I bought that camera upon release. AF was about what you would expect for that era. At that time it was slighted for a soft lens. I thought the lens was fine, although I'd not pay prices these cameras are getting today.

It is just a 4 years old camera! I agree that besides the AF it is a nice camera. Fuji tried to compete with the Ricoh GR. But the AF is much much worse than on even older cameras. I tried it alongside a A6300 and a Panasonic LX10. Even the Panasonic was remarkably better.

But the pictures of the Fuji are great and if someone finds a way to use snap or manual focus in certain situations, it is a good camera. Esp. since it has become way cheaper. At the introduction it was similar in price to a GR. I was so pi**ed off by the AF that it became the first camera I brought back to the shop after 90% non keepers that were all in focus according to the LCD.

I read that there was a firmware update, 1.11, that addressed the focus issue. I have no idea if this improved things.
