Finally found time to try out this pairing. Still getting use to Fuji menu's and settings. But first impressions is this combo is what i was hoping for.

Great Pictures. If I'm not mistaken these have been taken at Mt. Washington. Did you take the Cog Railcar to the top? If so how was the ride?

Unfortunately I'm still waiting for X-E5 and XF 23mm f/2.8 kit to arrive. How do you find the manual focus of the Voigtlander?
I do already own the XF 27mm f/2.8 R WR but unfortunately it’s not f/2.

Thank you and take care.

Not OP, but I've had the Voigt for a while now and use it on my X-T5. I think the focus tab works quite well in landscape orientation but it's a little awkward to use in portrait. The focus throw is a bit short on the infinity end but it just took a little bit of practice to get used to it. I really want to try out the 18mm but that has an even shorter focus throw on the long end.

Drove up. Didn't even know the Cog was running that morning till I saw it climbing up the side of the mountain. Very rare weather for this time of year, no wind and warm. As far as the lens goes my only gripe is I wish the focus ring and aperture ring were reversed. Really liking the combo though.

No. I played around in Lightroom with them quickly . I have no experience with Fuji files. Been using Strictly Sony for last 12+ years or so. Will take a little time to understand what I can do with them in different scenario's.
