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 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.

Extremely sharp stopped down; Very good sharpness in the centre at maximum aperture; Lightweight; Useful hyperfocal scale; Excellent build

Not as sharp towards the edges of the frame at maximum aperture as you may expect
