I am sorry, but after reading things like:

"it’s just that the focus hunts too much on a Fuji X-Pro2"

"And so while this lens is great, it isn’t the pinnacle of optics. Don’t worry: it’s good enough for 99% for the majority of the users. I’m just not satisfied by anything but the best."

And then the link goes to a car?

And all that follows is ridiculous.

The words "click" and "bait" spring to mind.

This guy is just abusing DP Review. I note that on his other thread "preaching some sense" (that's quite an ego) he didn't reply to any of it.

Agreed that comments like "it’s good enough for 99% for the majority of the users. I’m just not satisfied by anything but the best." say more about the writer than the lens.

"The autofocus is not the best and I would not feel comfortable shooting a wedding with this lens": well I'm perfectly comfortable shooting weddings with the 56mm f/1.2 so to say that the 90mm isn't good enough for weddings is just nonsense.

I think we're probably just falling for it by discussing it. Maybe we should just ignore these threads, at least until he starts writing some sense and at least gets someone to proof read them for him.
