    Check out the reviews of the Mitakon 35 f0.95 on the BHPhoto product page:

    Especially read 'Not really f/0.95' and then 'I stand corrected'.

    qwertz7 got a reaction from elmacus in X-Pro2 Hands on   
    Hi all,
     
    i was lucky to get my hands on an X-Pro2 today at a special Fuji Event in a Camera Store in Vienna and i wanted to share my impressions so far:
    AF-Stick works really nice. AF seems to be improved. I tried it with the 35mm 1.4, which is supposed to be not he quickest lens and it focused immediately, no hunting, even in the dark corners of the room. This was the biggest surprise for me. The ISO Dial, which was the second thing i was curious about works quite well. For me better than on my X-T1 as you can turn it with your right Hand and i found it easier to pull it than to press the button on the X-T1.
    Grip felt nice, a bit less grip than the X-T1 one, bit ok (big hands)
    The viewfinder is as known smaller than the X-T1, this would be my biggest concern as i love the viewfinder of the X-T!.
    i didn't have an SD Card with me, so i could only check the quality on the back screen. did 6400 RAW and could hardly find any grain.
    I wanted to wait for the X-T2 but now i'm not sure :-)
    For me its Bigger Viewfinder+Tiltable Screen vs  Af Stick, Dual SD, left Hand EVF (and better Quality, faster AF over X-T1)
     
    They also had the 100-400 lens there. It'S really big. I wouldn't want to use it on this nice compact system.
     
    cheers, Tom

    I just installed and tested the software, nothing much to report other than yes, it works as advertised. Have to remember to change the USB mode to PC SHOOT in the XT1 settings menu, and that's about it. The connection seems pretty robust, switching the camera off disconnects, but switching back on reconnects immediately. Fire the camera from the onscreen button or the shutter release, either way your image appears in the Lightroom window pretty quickly. No live view. 
     
    There was no word from Fuji as to why the download link isn't working for Mac Users, all they did was very kindly send me the file, but the news on FujiRumors indicates the link will be fixed soon.
     
    I should add these are the instructions from the installer, note that the images are saved only on the computer, not on the camera memory card:
     
    Taking Pictures with Lightroom®.
    Be sure to update the camera firmware to the latest version (in the case of the X-T1, version 3.11 or later), available from the following website:
        http://www.fujifilm.com/support/digital_cameras/
     
    Select PC SHOOT AUTO.
    Select PC SHOOT AUTO for USB MODE in the camera SET-UP menu as described below. Do NOT connect the USB cable until this step is complete. Connect the camera.
    Connect the camera to the computer using the USB cable and turn the camera on.  Activate tethered shooting. *The camera does not leave a image copy onto the memory card in the camera.
