Video: XF 56mm + X-T1 quick focus speed test

Damien D’Angelo (youtube channel) unboxed his X-T1 and 56mm and made a quick focus speed test at f/1.2 (starts at minute 3:50).

Damien says that at f/1.2:

“you see a clear distinction, your subject is basically popping out and it’s almost like a 3D effect. […] very impressive, very satisfied with that […] very fast focus, which is really appreciated. Focus is now performing very well.”

He also told me via twitter: “I have shared some ‘out of the camera’ samples on Twitter yesterday night, such as this one.”

More videos will follow soon… stay tuned.

P.S.: One more good news. US-stores just started shipping the X-T1.
