Thx for the correction ... my usual copy & paste error for getting the initial base layout ...
As far as AF goes, it's difficult to evaluate this cross-system, really. The X-H2's AF is one of the weaker kinds among modern cameras - it's not a sports camera to start with.
STM motors, as found in the 56mm f/1.7 X, aren't super fast to start with. While I wouldn't use this combo for sports, it's fast enough IMHO.
I don't know the AF capabilities of the Z50. I can only cross guess from the Z7 where I'm currently testing some Viltrox lenses.
Again, the Z7 (mk I) isn't the latest and greatest in terms of AF, for sure. It struggles in low light, for instance.
In bright light, the Viltox STM feels again - fast enough.
If you want me to compare them to the benchmark - like Sony lenses with quad-linear AF motors, it's slow. But that's something you can't expect from a very affordable lens, really.
