fuji 16 & 56?

[back alley]

16 and 56 are too far apart for me.
I can see
someone who favors wide choosing 16 and 35
Someone who favors longer using 35 and 56.

Joe, if you let us have three, then "all the above" would make a nice trio.

make it so...

I could live with 16/35/56 or my personal preference 16/23/56.

I’ve got a weird 2 lens setup. 35 f2 and 50 f2. The X100F is my third lens. Anything wider or longer is a zoom and rarely used. Would love to see a 70mm fuji f2 WR come out too.

No, I couldn't.

For one thing, they are too large for me to use on a regular basis.

Second, the OVF's primary advantage (being able to see what's outside the frame lines) is compromised.

And, it limits where I would have to stand for the majority of my work.

I second Willie's second here- the OVF is an important factor for me too in why lenses need to be compact. Given that Fuji have made the OVF a feature of the X Pro 2, it is important they continue to consider that feature in designing at least some of their new lens offerings.

for the next bit, my bag will house the 18, 23 and 50 f2 lenses.
as an aside, the new nylon domke 5xb is a pleasure to use.

Those little fuji-"crons" are sweet but lack the special look of the original 1.4/35 and f1.4/23.
I still have one fuji combo the xe1/27mm.... I kept these for carry ability.
Still,... I kick myself for not keeping the f1.4/35mm instead.
It's still THE reason to buy into the fuji-verse.

i'd go with the 23/50...
i just bought a domke 5xb to carry with the 3 fujicrons and xe3 as a small kit.

yeah, i'm leaning with the 23/50 too but i keep gravitating to the 50mm FOV hence why I have my eyes on the 35mm 1.4 as well.

40mm is a little odd FOV for myself, tried liking the 27mm on the X-T2 but found it challenging to use as it wasn't wide or long enough for my need.
Giving this FOV another try on the A7 with the Voigtlander 40mm 1.4 though, will see how this goes and maybe I'll get another 27mm later on.

Yes, absolutely.

I find the 27mm is great as a one size fits all lens, and would pair it either with an 18mm or the 60mm macro (versatile as macro and telephoto), depending on whether I will be in tight urban and indoor spaces or want potential vistas. I have a 14mm on the way which I expect will replace the 18mm, together with the 27mm, and a super light walkaround pair.

I’ll quote myself here and say I could do most of my photography with the 35mm f2 only.
