jamesbernard got a reaction from Leoncius in What lenses should Fuji release next?
I'd love a 8-500mm f/2 zoom, but maybe that's just me...

Heres a few more random shots with the Velvet 56mm
F/1.6
F/2
F/4
All of these are SOOC from a boring day at work.
Not a big surprise but the Lensbaby 56mm is definitely a specialty lens, and I think there will probably be very very few people who will put it to good use. $500 for such an atypical piece of glass is a lot for something that will probably be collecting dust most of the time unless you LOVE soft focus and macro work, which is definitely not many of us.
The 56mm f/1.2 is great, but I like the OOF areas better with the 35 than either of the other lenses honestly. Anyone else want to share some photos or opinions feel free.

jamesbernard reacted to alex.reusch in XF56 vs XF90 - Your thoughts apprecaited
I own the 56APD and love it! For me, it is the perfect focal length for doing portraits and do prefer it over the 90mm. The APD is working great and I adore its smoothness. I also use the 35mm and 23mm, if I don't have the distance for the 56. So I don't see the 90 being that useful for studio portraits... Maybe for outside shooting sessions?

jamesbernard reacted to mfstrollo in Which 3 primes combo is your ideal setup?
14 - because speed isn't as important at that angle. (I'd rather pick the 10-24)
23 - because it's the only TRUE prime on the list. Sorry. I took too much math.
90 - because I can't always get close enough.
