Fujifilm XF Fujinon 23mm f/1.4 R Lens Review

Sporting the same field of view as a 35mm lens does on a 35mm camera, this lens should be a popular choice for the wish list of many Fuji X-series camera owners, especially with that fast f/1.4 maximum aperture.
Pros:
  • Extremely sharp stopped down
  • Very good sharpness in the centre at maximum aperture
  • Lightweight
  • Useful hyperfocal scale
  • Excellent build
Cons:
  • Not as sharp towards the edges of the frame at maximum aperture as you may expect

Fujinon XF 23mm f/1.4 R (Fujifilm) - Review / Test Report

The Fujinon XF 23mm f/1.4 R is a highly attractive addition to the Fujifilm lens lineup. It combines an ultra-large aperture with high quality results. At large aperture settings the center quality is already pretty high whereas the borders/corners are at least on a good level.

Fujifilm Fujinon XF 23mm F1.4 R

The Fujifilm Fujinon XF 23mm F1.4 R ($899.99) is a wide-aperture prime lens for Fuji X cameras that covers a classic 35mm field of view in full-frame terms. Its f/1.4 f-stop means that it can capture a heck of a lot of light, and also create a shallow depth of field.
Pros:
  • Sharp from edge to edge at f/1.4
  • Minimal distortion
  • Manual focus clutch
  • Aperture ring
Cons:
  • Lacks stabilization and weather sealing
  • Pricey

Fujifilm Fujinon XF 23mm F2 R WR Review

The Fujifilm Fujinon XF 23mm F2 R WR is an extremely crisp, compact lens for X mirrorless cameras. It's a fine choice for any photographer looking for a weather-sealed wide-angle prime. The Fujinon XF 23mm F2 R WR ($449) is the second in Fujifilm's new line of compact, weather-sealed f/2 prime lenses for its X mirrorless camera system. It's an excellent performer, delivering crisp images from edge to to edge, in a package that matches well with the company's premium cameras. It only captures half the light as the larger, premium XF 23mm F1.4 R ($899.00 at Amazon) at its maximum aperture, but it also comes in at half the price. If you don't lust after the more extreme depth of field control offered at f/1.4, the XF 23mm F2 R is an excellent optic, and one that's worthy of being called Editors' Choice. Design The XF 23mm F2 ($449.99 at Amazon) measures just 2.4 by 2.0 inches (HD), weighs a scant 6.4 ounces, and supports 43mm filters. The XF 23mm F1.4 is a larger, heavier optic, coming in at 2.8 by 2.5 inches and weighing 10.6 ounces. Neither 23mm lens has image stabilization, a feature that Fujifilm has, to date, reserved for zoom lenses. The F2 lens is available...
Pros:
  • Very compact
  • Crisp optics
  • Minimal distortion
  • Even illumination
  • Weather-sealed design
  • Physical aperture control
  • Affordable
Cons:
  • Omits optical stabilization
  • No focus clutch
