Hey Paul, Just came across your video, really lovely shots. I wanted to comment because I am considering running a similar setup on my X-E4 and wanted to know your general thoughts on using the 60mm as a walkaround "50 f2" stand-in? Thanks.
Hi Lucas, thank you for your kind comment 👍 I have had the 60mm for many years now and found it to be my most versatile Fujifilm lens, and is a great walk-around lens, so long you don’t attach the gigantic lens hood that comes with it that is 😊 I did buy the 50mm F2 but sold it a few months later as the look and feel of the images were not to my liking. The 60mm however with all its ‘quirks’ is a super lens producing unique character in the images, it’s a lens I will never sell. Thanks again 😎
@@paulappleby2729 the hood from the 35mm 1.4 apparently also fits the 60mm so that could be a more manageable alternative. Same as you I didn't gel with the 50mm F2, the focal length was too close to a 50mm equivalent
@@CianMcsweeneyappreciate the heads up on the 35mm F1.4 lens hood 👍Im currently looking to get that lens very soon and will see if it fits, will update when I do, take care 🙌
