILM XF50mm F2 LENS REVIEW

Thank you for the Review!

That looks really promising, also the bokeh looks really good.  Glad that I preordered the 50/2 a week ago      It will replace my 60/2.4, that was too slow (AF), and a bit too long (indoors) for my taste. I think the 50/2 will be the better overall package for me.

Regarding your review: You mentioned that comparing the new 50/2 with the 56/1.2 is like comparing apples with oranges, because they are too different. But since the 50/2 will be the only affordable XF-Lens in a similar focal lenght (next to the 60/2.4 with it's slow AF), it nevertheless would be interesting for me how you personally think about it in comparison. Is the bokeh and general rendering similar @f2?
