A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

I bought it because I had a chance to take it for half the price. Exceeded expectations. Excellent compact, reliable, the picture is such that you don’t want to take it off the carcass.
About autofocus. Misses happen at close range. If the object is at least 2-3 meters away, it almost does not smear. When autofocusing, it buzzes as if a small Karlsson with a propeller is sitting inside, and trying to get out. But I quickly got used to it, there is some kind of vintage in it)
Although it is ancient, but with such parameters, there is probably no better glass for Fuji.

Pros

Picture quality (drawing) Sharpness (razor) Compactness (almost a pancake) Build quality (metal) Aperture (2.0)

Cons

During autofocus, it buzzes unexpectedly strongly. The lid (the one that is put on the hood) does not hold well, it is easy to lose.
