New Fujinons on the roadmap it seems

Don't tell that a Fuji fanboy. Fuji is not far away from world leadership. In fanboys, that is...

Strangely Fujifilm is doing very well financially despite the challenging business environment in this industry ...

16/2.8? Finally! I'd still prefer a 16/2 but this will have to do.

And a 33/1? A lot of people will be very happy.

Nearly missed the last joke Fuji made on their owner's cost: X-T2's firmware should have been able to allow users to create and choose folders on the SD card.

I'm very afraid I missed the rocket tech part of this idea, but Fuji messed up, threw out firmwares 4.01 to reinstall basically FW 3.00, then 4.10 came and brought back some functions of 4.00, just no folder creating magic, and now 4.20 came out and gives fanboys all reasons to call me trolling just because I make fun out of a non-working firmware. While even die-hard fanboys ask "why it is not working?"

Yeah, why? Since 2008 I haven't owned a single Nikon which could not create folders - not that I needed it that much, but for focus stacks it's a nice move the camera does it in new folders... And Fuji, right after the invention of (dial) wheels and (aperture) wheels just could not make it work. I hope they have a reliable person caring for the fire in their cave.

The 8-16 and 16-80 look like a nice combo. I've been thinking for a couple years now about switching to a Fuji mirrorless camera, and these two lenses would be a good start for the system, innit. Then the 100-400 and I'd be set.

(until the next big thing comes along, that is - as always Big Grin)

I wouldn't really switch to Fuji X-System for those lenses. Almost any system has good alternatives in those focal lengths and most are even cheaper/smaller/better.

I'd strongly recommend to try the system before you throw 2000+1800 (8-16, 100-400) +2000 (X-H1 or two X-T20) + X (16-80, I estimate 800-1000 if it's a good one). around 2019 available (could also become 2020...) at them. Just keep on thinking, rover, and imagine how cool Fuji would be if they could fix their quirks. But who knows? At the time they really release the 16-80, they might have been able to bring out a sort of decent firmware.

Of course price is another matter altogether. Smile Most likely I won't move anywhere and keep shooting Canon until I'm done with photography anyway, but it may be nice to dream of shaking things up once in a while. Smile
