Congratulations - it is a sweet camera. Did you get the other 2 lenses?

 

[Pelao]

Wow, how did you grab that shot, considering the lethargic AF?

Congratulations. Enjoy.

 

[Shashin]

You need a pet.

Yes, my dealer was so "kind" to supply me with the full set, including the optional grip which in my view is highly recommended.

I do not have one, I will try to borrow.

Once upon a time, that strange object on the right was used to smoke opium, I was told...

Nice smooth bokeh. Is that wide open?

I guess others know what it is, but I don't recognize it at all.

Nice shot Ario.
Can you comment on the cameras handling and performance.
How is the focus speed and accuracy?
Looks to be a great travel kit, finally a replacement for my Contax G system.

Yes, the lens was fully open at f:1.4.

I will use it for a couple of days before making any comment.
I have first to familiarize in order to remove most of the operator's error.
This is my first Fuji after about 15 years and at least the dual viewfinder and the associated focussing need some practice.
I will be back.

Ario, that is a "Leica'ish" shot if ever I saw one! That lens is superb, the 60 macro is also considered to be very, very good.

is that a bong?

 

[Ario Arioldi]

is that a bong?

Yes, I think so: I found it in China 30 years ago.

 

[jonoslack]

I think it's a bong as well . . we're going to China on Monday - I'll see if they've got any left!

Ok, this is my first post here. The picture of happy gardenner and his wife was taken with 40+ years old lens. Very appreciate CCs.

What adapters do you have for the camera? made by?

 

[teeraash]

Summicron 50mm f2.0 with Kipon lens adaptor. The adaptor can adjust at infinity and is well constructed.
