Hello, before release this was a hyped lens and it seemed to have fade away after release. There are also not many reviews of it on youtube. Currently only at 4/5 stars at BH with many not so positive things said about it.

Any current owners like this lens? Does anyone know how it pairs with the Xh2? Thanks

I’m using it for video work and love it. Detail is excellent as well as color and the lens does behave in a parfocal manner.

Barbarus reposted my video as an example. My only complaint won’t impact photographic work, but during zooms there is an exposure step at the beginning and end of a zoom. Since I use manual mode, and the aperture is a constant F4, it can’t be conventional exposure stepping as many Fuji cameras & lenses exhibit. So I’m not sure what it is.

It really doesn’t even impact me much since I rarely zoom during a shot. All in all I’m very pleased.
