X-T30
#25
Actually, yes... in a NAS, SSDs would be overkill, wouldn't they?

Update on the X-T30: I finally received a shipping note today, seems I will have it until the weekend.

I see it as the perfect travel lens, but I'm worried it might perform pretty poorly at short focal lengths (< 20mm). Thus, I don't feel like paying almost $900 on a fairly crappy lens :-(

I am honestly curious how it performs, too. So far, however, I haven't used it at all, so not much to report from my side, other than feedback on the physical size:

As could be expected, the lens is bigger and heavier than the XF 18-55, but less bulky than the XF 18-135.

However, I had hopes it would turn out a bit more compact, to be honest. It's roughly the same size as the Nikkor AF-S DX 16-80 VR (as long as you don't include the hoods in the comparison, the hood delivered with the Nikkor is huge) However, the Nikkor is one stop faster at the short end. So, based on the specs the Fujinon could maybe have been designed a bit smaller.
