    Lupus got a reaction from frankinfuji in 60 f/2.4 or wait for new 50 f/2   
    First post here.   

    I used to own the XF 56mm but since I used it so little I decided to sell it (which I now regret). But anyways I bought the 60mm f/2.4,since I got it for about 300€ as a new. And it really surprised me how good it is (see samples below). The AF in good lighting is more than useful. I find it even faster than 56mm. Of course in low lighting it begans to hunt like a maniac. But at the moment it's my go-to lens when I'm going outdoors with my kids. The close-up "macro" capability is a really fun addition. And it's incredibly sharp (just like any other Fuji lens) wide open and has a really gorgeous OOF rendering. It's also a really light-weight, making it a great combo with my X-T1 as well as the X-T10.

    I also have the 35mm f/2 and because it's so darn good I'm eager to see how good the 23mm f/2 and 50mm f/2 will be. If they're just as good as the 35mm, I might have to get them both. But in any case, I am not going to sell my 60mm. The macro is just too fun thing to lose and being a combination of a macro/portrait lens is really useful.
