Title: I did it.
Post by: blacktailcody on June 17, 2015, 08:02:58 AM: I've been looking at the Fuji XT-1 for half a year now and I finally pulled the trigger. The camera, a 23mm 1.4f lens and a Rokinon 12mm f2 lens are on their way.

We expect a full write up and lots of sample images. 8)

I believe this Fuji has an APS-C sized sensor, so that 12mm lens will have an equivalent 19mm field of view (12x1.6=19).

Next up, the 56mm f/1.2 :drool:
