Fuji X-E1/X-E2/X-E2S/X-E3 Owners Thread

jeff where did you get the lens mate from?

and it was just £40 posted

 

[R.Y.K. LEE]

I shelled out for the Lensmate, and got stung for VAT, but it's superbly made and contoured just right.

I got the Lensmate soft releases, but on their website, it's saying that the X-E2 thumb grips are discontinued and out of stock. I decided to order the cheapo one from Amazon, from the link in an earlier reply/post.

anyone here with he 14mm ? looking to be persuaded into buying one !

 

[Stephen L]

anyone here with he 14mm ? looking to be persuaded into buying one !

Yes. Optically brilliant, weight is just right. Beware of build tolerances which means that some have either a tight or, more commonly, loose aperture ring. At the second attempt I got a good 'un and I'm keeping it!

 

[justa1972]

thanks - better ask that as will be buying 2nd hand (hopefully from here)

 

[justa1972]

How close can it focus ? any you care to show off ?

 

[Alastair]

anyone here with he 14mm ? looking to be persuaded into buying one !

Yes, don't use it a lot but it's an excellent lens and a convenient wider focal length.

 

[justa1972]

humm - I'd need to use it a lot as it would be the most expensive lens that I've ever bought - normally only bought kit lenses

 

[AdzJackson]

Both taken with my X-E1, lovely lens and it's the one Fuji lens I have that I've never been tempted to sell on!

Goes down to 0.18metre, but I've not used it so close (yet).
