A Return to the 35mm f/1.4
4

I got a soft spot for Lumix...

My last recent body was the GX7 MkII (I refuse to call it the GX85).

I was deep into M43 until I made the move to Fujifilm with the X-E2, then the X-T1/T2, now the X-E3.

I really like the compact rangefinder styled body for street shooting, but I just love the "Swiss Army Knife" feature rich GX7 MkIII, so I took a trip to Adorama to buy one.

Problem is, there's no Body only option.

So I'm in there pacing, looking at that, looking at the X100F, so what do I end up walking out with?

The Fujinon XF35mm f/1.4 R.

This is actually my 2nd go-around with this lens. I sold it the first time for the 35mm f/2, which is a decent lens.

But the f/1.4... Man!

Hopefully, I can score the GX7 MkII body only, but until then, I'm gonna have some fun with the 35mm f/1.4...
