Fuji - I'm in love - Klaus - 09-06-2012 Perfect - a X-E1 without this senseless optical VF and a 14mm prime. I'm a happy camper!

Market price -25% (=1630EUR) as a package or -20% per item (=1200EUR for the X-Pro1, 440EUR for the 18mm f/2). Fuji - I'm in love - Brightcolours - 09-06-2012 The 14mm is not a pancake, and Fuji claims sharpness from corner to corner. If they also have distortion under control, this should be a very nice lens.

Given the size can _comparatively_ low speed of the 14mm they should not let loose altogether. 900$ is also not cheap. Fuji - I'm in love - Guest - 09-06-2012 They should have made a 16-50 standard zoom instead of 18-55. Fuji - I'm in love - Guest - 09-06-2012 Do you think the evf and auto focus will be better on the e-1 ? When I played with an xpro-1 in a shop the evf refresh rate (indoors) was quite annoying. I actually have high hope for the evf on the e-1 since folks are claiming it is the same one in the nex-6...

[/quote] Yes, always a bit late on spotting the trends, that is the 24mm trend... Canon 15-85, Zeiss 16-80, Olympus 12-60 & 12-50, Panasonic 12-35, Canon 24-105, Nikon 24-120, Canon/nikon/tamron/sigma 24-70 & so on... Nice aperture, though. Fuji - I'm in love - Rover - 09-06-2012 Well, they must've deduced that most people will be getting an UWA lens anyways. Hardly anybody I know is content with having a 24mm equivalent. Also having the kit zoom start at 16mm would've hurt the sales of the 14mm. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Fuji - I'm in love - Guest - 09-06-2012 [quote name='Rover' timestamp='1346953156' post='19965'] Well, they must've deduced that most people will be getting an UWA lens anyways.

Fuji - I'm in love - Sylvain - 09-06-2012 same here, I do appreciate those 4mm extra <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Every extra mm is a chance not to have to switch lenses. Overlap is good. |
