The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

Just got home from successfully instaling my daughter at NUA :)

Took a bunch of pix to bore you with, but will just start with this one of the old Norwich Union building (which is now flats).

That's a corker of a photo!

Not sure if you tried it but it looks equally good when you spin it around 180 degrees

Thanks, Stuart :thumbs:
I got a bunch taken from both ways lol and darker ones with just the lighting on ;) Might try a toned version of the dark one tomorrow.

Any third-party alternatives to the XF 10-24mm?

Not really, well not as a wide angle zoom with AF anyway.

There's 3rd party wide angle primes though, one being the Samyang 12mm F2 if you don't mind manual focus.

Thanks. I thought my Google-Fu was just weak. :(

There's obviously a reason why Tamron/Sigma aren't (yet?) interested in the X mount...
 
Viltrox has an autofocus lens for Fujifilm and 85mm f1.8. It will be available in October and it will cost $379.

This is a site with a surprisingly long list of Fuji fit lenses some very cheap indeed............... mostly out of china.

Wonder how Viltrox managed it then if Fuji haven't shared the protocols

Reverse engineering, sigma might think its a waste of time when they don't have to do it with e mount. Less development cost.

The viltrox 85 isn't new, it's been around ages. The upcoming 56 is new.

Only viltrox does af, no other 3rd party does.

Thanks - that's useful, although it just confirms the Hobsons Choice on WA zoom. I prefer not to change lenses outside if I can avoid it, whis is why I was drawn to the 10-24.
 
Don`t forget Tokina will be bringing three lenses out (supposedly this year). Just looking on their website, and the do have an adapter for Fuji :) Also a couple of vids using an xt30 with the 11-16

Those are the same lenses as the viltroxes, possibly with better coatings. So not really new.

Anyone wanting to join the Facebook group, can you please answer the question....

I've had two recent applications who haven't bothered so were declined.

To be fair, I just want it for when we go out walking in general, putting in the fishing bag, in the briefcase etc.
