XF 56mm f/1.2 R


The famous and beloved XF 56mm f/1.2 R is considered *the* portrait lens for the Fujifilm X-mount system. Equivilant to a 85mm lens on a full frame camera, or 28.5 degrees angle of view, this is indeed a lens created for the classical portrait. The f/1.2 aperture further allows you to engage the creative energy, offering a really shallow depth of field. That wide aperture obviously also allows a lot of light, which further makes this lens perfect for indoor and lowlight situations. Not surprisingly this makes it a popular lens for wedding photographers.

It is a lens, which is found among the more expensive Fujinon lenses, but for those who need this kind of lens, this is the perfect lens to get.

An Interesting Day in Fuji-Lens Land!

Two interesting things to happen today: A First Look at the Viltrox XF 33mm f1.4 Prime AF Lens The first online look at Viltrox' new 33mm f/1.4 prime lens, as well as verification of a new Fujinon lens to come. First things first, I know that a lot of Fuji-users have been VERY interested in the three new prime lenses, which Viltrox announced late 2019, and which were expected in the beginning of 2020. Recently they announced that the first of them, the Viltrox XF 33mm f1.4 APS-C Prime Autofocus Lens, now is ready for orders. Of course a lot of people were curious as to the performance and built quality of this lens, and what to expect. Viltrox' 85mm f/1.8 prime lens was highly recommended and received a lot of positive reviews, particularly after the last update fixed some initial autofocus issues in continuous focus node. Now we finally have our first look at the new 33mm prime, namely by Mathias Burling, who gives his first impressions of it on his YouTube channel...

XF 27mm f/2.8

The XF 27mm f/2.8 is one of Fujifilm's few actual pancake lenses, the only other being the 18mm f/2 lens. It offers an equivalent of 41mm on a full frame camera, or a 55.5 degrees angle of view. This lens has no weather sealing, is not considered particularly fast, and has a rumor for not having particular good resolution. It has a rumor for being a kind of "meh" lens, only being attractive for its cheap price. Yet, many reviewers express surprise when they review this little gem. Apparently it has more than what the eyes sees, particularly for the casual street photographer or documentarist, who wants something wider than the 35mm lenses, but still a little tighter than the 23mm lenses. It is a lens which both allows you to take in the scene, but also to get intimate with the subject, combining the best of the 35mm and 23mm worlds. And did I mention that it is a cheap lens? Also, the rumor of not having a particular good resolution might be unjustified. Check more b...
