Ooh, can we have a TC as well, if so mine would be X-T3 1.4TC and the mighty 50-140 covers everything I need from a lens these days
I guess, it's still one lens
If I could only have one lens one camera atm it would be the XH1 and the 16-55 I just sold I know that's odd but it's a lens I would have kept if I had no other choice. But sold it to give the 16 1.4 a try and will add something soon to compliment that. Heading into Autumn I want something brighter really, I wouldn't rule out buying another 16-55 at some point.
I guess if you could only have one lens, then it makes sense to go for one that is versatile. Think I would be the same, even though a 23 or 35mm would excite me more.

Apart from a huge price difference, whats the advantage of choosing a 16-55 over the 18-55 I have the 18-55 but haven't used it yet, bought it for when we are on holidays.
Edit. Just read a review, the 16-55 is much better, I may have to invest more now...........

Thanks for the mini review in plain English @Mr Perceptive so for now I will stick with what I have, give it a good run out and use it in anger in Snowdonia in a couple of weeks and see how it performs rather than just swap it for something that probably gives the same IQ at a much greater price.
Never had any issues with mine and it was one of the early ones.
Seriously?! Just replace "X-T2" with any product in the world, you'd never buy anything againTried posting a link but didn't work. Just Google X-T2 problems.
Sorry - I put X-E2 initially!
It is Wales so at a guess, we will probably see some wet stuff

It would be great if when people posted, they could mention lens and body combo!
I was tempted by this but having done research this model seems to suffer from some problems.

OMG I love this 16mm f1.4 as was shooting an outdoor gig and doing manual focus, so a pit stop now as out for a jazz gig tonight.
Really like the first one, very imposing angleFuji X-E3 with a Nikon 16mm f2.8 fisheye

Really nice lens to use, only have it a couple hours but I know when a lens is just right. I'll have fun with this one. It's about the perfect size and weight on the XH1 too
Nothing special here, just testing in the garden between showers - X-H1 + 16mm 1.4

And the obligatory Cat shot, I don't feel a lens has been Christened properly until I've annoyed her a bit for some testers, this was at 1.4

These look better on Flickr, have noticed this more so lately. In particular the cat image, if you click through it displays better the sharpness of the lens at 1.4 on Scout's face

Three very nice Fujigraphs, particularly liking the leaf shot.

IMO these are cracking shots for a first test, I will have to wait till tomorrow to put some up as now the batteries are charged I`m off gigging with mine but I`m sure they will be good.
Just a simple candid street style Fujigraph taken at London UK of a young lady sitting in a park sketching.
I'm also working on a personal project called Faceless and this will be one of the shots included.

Very nice candid street style Fujigraph, well seen and nicely presented.

@Al1944 I've had an X-T2 since day one of release, no issues, other than when I dropped it and caused a crack in the sensor!!! (which Fujifilm fixed free of charge, despite me telling them what happened!) Its never missed a beat, and has never suffered from lock-ups. A great piece of kit.
200mm F2!? wow, how do you find that beast?
I just rumble around in the bag and there it is.
Joking aside its a bit cumbersome and obviously quite heavy, but I guess that's only to be expected, but it performs really well even wide open, the focus speed is excellent ( not that I use auto focus that much), optically its on the next level with no fringing and it easily surpasses the performance of anything else I have ever used in that equivalent focal length outside of medium or large format. All in all its pretty good.
