I recently purchased one of these from Ari at FLM Canada. It's my first foray into the higher end ball heads/tripods. I have to say, I can't imagine a better built head. This thing is elegant, strong, and easy to use. I had it figured out after playing with it for a few minutes. He gave me a great price so if you're interested, contact him at http://www.flmcanada.com.

This is an interesting thread, but some of you guys seem a bit arrogant I think is the word. Kindly stop being rude and condescending to others.

That stuff is cool.

Yukosteel in what ways is the Samyang better than the 14mm Fuji in your opinion? The price is better for sure!

Thanks for the info Manypalms. I hear what you're saying, but those are good prices. Maybe I save up and go new to be safe...

If so what was your experience?

Thanks Milandro and good point on the WR. I was leaning towards the 14 mostly because of its reputation and price.

I have an XT-10 with a 35mmF1.4R. I really want a wide angle. Do you prefer the 16mmF1.4R WR or the 14mmF2.8R?

I've owned a Fuji X-M1 for a couple of years, but over the Holidays I picked up an XF35mmF1.4 and it re-ignited my interest. So I placed an order for an XT-10 (one of the open box at One Call - smokin' deal), and am now looking at more lenses. What do you all recommend next? An XF16mmF1.4 WR? Maybe an XF10-24mmf4 OIS? There are so many good lenses to choose from.
