For 35mm and wider the image magnification feature was almost necessary to ensure a sharp image. Did you notice such a phenomenon yourself with the 90mm lens, Brandon? <br /><br />Also the entries by Anonymous are the funniest I've seen on any forum.

How did the 90mm feel on the body? I, for one, hope that Fuji will put a 135mm equivalent lens on their roadmap some day, which would be a lens that's about 90mm. But I've heard conjecture that the reason Fuji has topped out their primes at about 60mm is because longer lenses would make the camera too front heavy, given the size and weight of the body.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15322338.post-36471773211903506712012-09-14T22:12:44.473-04:002012-09-14T22:12:44.473-04:00Nope.
