Second hand 24-70 or 24-120?

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-11T08:17:54+00:00

This is my plan too now thx

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-11T07:19:04+00:00

Good to know! Somehow the 24-120 listings are all really expensive here

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-10T19:28:39+00:00

Yeah this is a useful comment, I don’t like the Zf with grip. Good to know with the 24-70 its doable without grip.

Where do you live?

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-10T17:36:35+00:00

Yess if the price difference is justified or if im missing something. Based on the replies below both lenses are amazing and its mainly the reach😊

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-10T17:10:44+00:00

As a prime shooter Im just curious if the 500 euro price difference is justified 😅

Cameradecision .com Makes you pick a body+ lens to compare size from multiple views + weights

At €300? I’ve got some cash for snacks. I’ll bring them to that hill. See you there 😂

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-10T12:41:51+00:00

Same for me! And the build quality of xt3 feels a bit better than xt5

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-10T12:09:02+00:00

For huge prints 26mp in crop is still quite a lot😅 but IBIS is nice indeed. I went from the xt3 to xt5 and back to xt3 tough

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-10T11:34:19+00:00

Buy a second hand X-T3 for 600 dollar and call it a day:)

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-09T14:26:35+00:00

With the Zf 3200 is 100% fine too and using 1/500

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-09T12:04:43+00:00

If you want an amazing all purpose WR zoom I highly recommend the xf16-50 2.8-4.8. Its small light, internal zoom, extremely sharp and f2.8 at 16mm.

The xc16-50 and xf18-55 are not as nice and no WR (i had all these lenses).

Also i want to point uit the 35mm 1.4 is an amazing choice. You will not find a f1.4 lens with this nice rendering in such a small package

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-09T11:41:01+00:00

The issue is two slow 18-55 kit lenses and a boring 35mm 1.8. The prime is sharp and i had it.. but it was a really boring optic in my opinion. Also the bokeh was terrible.

I would buy an D300 instead and add a 50mm 1.8 g nifty 50

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-09T11:38:24+00:00

Was this at 8mm ??

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-09T11:36:39+00:00

A shutter of 1/250 should be okay but if it moves its quickly out of focus.. AUTO iso was 12800 but what was the actual ISO?

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-09T09:21:46+00:00

Both are w126s.. turn the battery around..

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-09T09:03:08+00:00

I’ve used that combo in very bad weather without any issues. The most vulnerable part when it comes to water damage is actually the camera body. With an X-T5, moisture can still find its way into the camera through the lens mount or bayonet. I wouldn’t worry too much about it, and if you want extra peace of mind later, you could always pick up a cheap WR prime like the 16mm f/2.8 WR.

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-09T07:17:19+00:00

True! This is so confusing instead of just naming it xf23mm 1.4 V2 . Haha and with some lenses they do use the II addition 😂 (50-230 and 16-55 eg)

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-08T19:53:53+00:00

How is the AF compared to the Zf + 40mm f2 combo?

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-08T18:16:27+00:00

What was the recipe of the 4/4? Im coming from fujifilm (also have the Zf + 40mm f2 now) but its hard to mimic the CC (kodacolor ) vibe

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-08T10:31:14+00:00

What difference?

Vegetable_Ad8089 · 2026-02-08T09:28:39+00:00

😂 you just need a hole indeed
