Fuji could choose to retain the magic if they made a MK2 but probably it'd mean more girth to house more powerful motors. And if it becomes too girthy, why not go for the upcoming 33/1.0 lens?
I think
Fuji would be in a good place to create more magic lenses instead of computer-designed hyper performers, because clinicality of the Fuji lenses was one of the (albeit tiny) reasons why I went with
Leica M system instead. Make character and WR the priority, AF speed secondary, and there could be some good times ahead. Certainly the 33/1 should be sexy somehow to really be a good competition methinks...
The difference between 33/1 and 35/1.4 is not that great, in DOF. Not that great at all. If the 33/1 doesn't have character to it, it might be DOA. Or we can alternatively consider the 33/1 as the Mk2 regardless of character if it happens to have faster AF and WR.
