I have this lens and there is a lot to love. It is an absolute joy to use. It just looks and feels made to a super high standard. Optics are obviously great too. Sharp even wide open and it doesn't do anything wrong. The only negative I have is that I'm not always loving the bokeh with busy backgrounds. For that reason I actually prefer to use my cheap 7artisans 25mm F1.8 in situations where soft and pleasant background blur is what I want (which is quite often). Fact is that I often find myself liking the output from the optically and mechanically inferior lens more (I know it's not a 100% apples to apples comparison due to the slight difference in focal length but I think it's close enough to be an alternative). In that perspective the 8x price difference makes the Voigtländer a luxury item to me. Worth it to some if they have the cash. And I'm a bit on the fence with regards to whether or not I really belong in that group. But I sure do love the feel of that manual focus ring and the accurate markings on it.

its a question of what you need. F1.4 is nice; it's optically better? If you like the aperture; please go for it. For me I still love the TTartisan F1.8. Because I could shoot closer.

The biggest problem with this camera is the price. In Malaysia, it is going for RM7999 (Body only). Whereas the X-T5 only costs a little bit more RM8500 (Body only). You get a better battery, weather resistance, dual SD card & etc for just an extra RM500. At this point, the X-T50 makes no sense unless you are looking for a slightly smaller & lighter body.

I think Fuji could have just removed the IBIS and marked down the price a little. Really hope that the rumored upcoming X-E5 will be more reasonably priced.

Don't take life too seriously. I am with you on the Price and Film Simulation dial with the X-T50; Fujifilm as a company have always take risk and try to gain reach a bigger audience. Most of the time they do well and there are also time like X-pro3 and X-F10 which didn't appeal to the market. As for X-T50, they have succeeded in reaching the younger and new to the brand. ( and thus buying more new lenses) As for mature photographer there are still many other Fujifilm options for us. Cheers mate and have a great weekend.

@JackBurton-qp4hc2 ай бұрын
It isn't the entry level, that is the X-T30 II It looks like a classic SLR, you clearly haven't had one. The X-Txx has never had WR, it is a differentiator, as is the EVF, dials, dual card slots etc. It isn't meant to be paired with large lenses, size is literally the point of it being smaller. The FS dial is not aimed at you. The selling point of marketing the Fuji to new users is Film Simulations. Size, weight and cost of the X-T5 does not matter to *YOU* it does to *OTHERS*

I do not like zoom Lenses ! The new Fuji GF 500mm is compact and light weight, but the Fuji GFX cameras are big and heavy (like some Canon and Nikon cameras !!!), the Fuji GF 500mm is equivalent to 400mm in full frame, so not much reach, but you can crop a lot you use 100 megapixels ! I use the excellent Sony A7RIVA with 61 megapixel and the excellent Sigma 500mm 5.6 DG DN OS Sports. Fuji X-H2 + 150-600mm = 2320 g, Sony A7RVA + Sigma 500mm = 2035 g, Fuji GFX 100SII = 2258 g.

Thanks man. I just received this lens today. I am enjoying it so far, but have only shot around the house and yard. No spectacular or particularly interesting shots so far. However, the focusing has been mostly quite easy (I'm a newbie) and most of my shots have been quite sharp. I was wanting a really small, light and sharp lens for my T5. Something with magic. Your photos are amazing and inspiring (and dare I say), magical I'll keep going and use this lens over the next weeks to see if this manual lens can be the EDC lens I have been waiting for.
