    One of the best lens in the Fuji lens line up. I have one. This and the 18mm f1.4.
    I like this 2nd edition (WR) compared to the non-WR in terms of bokeh. The first one is great but this one has smoother bokeh, IMHO.

    If you could only have one Fuji lens, which would it be?

    I was so tempted yet this $100 discount is really underwhelming. Since I'm not an expert, it would be nice if you can elaborate on this.

    You can buy a very equivalent lens as far as iso performance, image quality and depth of field on full from for around half of the price. You will likely have better autofocus with full frame also.

    You can buy an equivalent full frame lens for around half of the price. The image quality and performance will be similar and in some ways better on full frame. If you're locked into Fuji, I would wait until it's around $600-$700 on sale

    Which equivalent Full Frame lens for around $899/2 = $450 that would have a similar performance? Please elaborate.
    Full Frame would be likely be better (Sony 85 GM for example) but having both, I carry this one around more due to size.

    This lens runs for around $700 used at b&h, btw. Not always available at that price but i've seen it gone that low.
