======================================================================
Until I got my X-E2, I was frustrated that I couldn't use most of my manual
lenses on my 30D
(the only AF lens I owned was a 28-80 4.5 kit lens), but it's heaven for me
now. I'm getting rid
the 30D and lens since I don't even touch it anymore. At work I used a
Kodak DCS 560,
EOS 10D, 30D, 1D, 1Ds, and 5D Mk II, but the Fuji is my favorite digital
camera ever.
I just love the small, rectangular shape (like an M3) and never want a
camera with a hump
again. I don't have anything but legacy lenses.
