Butterfly with Fujinon XF55-200mm


Common Crow. Fuji X-E1 & XF55-200mm

It was windy, but the camera was snappy enough to get the picture. Fuji E-X1 & XF55-200mm is not a speed demon at 200mm with closed aperture but the combo is usable for static objects. Autofocus is challenging on moving subjects at limited light. Both X-E2 and X-T2 should be more snappy because of a hybrid autofocus system in these models.

While I found Fujinon XF55-200mm is very useful for close-up shots, it does not give the same resolution(? crispness probably would be the better word here) as XF60mm macro. I struggled with autofocus on Fuji X-E1 & XF60mm, while the autofocus is not an issue for XF55-200mm (on static objects). I got more keepers with XF55-200mm but photos taken with XF60mm have a wow factor if in focus.
