Don't forget CBA... I see you got an X-H1, which is a "luxury" Fujifilm body as far as APS-C bodies are concerned, kind of like their K-3 I guess (and the X-Pro bodies would be a step above?)

Looking forward to the battle of the 85/1.4 lenses ... (Zeiss vs SMC-A*...)
i don't know about the "luxury" part.. it's got the Fuji version of SR, but the internals are the same as the X-T2...

Mike Johnston (who a lot of people here respect) has both and says that compared to the X-T2, the X-H1 is more refined in every way, including the feeling of the shutter, which he said was one of the best he ever felt if not the best. And the camera is also quite bigger than the X-T2... weight might be an issue but handling is improved.

I read his blog regularly, and enjoy it...

there are a number of changes that make the X-H1 stand out: different body style, soft trigger, IBIS, etc...

funny thing is, it's still smaller and weighs less than a K-5...

Does it have a magnesium body? I don't remember.

It looks to be about the same size as the K-5 cameras. Of course they're both quite a bit bigger than a K-S1, but the Fuji might not be heavier than the K-S1 due to the lack of pentaprism.

it does have the magnesium body, which gives it an amazing, sturdy feel...

I assume you were dangling a pork chop in front of him in that first shot?
