Agreed........ If I can source a good one second hand I will be a happy chap I reckonIts a really nice lens, ridiculous VFM.

Just a simple Fujigraph taken at Whitstable Kent UK of a Seagull standing on a breakwater post.

for looking.,
George.
Great captures. The colours are amazing and the simplicity of number 3 makes it my favouriteDodged the rain and thunderstorms at home last night and went to Meols, a new location for me (after the obligatory seaside fish and chips!)

Just how sharp is that???? It may be expensive but it certainly seems worth it..
So....... I have some money burning a hole in my pocket and I quite fancy a viltrox lens -
Talk to me about the 23/33 and 85.
My head says 85 for portraits of the kids etc plus 85 gives me some extra reach over my 18-55 too.
For those that own any of these, let me know your thoughts on these lenses.
Cheers
I've got both the 33 & 85, very happy with both focus speed & accuracy, as for image quality for the stuff I shoot I am very happy with the results and use the 33 as go to now in the studio.
t4 has the newest set, v is almost the same but I think it's just the bleach missing from the V.Am I right in thinking that the latest film sims are only on t4, pro 3 and X100v?
Wonderful photos. Thanks for sharing.Just a few from today, mostly shot personal family images - I was shooting more for posterity than anything else. This is Agnes, 94 years young, and her dog Panda, and unamused cat 'Puss paws' [wanna argue with a 94yr old over the name?] pictured here sat on the bonnet of my Father in law's 2016 merc - like the cat gave a f**k lol. I would really love to get her outside and do some nice shallow DOF portraits to make her really stand out but, easier said than done, she wasn't in best shape when we arrived. Very frail but still in great spirit. She's a classy lady and I love chatting to her

Ah used to live a bit of cc film sim
I’m about to put up my 56 for sale to fund a Viltrox 85. Had one before and miss it. I’ve messaged the Facebook seller you usedThe 85mm is very nice, it's the best 85 I've used to date at least though I've not had many, the Nikon 85 1.8G and Canon 85 1.8 USM being the only serious ones I could compare to. It's better than both, easily. The only competition for Fuji is the 90F2 and from the comparisons I've seen since it's release, the Viltrox 85 stands up very well. it might not be quite as sharp, or quite as fast on the AF but after recent firmware updates it's close enough to save £300+ on. And that's Brand new Vs used, you don't often see the 90mm for less than 600 even used.
You can have the 85mm and either the 23 or 33mm for the price [if not less than] the 90mm alone. No brainer if ever there was one

I've had loads of stuff off him in the past. Glad it's helping a few of you out, most of his stuff is well below second hand prices.He sent mine of yesterday, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on it
It's about 2 months since I got my hands on an X-T4 and rejoined the Fuji camp. I'm thoroughly enjoying it I must say, There are still some quirks I need to get used to but it's all starting to flow nicely and I'm finding myself using SOOC jpegs a lot which is great because I'm not brilliant at PP and it's always more satisfying to get everything right at the point of capture. My lenses consist of Samyang 12mm, 16-55 2.8, 50-140mm 2.8 and 23mm 1.4. Until last week I had an 18mm f/2 as well. The 16-55 is getting used a lot. It's a bit bulky but you can just put 100% faith in it whatever you're shooting. Fantastic. The 23mm is probably my favourite but gets less use as I rarely take it out for landscape trips but it's a gorgeous thing.
A few from the last few weeks.

He's offering me a sweet deal on the 33, I have to try sell my xc35 first though. I don't mind either way of I can't sell it but I'd like to give that 33 a go.
Nice, I've never used the 56, looks a fine lens but as I like a 35 on apsc as my main I find 50,56 too close to it. I think the 85 is a nice change up.
It's one of my favourite Fuji lenses, just feel I could use more length for my upcoming projects
His name is Lee and the face book page is. Tell him Chris put you on to him.Well I've decided to put my Nikon Z gear up for sale and come back to fuji again!! Just ordered a used XT3 for a decent price so just need some lenses.
I'm thinking a 10-24 as I loved that lens for architecture and landscape along with 56mm for street and portraits.
The viltrox 33 ive also been looking at so if anyone could pm me info of the Facebook details it would be appreciated.
