JTLeica Posted June 12, 2018 Share #21  Posted June 12, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) The Fuji 10-24mm zoom is f4 but has OIS.  Fuji also has 16mm/f1.4 and 14mm/f2.8 primes, so yes, I would say slow compared to the competition. Lets leave the competition out of it...  Fuji has one Mirrorless system (forgetting the MF one) and its been going for 2.5 years longer than the T, so in 2.5 years if the L lens lineup from Leica is still lacking you will have a point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted June 12, 2018 Share #22  Posted June 12, 2018 And what sense does O.I.S. make for a wideangle lens? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly the T was a bit of an experimental punt for Leica that is slowly starting to pay off. So I would say they are right to take things slow... if it were your business would you focus all your resources on a new line, instead of your proven line? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikasmg Posted June 30, 2018 Share #27 Â Posted June 30, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) IÂ prefer the 105-280 R with i.4x APO-extender. Why though? The SL lens is just as fast (or slow), about 5% lighter and has autofocus. Â - Vikas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
