Glad you like it, Nathan.  It is a great walk-around lens.

I paid around $300 for it, and after having taken several hundred images with this lens, I have to say that it is the best bargain in photography right. The small size (it is basically a pancake lens) combined with amazing image quality has made it my favorite Fuji lens right now. The only thing I do not like about it is the absence of an old-fashioned aperture ring, so you have to set the aperture using the dial on the camera. But aside from that, this is a lens that I would take to the proverbial desert island.
