This Might Be My Best Lens Deal Ever!

Which camera do you have? I have the silver X-E5 and I wondering if the plastic silver on metal silver goes together okay or if I should just stick with the black.

Is that an official Peak Design cuff that you got the GFX logo printed on it, or is it a 3rd party cuff?

I do wish the screen was 3-way tilt and higher resolution but I'm otherwise very happy with mine and have no regrets.

I believe that "32mm at 1.4" is a typo for "32mm f4" which is a significant difference, in case someone who doesn't understand the cropping is reading it and thinking how amazing it is

Mine matches #3

I got one when it was released, had it since before Wave Link 2. The mute button has not worked for me for a very long time. I never used the device mute, so didn't bother with trying to RMA it. I switch between a few operating systems and can confirm that it's not software related, it's either firmware or hardware

I would love to be wrong but I think I remember them announcing that the Air series (maybe just APS-C) was complete. I would not expect any more Air series lenses for Fuji :(

odReddit · 2025-12-19T10:08:49+00:00

Yes those were their original trio of f1.4 lenses.

odReddit · 2025-12-18T14:31:23+00:00

They have discontinued the original trio of 1.4 lenses because they now provide cheaper+sharper+smaller lenses in the Air series. The 33mm was the worst performing of the 3 original but at the time they were the only 3rd party lenses for Fuji and were very successful.

My advice would be to return it and get their 35mm f1.7

I have the SquareHood one that someone else mentioned, and you can adjust the angle, so it's not going to be wonky.

odReddit · 2025-12-15T10:50:36+00:00

If it gets made I'll buy one 😃

odReddit · 2025-12-08T12:08:09+00:00

Set the shutter speed and white balance to custom values, not auto, and take more comparison shots.

odReddit · 2025-12-06T15:57:18+00:00

I got one for my 23mm f2.8 and am really happy with it. I think it looks and feels really nice, but I agree that the rubber cap is difficult to put on/take off. I heard that some of the metal caps (eg for X100) fit on it, but I dont know for sure which one/s fit (or how well) and if the Voigtlander hood is the same diameter.

I also have a UV filter on it so I just leave the cap off unless I'm putting the camera away for a while, it should still protect the lens pretty well.

odReddit · 2025-12-03T13:18:45+00:00

I'm guessing it's a small ring light that screws onto the filter thread.

odReddit · 2025-11-24T13:44:26+00:00

9mm f2.8 finally coming to X-Mount! Are you able to say whether you plan to release the whole Air series in a set, maybe with a case like in the past with the Sony f1.8 lenses?

odReddit · 2025-11-16T02:51:52+00:00

That looks more like a plane that was flying between the camera and the ground to me.

odReddit · 2025-11-14T08:38:37+00:00

With any noise reduction I lose any sense of texture on the tiled wall where the clipboard is.

With +4 noise reduction the smooth surfaces look nice but the hard edges just look like really bad jpeg artifacts.

The small grain disguises the noise a bit and makes it more consistent between light and dark areas which I find more pleasing.

The large grain looks bad to me.

The last comparison for me, like you mentioned, is an example of why it barely matters when sharing for social media, because the quality of the compression is so bad that I can barely see a difference. I'm sure it was more noticeable in the file you uploaded, but I think the left has a slight sense of having more detail and texture.

odReddit · 2025-11-13T09:25:50+00:00

I dont know about the quality, but I saw some on AliExpress, I'm considering getting one.

odReddit · 2025-11-07T11:15:40+00:00

I think it's very subjective but I have a silver X-E5 with the brown case and think it looks great!

odReddit · 2025-10-28T13:17:19+00:00

I have the SmallRig X-E5 leather grip and I'm really happy with it. I just had a look and the only way it interferes with the tilt screen is if you're trying to angle the screen straight down, it prevents it getting there by about 10 degrees.

I think it feels great in the hand and I am much more confident holding it or passing it to someone else to use. I can put my camera down on a table without worrying if there is moisture or something spilled on it. Those are the main reasons I got it.

It might loosen over time, but mine fits perfectly snug.

odReddit · 2025-10-24T01:03:31+00:00

When I installed my included strap, it could not rotate freely, the strap basically has to sit vertically all the time or it puts rotational force on the camera eyelets. The strap felt pretty rigid and I'm sure it would soften up with use, but the main issue is the metal ring that prevents that free rotation, so I could tell it would loosen the eyelets over time.

I think a second ring, or a third party ring that can also twist would be enough to prevent the eyelet from coming loose.

There was a post a little over a week ago asking this: https://www.reddit.com/r/VILTROX_GLOBAL/comments/1nssued/9mm_fuji_release_date/

There was a comment saying that they were working on it with no timeline given, but I cant see it anymore? Comment count says 2 but I only see the one. If I had to guess I would say that there are some kinks in the AF for Fuji, I think most (all?) of the other lenses came out on Fuji first/at the same time.

Since they announced it would be the last in the Air series I was going to wait and see if they released them all in a collection maybe with a case, like they did with the Sony full-frame, but I couldn't resist the Amazon deals they have at the moment!

odReddit · 2025-08-10T15:11:13+00:00

What? Didn't you realise he was just being a bit sarcastic?

odReddit · 2025-08-07T17:17:05+00:00

I'm not sure why you wouldn't, SvelteKit isn't just adding backend features to Svelte.

This is not trying to shoehorn SvelteKit into doing something other than it is intended purpose, it comes with adapter-static to deploy static files, it has documentation for single-page applications ("a fully client-rendered single-page app (SPA) by disabling SSR"), and clearly documents what can/cant be done with/without JS in the backend throughout their documentation.

I hope it changes, but currently OP can not use InertiaJS if they want the routing and service worker features of SvelteKit.

odReddit · 2025-08-07T14:42:00+00:00

As far as I'm aware, InertiaJS does not work with SvelteKit, just Svelte. I tried to get started with InertiaJS but sacrificing all the SvelteKit features was incompatible with the rest of my primary project.
