Tata Steva got a reaction from Curiojo in Fuji 18mm F2 thoughts?
Like many others, it's "love vs. hate" with this lens: love the size and FOV! Hate that this is the only lens out of all Fuji (primes) line up I have, that I need to watch out and correct in LR when developing files (aberrations, sharpness, etc...).
I wish Fuji will update this lens with same size, max. F-stop of 2.0 and improve obvious inferiority to the rest of the prime champions...

that you need to buy yourself, careful of the kind of statement that you may make with it.
By the way, it is a beret not a cap.

Grain effect?? If you want grain, shoot film.

Tata Steva got a reaction from CRAusmus in X-pro2 launch, keep or sell your x-pro1?
Since coming over from digital Leica, I got only used X bodies: two of Xpro1s and recently an XT-1. I was so pleased using XT-1 and (borrowed 50-140!) on my recent stock photography trip. I am keeping XT-1. But, I'm also keeping xpo1s simply because they are great machines for what I do. Just for sake of having a body attached on each great Fuji prime means more than $400-500 CAD I can get on used market...
I will eventually get xPro2 (and even XT-2), but not right away. Not being a beta tester for a digital camera company, even Fuji. After the entire debacle with Leica M8 and to the extent each digital Leica body I had after (one of the reasons I gave up on Germas in general), I'm not naive as much as GAS syndrome is in my blood. It's just not worth the grief... I hope xPro2 will be a success "out of the box" with no hick ups and "baby sickness". So, in any case by fall of 2016 (when my target purchase date is) hopefully new camera will be ready for my liking...

To me I love it and hate it, I like it obviously for its small form factor and cheap price, as well as it's fast aperture. But at times, even stopped down I've noticed it to be a bit soft. If I was going for a lens because of it's form factor I would recommend it, but I honestly think the 18-55 is a better performer.
