Mr. Leica gets a Fuji

So, if even “Mr. Leica” Thorsten Overgaard decided to grab a Fuji (the X-Pro2), then we now have all the right to say that Fuji is indeed the new Leica :) . A full review of the camera will come after longer testings, but here are Thor’s first impressions.

• he likes its simplicity (not many buttons) and it brings him back to when he started photography
• in many ways it feels natural in the hands
• big compliments to the Fuji manual :)
• In natural light the skin tones look great and all colors look pretty precise
• With artificial light in the evening the blue and orange colors are a little bit too strong, but you can get away from auto White balance, but that’s a problem for all cameras to get colors 100% right in such situations
• he really likes the X-Pro2, and it’s from now on going to travel with with him in a bag with many other Leica gear

Godox Roundup

The Fuji Guys made a quick video shooting the XF60mm and XF80mm side by side. Check it out at Fuji Guys Youtube.

The video does not tell us something really new, but it gives us the opportunity to make a little poll, and see which one of these two lenses you guys would get for your macro photography.

Here are the main differences on paper:
