Re: To consider without hesitation

Hi,

If you can live with the fact that it has first gen AF, it's a great lens - perhaps under-rated in this forum.  Pretty much everyone agrees that it should have had a limiter, because it will indeed hunt through the entire range if it doesn't lock on focus.  Most people switch to MF with a macro lens anyway for higher magnifications.

I hope Fuji develop a Mark II with a limiter, improved AF and sealing.  I'd be perfectly happy if they leave the optics the same.

Cheers, Rod
