I think it really depends on what you want the lens for:-
F1.4 sharpest IQ (possibly the sharpest of all the Fuji primes), and it's got F1.4
F2, not as good in the IQ stakes (but still good, there isn't a really a bad Fuji prime, just ones with faster/shower AF), but faster AF and Weather Resistant and more compact.
Personally I love the F1.4, it's my most used lens.
Have you shot with the F2, personally to compare with the F1.4?

The article mentions a Facebook page. Anyone on here who uses that, who could have a look what it says - if anything?

Are you watching Greg Wallace in the pasta factory?
They have a camera that can scan 34,000 kernels of wheat a minute and then reject the duds.
That's some gear!
Getting the Fuji urge again. Have a wedding coming up in 2 weeks so will need to act fairly fast if I do decide to "see the light"

Can't say I like the guy but these programmes he's doing on the manufacturing of our food are quite educational. The quantities and volumes in last night's episode were just colossal.Not a fan of the grocer but find most food programmes fascinating so put up with his inanity!
In the past a Fuji 'S' has stood for 'second', as in second generation camera variant, eg X100 -> X100S -> X100T (third) and no guessing for the 'F' variant, but it was also used on X-E2, the S version (still a current camera) has little or no improvement over a firmware upgraded X-E2
X-T2S, its just a made up name at this stage it could be an S or even an X-T3, the rumour sites need to keep promoting this sort of stuff to attract advertising revenue and other pay per click type links. Personally I don't think we will see an updated X-T2 for quite a while yet, I suspect that an X-E3 will be next.

IF the next generation of X bodies will have IBIS, will they automatically disable the lenses' OIS systems? I know that the Nikanon stabilisation was in lens because that's the only way to keep the image stable through a "proper" OVF but with EVFs, either IBIS or ILIS can keep things in the EVF relatively stable.
TBH, I'd be a little surprised if Fuji went IBIS since they have already invested a lot (as have their users!) in ILIS lenses.
Yes. It could gave been a second. I was a bit overwhelmed with the numbers being thrown out and my brain was getting addled. Even when I'd posted the comment I was still thinking it should have been per second.Are you sure that is not a second? 34000 a minute is only 566 a second which is about the number of grains across that belt and they were going past at far more than 1 per second.

It's called old age. Ask @Nod he'll tell you!
I bend my knee to you, Sir!At 82 I qualify for the pensioner high table myself.
Which one?At (just!) 54, my problem isn't old age, it's the hole in my head!
Just the one knee though...
Which one?
It's OK. I have full movement in it - far more than most patients get. I go out on the bike 3 or 4 times a week so am building leg strength, but it takes time to overcome the operation. My knee is a lot hotter than the other one, and that's my body fighting to heal all the damage. Metabolism is all over the place! Will take months to settle down. I'm getting private physio which is helping. But I'm winning, which is the main thing.The unnatural one!
Hope the knee's continuing to improve BTW. Takes a while, I understand.

Looks like you've morphed into plodAnyway shouldn't we be talking about Fuji X-T series cameras, before the forum police intercept!!!

Great pose!Just a simple Macro/Close Up shot of a Fly. The shot was taken in my barn and the fly was in actual fact hanging upside down on the top edge of a window but I thought it looked better to present it with the fly the right way up so to speak.
