Thanks for the reply Chris, however I unexpectedly "won" a dual charger and 4 batteries on ricardo the swiss auction site and he offered to bring the items over. I jokingly asked is he was the one selling the 56mm and XT-1 last week and he said no but funnily enough he was about to auction all his Fuji kit, so I asked him to bring along the 56mm 55-200 and XT-1 camera. I tried the 56mm and loved the effect and I will probably get one BUT I did buy the 55-200 from him as I don't have any long fuji lenses. I am hoping the XT-1 is more suited to the 60mm macro lens.

the worst part is I had ordered a new XT-1 on Sunday and it will arrive today, it would seem wrong to me to send it back and buy his second hand one, sigh if only I had known he had the body before hand, still thats life!

Thanks IanW

Hi Ian

Yes and yes.  It has a plastic mount, but otherwise feels like a good quality lens.  I 
really like the results: I’ll post some shortly.

I’m on the point of buying an X-T1 and selling my small Pentax kit.  I might 
get the XC16-50 if it has good reviews.

Chris, are the XC lenses fully compatible with the X Mount, I am looking for 
something longer but wasn't sure about the meaning of XC idoes it just mean 
consumer grade?
