Re: A seriously underrated lens

Nice post!  I have always been tempted to get the 60.  That and the brick are the only two prominent XF lenses I don't own.  I think I'm about to buy the brick, but won't buy the 60.

I would if it were 1:1 macro.  I have 60 fairly well covered with the good old 18-55, 50-200, 50-140, 50 F2, and 56.  Well, sort of -- you get the point.

But nice shots and it is a fine lens.  I think Fuji missed on that lens.  They had a chance to make it great.  They need a lens around 60 with WR, newest focus motor, 1:1 macro, and 2.8.  They could do it easily if they wanted to.

The 60 tried to be something it is not.  But it is a very fine lens and I almost bought it.  Fuji glass always has great IQ.  That's for sure.  All of them....  Especially the primes.  There are no primes dogs.
