Haha. You accurately captured the Fuji apologists.

You don't have to get a gift on your birthday.. Go out and do something fun instead.

Oh come on. Fuji still lags behind CaNikon in term of lenses quality and quantity. He's not wrong.

I'm not a zoom person but 55-200 is my most favorite Fuji lens. It's so versatile and cheap. Under 120mm the image quality is excellent. Since buying it I'm no longer looking at the 50-140.

The photo is better with the guy, IMO!

Why does it need the switch? Other XF lenses have an "A" mark on the ring.

If you don't mind cropping, 1.5x crop of the 56/1.2 will give you the same picture. The 90/2 is way too big and heavy, especially if you already have the 56. At that point I'd buy the 50-140.

That's because it's dark outside. Think about it, the EVF is always in a "dark room", while the OVF visibility depends on the ambient light. If it's during day time, the OVF frameline has to ...

Actually, in OVF mode, the LCD has to crank up the brightness level by a lot to be clearly visible. It seems counter-intuitive but could be true.

0.75 stop of DR is important if you're a landscape photographer. For me, it'd be nice to shoot at ISO100 native during daylight with all the fast Fuji glass I have. I know there's the electronic ...

*sigh* First of all, you can't compare them at the same ISO. Fuji has a "different ISO standard", to put it nicely. Second, Xtrans tends to produce false details, which appears sharp but is not ...

Are we looking at the same shots? On my big monitor, the dog is only in focus in photo #6, #10 and #11. 3 out of 11 is marginally better than the XT1, but it's nothing to write home about.

Ah the new-camera-syndrome.

That was sarcasm but I guess with the rise of the Fuji purists, it sounded a little too realistic.

Agreed. I will cancel my XPro2 preorder if Fujifilm releases that 4K firmware!!

The reason there's much third party support for Sony is because E mount spec is open, while XF is closed. Also Fuji market share is tiny, I doubt you'll see Sigma & Tamron lens fot Fuji anytime soon.

Now that the X70 is out, Fuji won't give you another 18mm. The same reason you won't see a 23/2.0.

EV comp has nothing to do with cheating ISO.. I also set EV comp to -2/3 because Fuji has a tendency to blow out highlights.

He's paraphasing what people have been saying. It is not wrong though. Fuji ISO appears to be set 0.5-1 stop darker than others, which is funny because with that many more green pixels, you'd ...

Fuji lenses are optimized for center sharpness, which explains the discrepancy in people's perception. Most care about the center only. Funny how I notice a pattern with gear forum. When photozone ...
