Re: Fujifilm XF 18-135mm vs XF 18-55mm + XF 55-200mm for travel photography

This lens is well adapted for trekking light, fast AF 1:1 ratio reprod with a 150 Raynox Bonnette at 135mm with no vignetting and 5 stops OIS

Haven't you found the AF isn't great? It can be fast but often misses on my X-T30. The 150-600m AFs much better and has made me doubt the 18-135 quite a bit for fast shooting. Getting an X-T5 so will see how the 18-135 does on that.

Also my 18-135 droops when pointed down, it slides out with little resistance which is not great when walking around.
