Reviews around mm (5.00 of 5)

  • 35mm in full-frame terms) is perfect for every day life, documentary style work, environmental portraits, street, landscape, and as a walk around lens
  • The 27mm is sharp all the way through its range and really small, highly recommended
  • Let me assure you that if you are looking for the "affordable" 23mm, you will be disappointed with this Lens
  • This lens is exactly what I have been waiting for: a durable, weather-sealed 35mm equivalent that's just as sharp as its 35mm brother
  • 23mm F2I was never so happy to send back a Fuji product
  • Read remaining 7 reviews for mm

Reviews around build (5.00 of 5)

  • Sharp as a tack, fast and accurate focus, compact and relatively light, and fantastic build quality
  • Very well built and looks great on both my xt-2 and x-t20.
  • , it's fast, it's well built, it's light ... absolutely a game-change for me ... and I came from the APS-C
  • optically superb, excellent build (weatherproof!), slightly wide but for me perfectly normal

Reviews around size (5.00 of 5)

  • The good news is that the AF is blazing, and i mean BLAZING fast, (Think Sony A6500) and its the perfect size and weight for the X-T20, as all the other Fuji lenses except the 27mm are heavy and awkward and make using that camera a pain and a frustration
  • the size of the 18-55mm kit lens as well.
  • It doesn't let in as much light or produce as much bokeh as its 23mm f/1.4 counterpart, but it makes up for it with faster autofocus, smaller size and weight, and rugged build quality.

Reviews around autofocus (4.16 of 5)

  • The extremely small size and weight, very fast autofocus, and weather resistant design make this a great lifestyle and travel lens.
  • Lighter, smaller lens hood, smaller diameter, faster autofocus, less noisy
  • The autofocus on the f1.4 is very fast, the f2 version is faster but not enough to make a huge difference
  • It doesn't let in as much light or produce as much bokeh as its 23mm f/1.4 counterpart, but it makes up for it with faster autofocus, smaller size and weight, and rugged build quality.
  • n’t think i’d miss it that much
  • Read remaining 7 reviews for autofocus

Reviews around focus (3.86 of 5)

  • I'm including a photo with the lens (and optional lens hood that fits both the 23mm and 35mm) attached to the X-Pro2 to give an idea of scale as well as a couple of photos that may give an idea of how sharp the focus is (given the limitations of the size for review images).
  • Sharp as a tack, fast and accurate focus, compact and relatively light, and fantastic build quality
  • This is probably the fastest auto focusing lens I've ever used.
  • This 23mm F2 WR lens is designed to frustrate you with soft photos and make you pay 2x more for the 23mm 1.4 to get this angle in tack sharp focus, as its a really great view
  • This lens feels so good, beautiful design, sharp images and fast focus + accurate.

Reviews around length (3.75 of 5)

  • n’t think i’d miss it that much
  • It's pretty much a 35mm effective focal length, which is just right.
  • The focal length is incredibly versatile, the auto focus is so fast and so silent that I was worried it wasn’t working!
  • It's great for travel due to its size and effective focal length, and also the WR (weather resistant) durability
