Hey Fuji-folks,

after two year of reading reviews and tests, I decided to become a member of "the family" and buy a Fujifilm X- T10.

Due to my small budget I will start with the following lens line-up for street, journey, people, nature and architecture-photography (and will stepwise complete / replace with original Fuji FX-lenses):

 

Samyang 12 mm f/2.0 (architecture, landscape)

Fujinon FX 18-55 mm f/2.8-4 ("always-on lens")

Adapted Konica Hexanon AR Pancake 40 mm f/1.8 = FL equivalent 60 mm (street, portrait)

Adpated AGFA Color 50 mm f/1.4 = FL equivalent 75 mm (portrait)

Adapted Minolta MD Macro 35-70 mm f/3.5 = FL equivalent 53-107 mm (landscape, portait, macro)

 

I'm also fancy with

Adapted Tamron Macro SP 90 mm f/2.5 = FL equivalent 135 mm (landscape, portait, macro)

 

Later, I consider to complete with

Fujinon FX 35 mm f/1.4 (or WR f/2?)

Fujinon FX 56 mm f/1.2

Fujinon FX 55-200 mm f/3.5-4.8

 

What do you think about that line-up?

Thank you for your thoughts and advises.

Regards,

Stefan.

nice line up of lenses.

 

I especially like the Agfa but I am not sure I understand the Minolta zoom, always very complicated to operate the zoom AND focus manually.  

 

I am not big at using adapted lenses ( but I have a few) but  if and when I do I tend to stick to what these days are being called “ primes”.

 

The 40mm Hexanon was one of the first pancakes of when I was young. I don’t really think that there is much intrinsic value to a pancake but they are on fashion.

 

The Tamron SP 90mm macro was always a lens that I loved, great shape, size and performance.

 

As for your future lenses, do no discard the 50-230mm without having tried it, read this. Good luck!
