[Get the 56mm f1.2 lens or wait for the 50mm f2?]

Regarding optical quality: I found this German thread with some actual photos taken with (a prototype of) the 50mm f2:

Looks like it has similar close focus characteristics as the 23mm f2 WR. There is always a tradeoff... (FWIW, I have the 23mm f2 and I love it).

[Capture One and new RAW conversion for X-Pro2]

Just a heads up: Capture One was just updated to 9.1.1, featuring "preliminary X-Pro2 support, lossless compressed not supported".

I knew I should not have been shooting compressed RAFs these past weeks… :-( At least I can process my future X-Pro2 images (which I will be shooting in uncompressed raw for the foreseeable future) in Capture One.
