Got my hands on an X-T2 and 35mm f/2 and I'm in love with it. It's just such a lovely setup. The image quality is great. I love the knobs to adjust settings. It's small and light. The manual focus peaking is really good for getting your focal point extra sharp. I've barely scratched the surface with the settings. Love love love it!

Good choice.....i love Fuji’s ooc jpegs ...i imagine you wouldnt have paid much for that and a weather sealed combination.
Just invested in a used x-t1 ..despite the model being a few years old now it still offers a lot.

I'm afraid since taking on kids my photography has taken a bit of a back seat, in particular when the little one came along 3 years ago, as it's hard to push a buggy and take photos at the same time! Coupled with that, the wife just doesn't quite "get it" - she doesn't understand why I needed to take pictures of Bodiam Castle from every conceivable angle, just in case one of the many shots I took, was THE shot.
Cancer and Covid put a couple more nails in the lid - but I have a reasonable back catalogue to play with.

Lol....I thought with kids you would have more to take photos of ...when my grandchildren came along it gave me another subject.
I hope you get the chance Soon to reignite your hobby

Like Scotney - you can always rely on a castle to give you a good subject! Even if every other bugger that has visited has taken exactly the same picture.

Unfortunately I inherited two ugly grandkids and a little one that is probably has hard to photograph as Taz the Tasmian Devil!

Are you shooting RAW and then processing ...or playing with jpegs?

I do normally shoot raw, but the last two shots have been jpegs that I have tweaked in Luminar, I know there is a quality degradation with jpegs, but I haven't been as scrupulous at keeping all my files in one place, so worked with what I could easily find on my storage.
