New here, Formily a canon shooter, Changing to fuji!

[BB70Chevelle]

New to the site and to Fuji, I formily shot with all canon gear (7D, 24-70 F2.8 VC, 70-200 F2.8 VC, 100-400L) but haven't had much time to shoot lately so I sold off all my gear a few months back only to find out last week my wife is pregnant with our first children(having twins!!!) So I'm looking to purchase into a new system. Prior to selling everything I was considering changing over to Fuji so this seemed like a perfect chance to do that.

 

Having never shot with Fuji or a mirrorless camera I'm sure there is going to be a lot I need to learn and get use to but, right now that plan is to start out with an x-e2s and 35 F2.(unless I come across a great deal on a X-T1 due to my budget) From my Canon kit you can see I was much more of a zoom user but I want to explore primes especially with the new borns coming and figure this is a good starting point and I'll likely add the 56mm to my kit at some point then once they get running around I definitely want the 100-400. That was by far my most used lens with Canon.

 

My biggest concern coming from a DSLR is going to be getting use to the auto focus speed of these cameras. Ive been told Sony is faster but the lenses Fuji offers and at a much more affordable price it has me set on them, I just hope I'm not going to end up being disappointed and wishing that I went back to a DSLR (7D II or D7200).
