Fujifilm X-T2 vs Nikon D750 AF Comparison


Fujifilm’s AF system has grown by leaps and bounds since the Fujifilm X100 and X-Pro1 launched. FStoppers has a decent write up about the history of Fujifilm’s AF past and how firmware 4.00 changed Fujifilm AF for the better. Yet the most compelling part of their article is probably the AF videos they produced.

The Fujinon XF35mm f/2 R WR is widely believed to be the fastest XF lens at this time, but specialty lenses like the XF90mm f/2 are much faster. It was believed to be the first lens from Fujifilm to provide DSLR type performance. Today, many meet or beat their DSLR peers in AF performance and quality.

The Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 R is a little bit older than the Fujinon XF35mm f/2 R WR, but it was also designed to be a portrait lens first. In my experience this lens is very fast for an 85mm equivalent and it can even be used very successfully in AF-C, when there isn’t a lot of available light, which other 85mm lenses can’t or have great difficulty.
