[Is the old 56mm still worth the money?]

I don't know the answer. I have the same question when I look at Sigma , Tokina and Viltrox offerings. Sigma seems to be the closest in terms of performance. depending on your shooting style you can decided if you really need f1.2 or 1.4 is good enough. one thing is certain: bokeh is not the same. for me sigma may be just enough.

you have some great work in there

 

[AF after firmware update]

I tried and it works for me. I suppose you enabled eye traking already.

what is the AF preset you are using?

 

 

[differences per resolution and quality settings]

Hi all,

I just upgraded my XT3 to an XT5. I was shocked by the size of jpeg files out of the camera.

I shoot street but I never print the content. In 70% of the time I shoot Jpeg, 30% raw.

Now my question is: How much quality I would loose If instead of using L 4:3 I move to M4:3 or S 4:3 ?

I understand the Super Fine -> Fine -> Normal quality relation. What I am not sure will happen is the resolution change.

thanks in advance

thank you for your reply. I am also considering the fuji 60mm f2.4 R macro as it is close as budget.

Hi community,

I have a question about this lens in particular. I plan to buy this manual lens for my xt5 or xpro3 for some macro and mostly portrets - street photography.

did anyone had the chance to test this lens? should I buy it?

thanks
