[Leica] Fujifilm Store Visit in Tokyo

[H&ECummer]

HI Chris,
I agree the image quality from the Fuji lenses is exemplary. I preferred my Fuji 50 - 200 to my nikon 300 for image quality but for action shots in Africa the XT1 simply couldn’t keep up.
For this kind of image:

I still need my Nikons - but like Jayanand I prefer the lighter smaller package of the Fuji system if I can get away with it. Time will tell what I end up packing for the next safari.
Cheers
Howard

Not sure Fuji is even trying to be a sports photography contender however IMO the XT1 equipped with the new 16-55/2.8 and 50-140/2.8 are just as good or better than the current Nikon bodies/lenses. I actually like the 50-140 Fuji better than the Nikon 70-200.
