X100F + TC for portraits?
1

I sold my camera kit for an X100F last year. The only place I am feeling a bit lacking is for portraits. 35mm equiv does some great environmental/reportage type portraits, but I still would like the ability to occasionally do some more classic portraits with a bit longer lens. I mostly shoot JPEG, so I use the 70mm digital zoom for this, but it leaves a bit of resolution (and bg blur) to be desired. I am happy with the results at 50mm digital zoom, but sometimes, again, it's not quite long enough.

So, how is the 50mm TC + 50mm digital zoom (for 72mm) vs the 70mm digital zoom? Significantly more detail? Any difference in BG blur?

How would it compare to an older body like an X-E2 and a 50mm f2?
