p.1 #1 · BACK TO FUJI with my 2nd X-H2-based system


Lenses are 8-16/2.8, 16-55/2.8 II, and 70-300/4-5.6, a couple CF Express B 512 cards, and 3 extra Fuji batteries.. Had a Touit 12 in the order initially but changed it for a 10-24 and will exchange that for the 8-16/.. This rig will replace my Sony rig--a7R V, Batis 18, Sony 24-70/2.8 GM II, Batis 85/1.8, and Tamron 50-300/4.5-6.3 III.

As I age (currently 82), get more feeble and lazy, and no longer print 24" wide, saving over a pound of weight becomes more important.. I was rather happy with my 1st X-H2 rig, but I fell into the Sony a7R n trap again with a version V; it was a fine set but every time I held it in my hand, my fingernails stopped on the lens and mount, and I got tired of that once too often.. I still have an Epson P800 (and its replacement, the P900), so I guess I'll be happy with 25-by-17s and 40MP.

You talk about weight - and then get the biggest and heaviest lenses in the system?

They are smaller and lighter than the lenses he would get if he were using a FF system.
