Makes you think, makes you approach your subject since hopes for a sneaky and accurate AF shot are slim to none after sunset, but hence its beauty. Most definitely a stealthy inconspicuous piece to have in a pocket, but everywhere. Since my biggest spec is battery life - using the LCD to check shots generously, I got a couple days' worth out of 1 off-brand battery, so once you get used to power-saving shooting, this thing does hold up and far better than electronic-everything-only soap bars. What has me curious now is the 18/2 and the 56/1.2 given how much more practical they could be for my wider angle preference and/or night shooting, especially given how Fuji optimizes their glass for the DX sensor size to work like true FX equivalents (the 27 2.8 IS actually 2.8, and from what I read/seen, the 1.2 IS just like the FX 1.2).
