Anyone noticed any distortion with theirs close up?
What type of distortion?

Does it not look like the horizontal lines of the camera curve towards the corners or is it just me?

See attached - I've put a grid overlay on the image that you posted. There is a little distortion, but I wouldn't say that it's excessive.

The more the lens costs the more picky I get haha! I don't have any complaints about my £20 Jupiter 8

At this subject distance variations from a perfectly square camera to subject orientation could explain these results.
Please describe exactly how you set the shot up such that the subject was square to the sensor in three planes.

Not me - I only put the grid overlay on

There was no measuring involved

Picked up a copy of this lens Friday before last. Kind of a impulse/GAS attack. Normally my purchases are thought out as photography funds are very limited. Not to mention I've been satisfied with the XE-1 and 18-55mm kit lens. So far I like the size and focus speed of the lens. Have not had much time to use it.

John, although you never preach in your mod role despite abundant opportunities, it's especially good to see your visual practice in these sets--the coherence of which suggests at least a section of a book. (This is not a hint, just an affirmation.)

Thanks Robert. I make a lot of books for practice in hopes of one day making THE book (once I really edit down and feel I have something complete). I have a lot of room for improvement too, but I am happy with what I am making as well. Thank you for viewing, I appreciate the kind words.

Welp, I've returned to Fuji and was debating between a used 35/1.4 (which I've owned before) or new 35/2 to accompany my X-E2. This thread clinches it. These pictures look great.
jsrockit, what settings do you use for black and white? Are you shooting raw and post-processing, or do you have a custom jpeg setup?

Miserable sucker that I am, I think I am going to actually pay for the optional bayonet hood

I shoot RAW and then PP each individual photo.

I just sent my MM for sensor corrosion inspection, so I'll be carrying my X-Pro1 for a few months. Kind of looking forward to shooting color again. I still have both 35s and can't seem to part with either.

Two nice cameras to choose from
PS: Some nice work on your site too! I don't think I've seen it before either.
