Many reviews of the 60mm. date from when that lens was first introduced. That means usually the lens was reviewed on the only then available body: the X-Pro 1. And while that was a really gorgeous camera with many then unique features, it was (a) not exactly renowned for having blisteringly fast Af and (b) not the most ideal body for macro shots.

On my X-Pro 1, the 60mm. was slow to focus and awkward to use. Then I got an X-T1 and it already became much more fun to use. Now, on my X-H1 and X-Pro 2 it's a joy to work with. Sharp, very precise and fast enough AF and beautiful rendition of colour and pleasing bokeh. I'd highly recommend it!
