It makes the 27mm seem like a mud lens.

I love the square metal hood for the 35mm f1.4 and the 18mm f/2, and I wish they continued that trend with all their lenses.

The fact that it's not as fast as the 23mm or 56mm doesn't bother me

The smallest non-pancake lens I've ever owned was Canon's nifty-fifty (50mm f1.8)

it's not sharp as 35mm 1.4 at same aperture of 2.0 2

This is the perfect 50mm equiv

This lens is great, especially if you love the 35mm F1.4 but really want something weather proof for those bleh days

But this newer 35mm is definitely sharper at all apertures at longer ranges

23mm is an improvement, but the 35mm F2 feels even better

I never thought my 23mm was all that hefty, but the 35mm F2 is easily half the overall mass

The "special look and rendering" of the older Fuji 35 f/1.4 is completely retained in this XF35mmF2 R WR optic, and the sharpness is on par with the superb Fujinon 60mm f/2.4 Macro lens

I had and loved the 35mm 1.4

I'd say look to a nice wide angle lens like the 14mm, 16mm or 16-55mm

I'm a BIG fan of the classic 50mm prime

Stopping down seems to help, but it is nowhere near as sharp as the 35mm f/1.4

I love the 35mm

This beauty takes sharp photos, perhaps not as sharp as the original XF 35mm version, with excellent color rendition

The 16mm and 18-135MM have both done well in this

It is not as sharp as 16mm 1.4 don't even expect that sharpness, definitely you can notice haze/softness notice but not to the level of annoyment

After using the Fuji 35mm f/1.4 for several months on an XT-1, and marveling at its' sharpness, clarity, and image rendition (albeit not super-fast AF), I was excited to try the newer, Weather-Resistant f/2 version
