I've owned both of these lenses and prefer the Zeiss 1.8/32 in every category including the slightly wider FOV versus the Fuji 35/1.4. If you look at previous threads on the subject, you will find a lot of people trashing the Zeiss but when you dig deeper, you find the never owned one and may have used one a couple of times, usually without the single firmware update Zeiss issued for the lens versus the seven or eight firmware updates Fuji has issued for the 35/1.4 to improve its performance, and the Zeiss is still faster and more accurate.

When I had my X-T2 for six months, the Zeiss 1/8/32 was on it 90% of the time.
