    Review: Fujifilm X-T2

    Fujifilm, after having been stuck with more or less the same sensor for around 4 years, has been updating their rather robust lineup with the new 24 Megapixel X-Trans III sensor.  First up was last winter’s long-awaited X-Pro2, and then this past summer, Fuji moved to update their extremely popular X-T1 with the new X-T2.…

    Review: Fujifilm Fujinon XF 56mm f/1.2 R

  • Review: Fujifilm Fujinon XC 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS

    The release of the Fujifilm X-M1 (reviewed here) also saw the release of a new kit lens from Fuji.  This new lens, the XC 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS, is unique among kit lenses for a few reasons.  First, it’s one of the very few inexpensive kit lenses that starts with a super-wide focal length.  The 16-50mm…
