I'm perfectly happy with f4 travel lenses on full frame and I'm mostly happy with f4 travel lenses on aps-c but I just don't know if f4 on micro 4/3 will be enough. I believe I would too often be...

Yes, you can shoot in Manual mode and set "Preview Exp in M Mode" to ON.    You can also see the effect of exposure compensation in A or S priority modes.

Using Lightroom you will still see the differences with a lens that is obviously better (or worse) in a given setting.    I'd say that only with two lenses that are very close would I worry about ...

Hans, as this thread has derailed into back and forth about the critical replies to your post it has taken away from your original post and I want to apologize for my role in this and also to ...

Yes, this is madness.   At this point this thread has turned into a joke not because of the OP's post and not because of the initial less than favorable replies but because of a few people like ...

I agree but there is a difference between using a camera for a few hours (and ultimately 4 days) to make a purchase decision and using a camera for a few hours to rush and post your impressions.   ...

And why are you comparing the X-T2 with a lens that is equivalent to a FF 84mm with a FF lens that is equivalent to 50mm? See first answer. Yes, I get the math.... easy breezy, just comparing ...

I can't comment on the X-T2 but IMO Fuji has a very strong selection of lenses well suited for landscape photography.    The 14, 10-24, 16, 23, and 16-55 are the ones that stand out to me based on ...

Inaccurate or shouldn't be compared in the first place "And yes, lenses on the Fuji are great but the 56/1.2 is very heavy compared to the 50/1.8 on the Nikon for similar DOF wide open." " the XT2 ...

I don't think anyone considers the OP a Sony troll?   But the OP starts a thread in the Sony forum with that title and he only means well? hmmm, with 3000 dpr posts I can guarantee you one ...

Well, the opinion was based on a few hours and not 4 days in case you missed it.

Yes, fair points but if you have the budget to buy the X-T2, 18-55, and 56 f1.2 then you have the budget to buy the 16-55 and a prime with faster AF like the 35 f2. It simply depends on your ...

It is certainly helpful to suggest the 16-55 if AF performance vs the A6300 is your goal.   It just doesn't make sense to say "I was really hoping the X-T2 AF was better than the A6300" and then ...

That's a bit of a stretch. Yes, maybe and I get the impression that the less than favorable responses are people trying to help him understand why his rushed conclusions and less than ideal testing ...

I think you're reading too much into my comments.    The perception that any reply that isn't 100% positive automatically means that someone is defending Fuji is not accurate.     I'm not being ...

It's a free country but I'm not a fan of anyone posting their impressions after a few hours.    It is just impossible to know what you're talking about in very many areas in that short amount of time.

My situation is similar .....   don't need best in class AF and don't need video.    I like the weather sealing and dual card slots on the X-T2 but can't say that I couldn't do without them.   I ...

I brought up the X-T2 as an alternative to the E-M1 II in terms of AF performance or anything else? I'd be interested in a link to those comments since I've apparently forgotten when and where I ...

I'm not sure what you'd be looking for at this point....  Are you looking for spec sheets or real world experience?   Early reviews ignoring action AF performance?    Perhaps give the action ...
