Chris and Jordan throwing Sigma Bf and Fuji X-Half under the bus

I have an opinion on that...

well as an X-Half owner I have to say, it's a very fun camera to use, overpriced, yes! 

A bunch of years back, they voted the Canon XC-10 the worst camera and lens of the year, and to date that camera did so well for me and paid for itself over and over again!

I don't shoot puddles!

The BF is beautiful.  If I found one used at half price, I would probably take it.  B&H has one used right now for about $1,700 which gets into a range where I daydream for a minute, but I'd be much more interested at $1,100-1,200.  It's the same thing that makes the X-M5 tempting.

The X-Half is... not for me, at all.  Not at any price.

I think that a lot of the FX2 irritation is that they released it so close to releasing the A7V.  But I also suspect that it's only a small number of people who bought it who want the A7V now.

I’ll write a spirited defence of the X-Half when I’ve got more time but suffice to say that having bought one and actually used it they have exposed themselves yet again as knowing the price of everything and the value of nothing.

Same. But, if they added raw they'd change the whole ballgame for me.

Listening to the Canadians is like reading the side of a box. Tick, 30fps burst rate. Tick, autofocus is fast. Tick, price is just $3000, a bargain. Thousands of 2 legged sheep...following the affiliate links. And don't forget to bag that 24-70mm F2.8 for 2 grand before driving home in your white Tesla to your home decked out in grey and white, stopping off on the way at the US Camera Shop for Boring Twats, to buy a massive gimbal.
