Having sold off my 18-55 2.8-4 Fuji for the sigma 18-50 2.8 I couldn’t be happier with the Sigma. I think image quality and build is equal to if not better than the Fuji. The 100-400 would be interesting to see compared to the Fuji both their 100-400 as well as the Fuji 70-300.
Hi just watched video good video but, When updating Sigma firmware, you do it same as with a Fuji lens on an SD card through camera. The Dock is only for L Mount lenses so that is not a required purchase (and may not even work). I updated my 56mm F/1.4 sigma on an SD card through camera as I have updated all my Fuji lenses kind regards
You know, Fujifilm keeps tempting me. It's like a very slow burn. Year after year, it just gets a little hotter. The Sigma 100-400 looks damned good. My potential next lens purchase: the Olympus 100-400. Narrower AOV than the Sigma on the Fuji body. However, if you crop in to 20Mpx on the Fuji, you pretty much have a MFT frame. I wonder if the electronic shutter on the Fuji, in crop mode, is as fast as the Olympus sensor? I look forward to your test on the GFX! BTW The Fujinon 23/1.4, and the Fujinon 100-400, are also made in Japan - I just checked.

Yes I did the same. Although lacking stabilization, I've found the 18-50mm Sigma to be better overall. The size/weight makes it a good travel lens too

I have this lens arriving today' Sigma 100 to 400 for my X-T5 I also have the X-T 20. Thank you for the review.
Good choice!
I updated my sigma 56 straight from the X-T3 body. I think you don't need a dongle to upgrade the software on rest of fuji-x sigma lenses.

Fuji should renew the 23mm F2. It's a crime not to have an extraordinary Fujicron in that focal length (+ urgently renew the 18mm f2 and the 18-55).
You read my mind 😂😂😂
Wish the 100-400 was straight f5.6, I hate variable aperture‘s
That’s actually a good point. Hopefully they see this comment. Perhaps optically it’s more difficult to design?
It can be done but it will be bigger both in size and price
