I'm having a few troubles...
I think the 23mm is too big on the xe2, I might replace it with the 18mm or the 27mm, or maybe just the 35mm and shoot differently, especially as I'm not enjoying the 23mm'd depth of field, probably since I'm comparing it to a 35mm 1.4, where you get width and shallow depth of field, comparing the 23mm against the sony 35 1.4 (I know it's ridiculously more expensive...) but the deph of field seems to be more equivalent to f2.8 than to f2 (maybe 2.2/2.5), you can certainly get
Bokeh, but you have to get in quite close, so I feel the 35mm might work better for this kind of shooting anyway
All I want is a true 35mm f2, or 35mm f2 equivalent- maybe mitakon will make a 23mm 0.95 that will solve all my problems, or maybe sony will release a successor to the rx1, or someone will release a 35 f2 for e mount...
The quality of the rear screen...compared to the sony a7 it's rubbish, and then comparing the a7 to a canon 5d3/6d the a7 screen looks crap and the xe2 looks even worse. Is the xt1 xt10 any better? The first time I used the xe2 I was expecting the worst after seeing them on the screen but was pleasantly surprised by the quality when I got them onto the computer, but I want to feel confident I've got the shot before I get home, the bad colours and the inability to really show the full dynamic range of the shot make the camera unsuitable for me
Auto iso in manual mode. I'm used to the sony's ability here, I can set aperture and shutter speed, and auto iso controls exposure, which I can bias by using exposure comp, afaik the fuji won't do this, so I mainly shoot fully manual but in the fuji world it's an utter pain to have to press a button to then adjust iso, with sony I have it mapped to the wheel, instant control, and the iso reading doesn't obscure the entire screen
Evf is worlds better than the xe1 but still isn't as good as the a7, especially in low light where the xe2 completely falls apart and the a7 holds up, but I remember the a7s I used being so good it made the a7 look broken by comparison. Is the xt1 any better in low light? Or is it just the same evf but magnified a bit
I don't think I like the shutter wheel as much as I thought I would, admittedly I have 200,000 shots with the dial based 5d and a7 but I just can't seem to find a groove with the shutter wheel- maybe the xt1 can have shutter control on a dial? The xt1 has 3 dials- can you get it to shutter on the front dial, iso on the back and aperture on the lens?
I think I can visualise my perfect camera system, and it's frustrating that it doesn't exist aha
