Thank You Jose
I'm lookin at this thread, currently Im only on page 4.
But still, even on beginning of this thread, I allready pick up some cherrys, like:

or this:

Not to mention, about this picture which is simply jaw dropping. Best 3D pop I've seen from long, long time. I do allready has this picture as a wallpaper on my laptop and Im about to write PM via flicker to ask if I can buy this shot in full res (artist: this lady: https://www.flickr.com/photos/liltuki/ )

Sorry for completly offtopic, but I just simply cannot resist.
I mean.. There is no way, to replicate such organic/three dimensional pictures from any Fujifilm glass (medium format included, too modern rendering, to clinical).
Even so called "magical" XF 35/1.4 even dont stand close compared to Nikkor 58/1.4
To be honest, Im not sure if there is glass on any system who can match Nikkor 58/1.4 in terms of such way of rendering.
Moderns top lenses are corrected in every way, simply optical perfection - what in final result gives flat, lifeless image (vide Fujifilm XF 18/1.4)
So yeah, couple of my 3 cents about diffirances in camera systems

Yup, off topic indeed. And I’m sure Nikon appreciated the advert.

Frankly, so this could be truly relevant to the Fuji forum you posted it in, I’d be much more interested in seeing direct comparisons between the two brands/cameras which might better illustrate the “organic, 3D… etc.” advantages you talk about here. Ideally, same (or very similar) FL, aperture, and the same compositions. All the terms used here (organic, 3D, rendering, clinical) etc. I see all the time here, but there’s nothing like an apples-to-apples comparison with the same or similar FOV to support your assertions. Otherwise, it’s very subjective and subject to interpretation.
