anyone using the fuji 60 as an every day lens?

[back alley]

i know...an odd focal length for a edc lens but since grabbing it out of the bag awhile back i can't seem to 'see' in any other way.
this is a bit disappointing as i have been working with the 16 for a long time and producing nothing of any great worth.

I've often used the Fujinon XF 60mm f2.4 R Macro lens for everyday walk-about photography; it's great!

Some people think the auto-focus is slow on this lens but I don't have a problem with it on my X-Pro3.

All the best,
Mike

I’d much rather use the 60 than the 16 myself. That said I sold my 60mm because I tend to use the 56mm more and my friend needed a Fuji macro. The 60mm used to be horribly slow until the 24mp and 26mp bodies. Now it’s usable for non macro photos. There’s certainly no shame in using it everyday until you feel like changing.

I seem to prefer the wider approach. The 18 lives on my XP1, it used to be on the E3 but I swapped the 18-55 from the XP1 and liked the versatility better. Now I have the best of all.

I have the original three Fuji lenses, which I bought with or soon after I got me X-Pro1. More recently I have added the 10-24mm, which I use predominantly for landscapes. Of the primes I use most the 35mm, then 18mm and finally the 60mm. I like and appreciate them all, it is just that my photography is more suited to the wide to normal focal lengths. Below are two examples with the 60mm.
