Sorry Dave, but I have read no test about the focus accuracy of the Fuji's. Only from Sony A6000, and MFT models from Panasonic and Olympus (compared to a number of APS-C DSLRs from Pentax, Sony, Nikon, Canon).
Back on topic: this 135mm f3 equivalent of a full frame lens, FOV wise, weighs almost the same as my Nikkor 135mm f2.8 "K" (that one weighs 600 grams). That one only contains 4 elements, but weighs that much because some of those elements are FAT:
That Fuji weights so much because of the many elements:
And probably also the linear motor adds a bit to the weight:
The biggest plus of this Fuji over that old 135mm f2.8 Nikkor (besides AF) is the rather nice bokeh. The Nikkor has very smooth bokeh at MFD, but when focussing a few meters away bokeh starts to be more unruly.
So, for a 135mm f3 equivalent this lens makes for a very interesting alternative, because it renders quite nicely.
Not perfectly though, and it certainly can't hold a candle to the Sony STF in that regard.

Biggest plus for my more unruly Nikkor: the price. At €55 it is a tad cheaper.
