Finally a company is showing some love with new cropped sensor lenses. They are starting with a 200 f2 (300 f2.8 equivalent). It is expensive and heavy but shows a commitment to the sensor size unlike Sony, Nikon, or Canon.

Fuji has been better than any other manufacturer all along on lenses for their APS-C X system. The only thing that's missing is a super tele and a fisheye:

And the lenses are quality control are good.
Compared on the whole to Canon/Nikon, I'd say stellar. It took a while to realise I wanted minimal sharpening for large prints, even with the X-T1.

Well, Fujifilm has the XF100-400/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR but no prime.
