Fuji No questions asked - X-Pro1 for me

[Kafn8td]

Hello, I just picked up a new X-Pro1 with the 35 1.4. Back in my days of shooting film, I loved Fuji. I have always used Canon's, but got tired of lugging the weight. Sold off my 5D, 7D and everything associated with them.

So far I am very impressed with the little Fuji and the lens is awesome! Looking forward to the release of the 56mm, I just hope I can wait, the 60 looks really tempting.

Playing with Light Room, testing Photo Ninja and Silkypict to see which one I like better...

If you do macro the 60 is good to add to your bag while you wait for the 56 that said, i don't do macro and will hold out for the 56 in the meanwhile you should add that 23 and 14

Lovely!

Although I have the X-E1, I love the 35mm lens a LOT. Welcome and have fun. Here's two of my favorite pseudo-macro shots with this combo. Your shot made me think of them, lol.

Here's the 60mm @ f4 doing the bokeh thing.

Thanks for the input. Very happy with my purchase so far. I think when the lakes and rivers freeze I will miss the 7D + 400 for the Eagles, but I needed a change.

A little more definition in the background will make the first picture nicer IMHO.
