I went through the same journey looking for a cheap vintage lens after getting the fuji 18mm, 35mm and 55mm-200mm. I originally planned on one or two lens, but ended up with a variety collection of vintage glass. Because they are so affordable. I have found to love each for different reasons. In general, most vintage glass for me can get soft wide open (which I don't mind at all as most of the edges will be bokehlicious), but are still sharp in the middle. From personal taste, I have found that my favorites are (have not used any takuma or nikkor...) Jupiter 9 (85mm f2.0) Zeiss Jena Tessar (50mm f2.8) Helios 44-2 (58mm f2.0) Zeiss Jena Sonnar (135mm f3.5) Minolta MC (58mm f1.4) Meyer Optik domiplan (50mm f2.8) I used the K&F m42-fx dumb adapter and it's perfect. I have a few vintage 28mm as well, but they never get used over my fuji 35mm...

I recently bought an XT1 graphite edition (I'm in Australia). The additional upgraded features of the XT2 and XPro2 wasn't necessary for me, so thought the price/features on the XT1 was good enough. Unfortunately, had the warping rubber door issue only after 1.5 months of use (bought at the end of August 2016). Serial number 61N00076. Currently with Fuji for repairs. Service personnel from Fuji has been outstanding, but gutted having to send it in after such a short period of use. First time in 9 years I've been physically without a camera so feeling quite empty atm.
