Cheers. As r2d2 guessed I want to keep the size down. Also I like pancake lenses.

I'll likely go back to Fuji as I want to do some 28mm shooting after two years at 35mm eqvt. No 18mm prime for canon apsc.

I'll likely keep the sl1 for summer as I prefer a DSLR when I can use one.

Tried kit lens at 18mm but focus too slow and close focus distance too long.

I'll get the Fuji x100t with the WCL for a while... I like changing cameras every now and then anyway... ha ha

Cheers all

You could go wild and try asony A6300/6500 with a sigma 19mm f2.8

Ick I hate those cameras for the way they feel and the lenses and the colour science.

I'll go fuji as i can have both 18mm and 23mm primes without having to use zooms.

I found a mint X-Pro 1 with full Fuji case and 18mm F2 for a combined £470.  It's either that or the X-100 T which I loved and the WCL lens.

Shame that Canon low light is still not really there yet in the affordable range.

Shame that they don't do an 18mm prime for crop too.

Shame that Nikon do neither an 18mm or 24mm for crop as their high ISO is peach from D3300 upwards.

I'll keep the sl1 and 24mm F2.8 STM for summer shooting as the IQ in good light from that combo, as well as the AWB and colour is just fantastic and I do prefer using a dslr.

Even if the SL2 had high ISO equal to Nikon or Fuji crop, still no 18mm prime which is what I really want as I've done almost 2 years at 35mm and feel need for a change.

Cheers all
