Can anyone attest to the greatness of the Touit 32mm 1.8 for the Fuji mount? I have the Zeiss 50mm macro and it is stunning. I have the 35mm Fuji lenses, but something about Touit gives me g.a.s.
 
It's a sweet lens, equivalent to the Fuji 35/1.4 in image quality IMO. Not great wide open but improves by f/2.2. Same AF speed and sound as the Fuji lens. Fuji's 35/1.4 lens hood is better, smaller, Zeiss hood is too big. The Zeiss is kinda hard to line up when putting on the camera because it uses a blue dot that's sometimes difficult to see well. It's overpriced but that's par for the course with the Zeiss name.

I have both the f/1.4 and f/2 Fuji 35's as well as the Zeiss 32. All are excellent. The one I use the most is the 35/2. That lens has faster, quieter AF, it costs less, it's smaller, weather sealed and it seems sharper--to my eye anyway.
 
Dogman, right about the blue dot/line up, same on the Touit 50mm macro. I just got the 27mm in addition to the 35 f2 and 1.4, Enough standard equivs, but if a used Touit comes my way, I won't resist.
