Both of you are right. Life. E : -)
-
Not even at AF continuous mode?
-
Not yet there? I see it as the most significant difference to tap to focus as for instance.
-
As for instance other than the one from Peau Productions? Do you know other makers?
-
Can you add a test sample along the wide end of that 18-35mm f/1.8 please?

+2 stops as @ntblowz posted. Here's an interesting article on topic: http://www.dvxuser.com/articles/article.php/21 -
Right Don : ) But don't stress the codec too much or there's no bit rate to handle it. Know your tool : ) That video up there sold me, among others even despite that orange & teal : -D

Thanks guys. here we have some interesting video samples on both zooms and primes from same shooter: As well, the 35mm f/1.4 and 16-55mm f/2.8 going on AF from an usual suspect:

Exactly my feelings since X-H1 4K transferred then to the other old models through firmware update. With Fuji you simply can't go wrong unless you have no clue what you're doing at all : -)

@jhnkng Thank you for your post. I am looking for glass options along a Fuji camera being X-T3 or X-H2 when released. For AF use. Other than that, the upcoming Pocket 4K (touchscreen focus aka tap to focus) is my primary choice, with Panny cams from past already in use or other acquisition tools exclusively for manual focus shooting. Have you seen that video test up there? Any outcome is a combo route. We should never forget that. It is rather possible some bad performance may end a sweet spot combined with some other factor in-between. Exactly my wondering even though I never exclude zooms. Their versatility (framing is invariably key) cannot be matched by a prime lens. 16-55mm f/2.8 seems to be (my only experience with Fujifilm is restricted to film) a combination of primes set despite the slower range.

Does it work accurately '99% of the time'? Smoothly between focus transitions? At low light included? What lenses are you using for? Only the 35mm f/2? Can you add some test samples? : -)
-
Thanks Chris : ) That's what I really intended to. Fuji users may come and leave to us upcoming brand users the finest experience of your own. Pretty useful : -) What about the zooms? I'd love to hear from Fujicron shooters: what about those complaints as far as IQ concerns at the fastest end? Mainly when we are focused on that quiet and quick AF f/2 focal length feature for video. Any other takers?

Because of most recent announcements and camera releases... Amongst other several ones, here are two interesting sources FYA: https://fstoppers.com/education/no-larger-sensors-do-not-produce-shallower-depth-field-254158

UK... closer : -)

The user Vic Chapman hints another useful one here with a quad linear motor: https://www.thephoblographer.com/2015/09/10/review-fujifilm-90mm-f2-r-lm-wr-x-mount/ There's also the macro route on 80mm f/2.8 vs 16mm f/1.4: Or then, the 50-140 f/2.8 for twice the weight coupled to some extension tube for extra macro feature as another good alternative: Or yet, the cheaper route: As basics, extension tubes can offer an interesting macro add-on to a primary fav kit: f/2.8 16-55m + 50-140mm (only 1-stop slower than the f/2 road but as quick & quiet autofocus as the Fujicrons, I presume) with a teleconverter XF1.4X to couple an extra 2-stops faster 23mm f/1.4 for flexible wide and still portrait all-round shooting prime -- my best alternative to this trinity, I do believe: https://fujilove.com/the-fujicron-f2-trinity-all-the-lenses-i-will-ever-need/ Earlier than the arrival of the promising fastest mirrorless lens ever: https://fstoppers.com/gear/fujifilm-planning-insane-33mm-f1-autofocus-lens-271161

More complaints on the f/2.0 vs the f/1.4 counterpart, this time all about the 23mm focal length but there's also a comment on the 56mm f/1.2 to infer it as slow with autofocus (by the YT user, buddahlushious on the comments section): "I have the 23 F2 but im underwhelmed by the IQ. At first i was happy with the lens but after I got the 16mm you can really see a difference in IQ between the two. So im still looking into the 1.4 and see if i will sell the f2" ~ madwindsurfer (YT user on comments) "(...) used both 1.4 & 2 versions, the f2 is almost silent AF and much smoother - however when used for close focus work the image is SOFT unless you use f4 or more." ~ Mike Whiles (YT user on comments) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIBVrApLrNQ Following all this discussion, I'd tend to see both f/1.4 23mm (more versatile lens) and 16mm as second thought to couple with the zoom 16-55mm f/2.8 while waiting for the upcoming 33mm f/1.0 bomb, even though, under some perspective that zoom may end as the ultimate basic glass for: https://***URL removed***/forums/thread/4155396 https://***URL removed***/forums/thread/3974837 As for instance the following comments: by the user Ambulater: "I had both lenses, but sold the 16mm f/1.4 after using the 16-55mm for awhile." https://***URL removed***/forums/thread/4181174 by the user Bmat: "The 16-55 is my favorite lens. I rarely use the 16 1.4 by comparison. And after getting the 16-55, I got rid of my 18-55 and 23 1.4." https://***URL removed***/forums/thread/4137795 On the other hand, others like myself feel the 23mm f/1.4 as the first prime to go: "Depends on where you travel and what you shoot there. But the thoughts are the same. 16 is nice and wide but the 23 is more versatile because it’s not that wide." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI68Gj8j_I8

But don't mention it is because of their DPAF or that would make him nominated to the most ungrateful deed of this photo event's year edition : D especially coming from a rep of such videocentric place like ours LOL ; -)
