You could wait till May when the Fuji Summit happens.The 150-600mm thats under development is likely to be announced to coincide with XH-2.

the XH2 is on my wants as well, I should probably sell my XH1 now and some of the others and bank for the future, the GFX can pickup most of the slack and I can use the xpro2 for the X lenses in the interim . Sigma supposedly will start selling Xmount as well so it is feasible to see them releasing X versions of the ones already made for Sony E and EF-M , same with Tamron who have announced a couple but can easily take advantage of lenses already devloped by adding a different mount

Very kind, thank you Eddie!
I've opted for a Kodachrome 64 recipe from Fuji X Weekly, but with the white balance usually set as 'auto'. It's got some really deep shadows and a general desaturation, so it ticks some nice boxes for general 'out and about' shooting.
You're right though, I'm loving the X-E2 already.

Another damn nice commute home. I did, however, work myself up onto a wall to take the observatory shot. Thought it felt uncomfy at the time, around my right hand side, in the general lower-ribs area. Later last night it was quite uncomfortable, and that has continued into this morning. Oh well!

X-E2 & 7Artisans 25mm f/1.8.

I think in many ways that recipe looks better than the Classic chrome. A lot of the time if I know I will be editing I just shoot in Eterna mode on my XH1 and X100V but i load 4 or 5 custom recipes on both (leaving at least one slot for just using the basic settings)

I hadn't realised that GFX had only been around for five years. Wow.

Mine is lovely. I’ve gone from between 250-300 mi a week by car to 6.5mi each way by bike.
Last year I covered around 1,600 miles since March. This year, I’m aiming to surpass 2,000 miles, and I’m pretty firmly on course, having exceeded the 150 mile mark by the end of last week, since January 4th (I missed today’s cycle because of the bad ribs, but tomorrow I should be back on the horse, carefully)!
