Again, I think you are wrong. Fujifilm makes extremely high quality professional lenses that are used on medium and large format cameras. Or at least did fairly recently. They've also announced a new medium format digital system with lenses to match. I have the Fuji "prosumer" X series system, and I can tell you that their lenses are very, very high quality - besting most of the Nikon and Canon offerings with metal construction and in some cases weather sealing.
- frostburg 10y agoThey stopped making those a few years ago. Their current offerings (the fuji x system) are good for people that like nice cameras but don't need to make a living with them (like me - when I shoot digitally I use a Sony A7r, but I wouldn't have picked that for actual work and could also have gone Fuji, but at the time they had only the 16mp first gen x-trans sensor), most of the lenses are good, but they don't have the coverage of the expansive Nikon or Canon ecosystems, mirrorless tracking autofocus is still lagging behind pro dslr bodies (I don't even use autofocus, but again, I don't generally have to get paid), etc. In the end a 2012 D800e outperforms a brand new X-T2 in image quality in most scenarios, despite the Fuji having better lenses (and you can always natively mount superior Otus or Apo-Sonnar lenses on the Nikon).
