PDiddy

I have the xp2 and the x100s. The xp2 kinda ruins the x100s for me. I still like it and use it instead of the xp2 for a lot of day to day stuff but I find myself missing the xp2. I think if they make the next x100 with the sensor, processor, focusing system, and joystick of the xpro2 it will be one awesome camera that I will gladly fork out some cash for. Since it is such a small camera a touch screen seems to make more sense than a joystick. Which would be fine with me. Plus if they make it weather sealed... oh yeah. I forgot to mention the flare control on the x100 is not good. It gets hazy really fast with bright light coming in from the edges. It can be annoying.

I do events with the 16-55 on my xp2 with grip attachment and find it pretty well balanced. I was doing events with a 16, 23, 56 combo and was not enjoying swapping lenses all the time. Although these three lenses are killer in low light, so I will usually bring them as backup for those situations. I rented the 18-50 first because I thought that would be the better option for me, over the 16-55. On the xp2 I felt the 16-55 images were noticeably sharper. This may not be the case on the 16mp sensor. Plus I love having any extra stop I can get. I always end up wishing for it when I don't have it. I use the 35 f2 or the 23 for my everyday lenses. I have a tough time deciding between the two. Honestly, I haven't picked up a Fuji lens I didn't like.
