Yeah I haven't written off the 27 and many consider it to one of the best Fuji lenses for sharpness and overall quality use. And the X-E2 with the pancake is a crazy small setup with a fast lens and big sensor! I just have not been out with 2 camera bodies with Fuji yet where I would put the 27 on one and a longer lens on another...and to me, 27 and 35 are so close in focal length that a few steps and it is the same. I am seriously considering picking up a 35mm f/2 because I have read a ton of reviews and videos about people saying how much faster and quieter it is along with sharper and smaller. That f/1.4 is nice to have though but in most cases, the f/2 would be more than enough shallow dof. Plus the f/2 is weather sealed. The 56 is high on my list right now and would love the 50-140 also as I LOVE my DA* 50-135. A X-T1 is likely in my future too if I continue on the Fuji pathway for the more robust body, opportunity for a vertical grip, speed, weather sealing, etc.
This was one of the first street shots I took with the X-E2 and 35 f/1.4 and right out of the camera I was like...wow...those skin tones and incredible sharpness and accuracy (EVF certainly helps with nailing the settings).

I recently picked up a Fujifilm X-E2 and X-T10. LOVING the X-T10. I have the 27mm pancake but haven't used it much because I have been addicted to the quality of the 35mm f/1.4. I shot a couple of student competitions with my K-3 and several different lenses (mostly DA* 16-50 and DA* 50-135) and had more keepers and images that I said WOW about from the Fuji. Seriously considering selling off all of my Pentax gear and going all in with Fuji!
