Ivan, nice article as always! My wish list is simple:
More clients at http://www.totalqualityphoto.com, so that I may upgrade to the XT-2x or eventually, the GFX50.
The Fujinon XF80mm f/2.8 Macro would be awesome as well!
Happy Holidays to you and your photographic community!
1. some wide astro lens (with low astigmatism / coma in corners),
2. 30mm f1.0 ,
3. some nice walk-around zoom (16-105 f4.0) that would be good for video as well and
4. a X-E3s with fully articulated touch screen.
More time to play with my Fujifilm equipment and more time to print –that’s my wish list. Although my curiosity was piqued by the author’s #8–you mean for X series? I have a 35mm 0.95, have a 35mm 2, love the graphite X Pro 2 that I have, don’t use X100 (#5 would have been killer back in the day when I did have an X100-love that focal length), okay with the primes I have–I adapt and don’t own a GFX.
– Updates to the oldest lenses (particularly 35 1.4, 14 2.8) to fast, silent AF.
– All lenses also updated to WR.
– stronger video codec, at least 10-bit 4:2:2
– much better video AF (ideally tracking Eye-AF)
– stronger Eye-AF in stills.
I finally sat down and studied the problem. I found (Drummer roll, maestro plz) …. a short between the earphone cups. Well duh.
Seems like, since Fuji applies the correction “in camera” it’s already been done for me. As I said, duh (very lower case😮).
Makes me wonder why I don’t see the same with Nikon. More studying needed.
More than happy with the X system the only thing I want and have been asking for is IBIS like Olympus have.
That way I would be able to get the very best from all my wonderful X mount prime lenses.
Yes I have zooms with O.I.S but I really want to use primes without the need of a tripod or support.
I’m not interested in 4K as I’ve always been a stills shooter.
I would purchase a purpose made video/movie camera if I wanted to shoot video.

Wow! that is great wish list. More Client is certainly the way to go. Have a superday ahead!
33 1,0 and I would be happy 🙂
Me too. Its long shot but I am hopeful. 🙂
Simple : 600mm f/4 for the GFX !
In order of importance –
5 x 4 ratio in camera jpegs
Updated 14 f2.8, 23 f1.4, 35 f1.4(f1.2 would be nice but I think f1 would be too big and heavy), 56 f1.2 and 18-55/55-200 zooms.
70 mm f1.4 (if possible with a 62mm filter size), I really miss my Nikon 105mm lenses.
1. some wide astro lens (with low astigmatism / coma in corners),
2. 30mm f1.0 ,
3. some nice walk-around zoom (16-105 f4.0) that would be good for video as well and
4. a X-E3s with fully articulated touch screen.
I just updated Adobe Photoshop CC and Camera Raw/Camera/Lens Profile lists the Nikon D850 but does not list my XPro2 nor any of the lenses.
That tops my list!

A good quality pocketable Fujifilm camera, one I can carry with me wherever I go – a successor of the X70.

– All lenses also updated to WR.

A pancake lens for GFX?! For what? To make it fit your pocket?
Actually that would be nice. 🙂
