the DA 10-17mm zoom is just an awesome lens; I suggested the DA21 Limited mainly as a possible stop-gap lens....
it's wide enough to give you a taste, plus the factor of as a used lens you can get one just about anywhere....

DA 21 Limited would be my suggestion...

but I love my DA 21....

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

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...

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...

agreed - the first version is definitely special; my only concern is the long-ish MFD of about 2'......
agreed - my affair with the vaunted FA 43 did not have me singing its praises, especially when compared to the DA 40 Limited....
and yes, my GAS/LBA continues unabated, even after all this time.... it has gotten more expensive tastes, too....
I'm in the market (soon) for an A* 85/1.4....

there are three versions of that Voigtlander - they figured out how to make them lighter and less expensive as time went on; I have Version 1, the heaviest of the series....
I have the 35/1.4 and the 50/1.2 lenses by TT Artisan, and for the price ($78 and $98), you can't beat them....
they are not perfect by any means, but what they are able to put together at that price-point is pretty amazing... I'm tempted by their M-mount lenses, just to see what their quality is like for that lineup....
as far as the FA 31 - I'm a bit hesitant about it; I had the FA 43 and let it go not long after purchasing it.... so, we'll see about another 'legendary' lens in my hands....
