Thing is, if you use the Fuji f2 lenses close up to the subject that is when their performance really collapses.

Keep in denial, keep making excuses. First the lenses were bad wide open. Now it's only if it's closed up (not true!).

I noticed that picture was at iso 400 and a super high shutter speed - easily done with that nonsense fake film ISO dial

Nope. It's about the DR mode. You know, DR the the Olympus lacks :-).

But hey, what do I know. I sold my X-E3 and keeping GX9/PenF for my main shooting right now.

Sorry - just to be clear. I am stating that the F2 Fuji primes are soft wide open and very soft (to my eye unuseable) wide open and close up.

I don't know what DR mode is, but if it thinks wide open with shutter speed 4000 and ISO 400 is a sensible set of parameters it fits right in with their ergo design principles and stubborn refusal to abandon their X-Trans malarkey.

This is my last post on this matter as you are basically trolling the micro 4/3 forum by massively overselling what Fuji has to offer whilst bashing the system we use.

Might I suggest anyone who wants to see swathes of evidence supporting my point of view googles: fuji soft wide open close up

I like the concept that somehow I am massively trolling when I am responding to a dubious claim and provide evidence for the sharp  on the other hand you only provide words and humor which is why it’s hard to take what you are saying seriously

I am not “bashing” the system we use while I simply express and give credit to what Fuji is doing  in fact look at the very first post of the thread   Why don’t you ask why I sold my Fuji and kept m43rds?  Maybe that would make me write some stuff that you want to hear

Of course I also start threads with photos, so yes, I think I am qualified by experience to make the comments I say and they shouldn’t be taken as trolling or personal affronts  these are just photographic tools
