I'm making a trial run- picked up the XE-2 and 35mm f/1.4. I also picked up some adapters to use my legacy glass with it as well. If I like the system, the XT-10 looks interesting as a next body.

I got the camera yesterday, lens and adapters should show up today.

If I like it- I'd probably add the 18mm f/2 and the 56mm f/1.2 to my legacy glass.

The new Fuji X-T10 looks interesting. I've been eyeing an x100t or S for a while. The T10 looks like it would be similar while still having the option to shoot with something besides the built in fixed lens of the X100's. Fuji makes some small primes it may be something I do in the near future but it would be more of a second camera/casual to replace my G15

well I can pick up the fisheye... they have the 10mm 2.8 wide angle... the wide angle zoom, the normal 2.8 zoom and the tele 2.8 zoom. They have primes in the 24/35/50/85/135 equivalent to the canon glass 1.4/1.4/1.4/1.2/2 respectively

I mean I really can switch and have all my same glass...

besides 300mm 2.8.

Love their glass lineup I really do.

I got 14mm f2.8, 23mm f1.4, 35mm f1.4, 56mm f1.2, 55-200mm, 50-140mm f2.8 OS and looking forward to the newer 16mm f1.4 and 90mm f2.:) All are excellent lenses and love those aperture rings.

OT - Been shooting little league with XT-1 and 50-140mm and it is working out quite nice. Hope the new AF in new FW helps more. When Fuji releases 100-400mm f5.6, I will get it as 140mm is quite short for my needs.

Just wish they had a 300mm 2.8 equal

The XT-1 makes it attractive for me, not that I plan on switching over. Grab a 56mm and 50-140 and I'm good to go :)

56 1.2=Primo lens. I'm on the verge on a Lumix 42.5 F1.2 which is maybe close.

Yep. Even makes nice 13 point star bursts at smaller apertures. I hope you get that Lumix 42.5, cause I want to see the images you get with that lens, MM!

I don't see why I don't move over. I think it's about money at this point... hard for me to take the loss selling and spending premium money on the XT-1 w/ it's stable of $999 lenses.

I know the feeling, but it was worth the move, although I'm hanging onto my 5DIII, 70-200 f2.8II, TS-E17, TS-E24II, TS-E90, 24 f1.2I. The Fujinon 55-140 bokeh is to crazy for me, I just don't like it with a lot of backgrounds. The 90mm looks interesting. The 16-55 is killer, as is the 56. It's nice to have less weight to carry around. The files are really nice. Oh, and it's nice to have a kit that is weather resistant (X-T1 with the 16-55).

Fuji frequently offers instant rebate savings, so I've never paid retail for one of their lenses, just wait patiently for a rebate to pop up. Right now they offer $150.00 off the 56, and with 4% cash back at B&H, you can pick it up for about $800, which is a steal compared to the Canon 85 1.2L at $2,000, and Fuji's quality is right on par.

Fuji's 35 1.4 is available for under $450, which is even a bigger steal. Hey, I'm not trying to tempt you, just sayin.....;-)a
