Re: Looking for a more versatile kit - Fuji x Switch to Sony

If you want fast versatile (super) zooms then Sony (with their third party lenses) is your answer. I have been tempted many times myself but I don't wanna lose all the good things about Fuji. I love the Fuji primes, Fuji colors, size, ergonomics and the XT4's retro dials. It looks like Fuji's catching up with the AF too.

So yeah the choice is yours. Fuji will never be able to compete with fast full frame zoom lenses...the 16-55 is the best we have...and the new Tamron 17-70 with OIS is another option. That 28-200 seems like a decent superzoom but does not have OIS.

You'll really have to weigh the pros & cons to see if Sony is right for you...best to try it out and see if you like it. Otherwise wait for the XT5 and try the 17-70.

Good luck!
