Thanks for all the kind comments. For edkoz, the camera is a Fuji X-Pro1 mirrorless camera. The lens is the Fuji Xf-14mm wide angle lens.

I use a Fuji camera, (X-E1) I have nice Fuji lenses, I point my camera at pretty things and push the button. I hold my camera nice and steady, I hold my breath while the camera snaps pictures and I wonder why the heck my pictures don't come out looking just like yours ??????

That 14mm must be incredibly sharp, but the photographer must be incredibly sharp also.

Great pictures.

Very nice shots. As another reply states, you certainly have an eye for composition it seems.

Mine was shipped today! Only two weeks old and I saved 100 bucks on it!

As the lens shade is the same as the 18-55; I only need to carry one in my bag.

Everyone has been raving about the 14 being one of the best lenses they've ever used. I will find out by week's end...

Sweet deal. They are hard to find at a discount here in the USA. Congrats!

I have the 35, 60, and 14. I've mostly been using the 60 and the 14. I sold my X100S to fund the X-Pro1. But I do miss it. I think the X-Pro1 is the way to go though. I like that I can upgrade the body when the X-Pro2 comes out and all my lenses are keepers. Plus the X-Pro1 body has such a great feel. The build quality is unreal...

I just picked up my Fuji XF14/2.8R lens today! It's absolutely perfect, which it should be as the seller just bought it new about three weeks ago.

OOooohhh! What a sweetie! Yowza! This is one of the best lenses I've EVER used.

Jax, I fully agree about the feel of the X-Pro1 build quality....it's unreal, all right. Pick up a Match Technical thumb rest (CNC machined from solid brass) when you get a chance. It's a really nice addition; even Fuji sells the Match Technical one as their own (and they add about $50 to the price). Also, the 18-55 is a REALLY nice lens. I hardly ever use the 35 anymore, the 18-55 is very close to being as good optically, just not as fast.
