  1. Peter, such a shame that your Fujis were not able to satisfy the demanded performance. Although, a 100 images per battery is nothing like anything I have heard before or experienced, I can imagine that conditions and settings have resulted in this poor battery life. Not sure if anyone mentioned it yet, but I have noticed a significant difference in performance between the W126 and W126S. Although on paper the only difference is design and heat resistence, my X-Pro2 last significantly longer on the S battery. Moreover, when my older batteries (non S) are dead according to my X-Pro2, I can still get about 50-100 images when I put then in my fuji X-E1. This leads me to the conclusion that the older batteries are not able to always supply the power demand of the X-Trans III generation bodies. Moreover, since the batteries provide better actual powerleveldata to the camera, they really get emptied completely. Since the X-T2 is the most powerhungry fuji body and you were using older batteries with deteriorated life, I can image that the batteries already indicated to be empty while they were not really (for other bodies). Have you notices a significant difference between the old and new batteries?
  2. Ken is the absolute embodiment of selfdeclared expertism. Like a lot of so called "expert users and reviewers" on the web, it seems that making a distinction between facts and personal opinions/taste is rather difficult. Especially the overdone statements and grandiloquence really make his reviews distrustworthy. It is such a shame, since his experience with a wide range of equipment could make him a great benchmarker. Now, people get mislead and his reviews are full off disputable statements.
