Just a small clarification... You seem to suggest that the 27mm Mk 1 (without the aperture ring) is an XC lens. It is not; it's an XF lens.  As a matter of fact, I think it's the only XF lens ...

This simply isn't true. All of the other ILC X-cameras, except the entry level A series, avoid the PASM approach. The XT, XPRO, XH, and XE series models all share a non-PASM control set, which has ...

I have the 15-45, 18-55, and 16-80. Of the three, the 15-45 gets the most use because: 1) it's spectacularly sharp at 15mm; 2) of its small size and light weight; 3) the power zoom can be ...

Yes, I'm glad they incorporated Tiff output into the newest camera models.

18mm leaves me constantly wishing I could go a little wider. For that reason, I'd take the 15-45, 16-50, and 16-80 over the 18-55.

I love the f1.4 lens and have found it to focus plenty fast on newer Fuji Cameras. It also has the clutch mechanism for manual focusing... a very special lens. No way I'd swap it for the F2 version

I'd take the 23 without thinking twice about it. But the 14 is so small that I think you've set up a false choice.

I love this response!

Strange to resurrect a 3 year old thread.

I'm betting this could have been accomplished in Affinity without switching to Gimp.

I got mine from B&H in March.

I see them both as digital art. It's just a question of which method you use for the layering

Not sure how it is that choice becomes a paradox. A quandary or dilemma and thus a complication, sure, but a paradox?

I can remember when "Japanese" meant cheap and plasticky like the original Honda Civic and the breakable plastic toys some of us grew up with. In those days, German was to Japanese as Japanese is ...

What does it me to describe your opinion as "humble" and then slam an exclamation mark upon it?

Mine certainly isn't constantly out. Why would anyone do that? Sometimes I shoot entire series with it out. It's not a bother at all I haven't heard of it breaking. Have you? It easily flips to the ...

A variety. Same here. Couldn't agree more, which is why I love the flip down screen. Easily visible when you want it, and completely gone when you don't. When it's closed, your camera is keeping a ...

Ulrik, How did you process the first four?

I agree completely. The lack of a visible LCD, but having one that folds out when you want it for waist level shooting is classic.  I prefer the design to the X-Pro2, and I really liked that one.

Sounds like the X-Pro3.
