Well, at least one could say, "Mine's BIGGER than yours" ...
Fuji lenses have never been tiny, nor relatively cheap. But some of them do have amazing IQ.
My point is, if Fuji is listening to some of it's customer base that doesn't care about size or cost, and offering them a fast, 24-70 equivalent with metal construction, IS, WR, and great IQ , then why not?
Find me a
tiny metal barreled APS-C 16-55 with an in-lens AF motor, IS and WR that is
dirt cheap.
Why does it seem to me that some people jumping into this anti-Fuji (EDITED by moderator) the moment they see it being on the large side, and possibly expensive, while ignoring all other points?
Keep in mind, if the IQ is bad, then everything I said is moot point. But if,
and if, it's great: Some Fuji users asked, Fuji delivered, why and how is that stupid?
