Time for another X-Trans roundup :)
Debunking X-Trans Myths
There currently about 100 native Fuji X mount lenses out there. And if you don’t mind manual focussing, then actually some of those can be very affordable alternatives to Fujinon X glass. Today I will list 2 of them, the fast Sainsonic Kamlan 50mm f/1.1 and the Meike 85mm Macro lens.
alikgriffin reviewed the Kamlan 50mm F1.1. He says amongst the others:
Another fast and good alternative for Fuji X lovers is the Mitakon 35mm Mk II 0.95.

Back in September, Meike announced the 86mmF2.8 1:1.5 Macro lens, an affordable manual focus macro lens and alternative to Fujifilm’s XF60mm and XF80mm. But will it conquire Fuji X shooters heart? It all depends on its performance, and we have a review about it made by Damian Brown on Youtube
Another great macro option is the Samyang/Rokinon 100mm F2.8 1:1 macro lens (currently disocunted at BHphoto and $100 cheaper than at Adorama).

I warned you already 10 days ago, when National Geographic declared the Fujifilm X-T2 the best travel camera 2017… get ready for many more articles like this popping up on the web in the near future.
And indeed, there is a lot more already on the web already, and I will share them here on FujiRumors for you in a dedicated roundup.
Fujifilm is well represented in the “Top Gear Rankings“… here we go:
We recently asked you what you think is the Top Fujifilm gear of 2017. A couple of thousands of you already dropped their vote… keep it up :)

I have received some emails, asking me if I ever heard of RAW Power. Sure I have :). Actually FujiRumors was the first site to report about it 10 months ago here. I included it also in my 10 Lightroom alternatives article lately. So at least for regular FR readers, it’s old news.
What nobody told you until now is that you should keep in mind RAW Power uses the Apple RAW engine, which so far, to my knowledge, does not support Fujifilm compressed RAW files. This could be a dealbreaker for many out there, who like to shoot lossless compressed.
With that said, let’s jump over to today’s X-Trans conversion roundup… hope you can find something useful for you :)
