I didn't get a chance to try it but it had a Zeiss lens and the owner is really impressed with the IQ. But whatever the image quality, it's viewfinder brightness, colour fidelity and lack of electronic disturbance was much better than the Fuji. That's what fuji need to improve next time. :thumbsup:

I use the 16-50 on my IR converted XE1. Unlike the more expensive zooms it has only minor a hotspot and it is nice and sharp at a good price....especially as I bought it used! ![]()

My copy is sharp and used but buying the Fuji has given my a problem, I'm not happy because I didn't realise what I was missing in dynamic range with the Canon gear till I got the Fuji. Now I'm not happy. Why is the pursuit of perfection such a pain in the a**e. ![]()

Teehhee. If Canon can then ?anyone? can?. The level of detail out of the Fuji APS-C X-Trans sensor is better than any I have seen from Canon or Nikon equivalents! Enjoy. Just wait until you see results from other lenses in the Fuji range!

If the xt1 had a better viewfinder and AF for wildlife that would have been the option but lens might be the problem as well.

The XT is 'better' than earlier models....but not sufficient that would recommend it for wild life or sports use. I am on the verge of getting rid of all my Nikon gear except for the 500mm, 300mm and 80-200mm. I just need a D400 to go with them for action subjects!! Fuji are evolving and improving all the time...I would be happy to use their equipment for all other subjects.

That's the way I am after using the Fuji for the last week or so. The sports is almost nonexistent now so I just need something for wildlife.

Depends on the kind of wildlife. I'm doing an ongoing study of Northern Map Turtles. An 8x10 view camera would be fast enough for them.
