Review: Stunning Image Quality that Rivals the Best on the Market Today - This Fuji 35mm prime lens for Fuji X-mount cameras takes photos that are just, wow .. AMAZING. It's simply difficult to believe that a smaller format lens like this can hold its own against the larger Nikon and Canon lenses, and not in any way to take away from those, but after shooting for a good deal of time with this lens, I would have to say that it is every bit the peer of its more well-known brethren. The image clarity is simply astounding: sharp, rich photos that can achieve outstanding bokeh due to its very large F/1.4 aperture, and the defocusing effect is really nice due to the number of shutter petals used in its design. But this is a lens that you might just want to beyond portraits: use it outdoors, on the street, really anywhere, because the images are just simply that good. You're not going to have a wide angle capability here because you are working at 35mm (about 52mm equivalent), but once you start seeing how the shots come out, you'll start forgiving that shortcoming. Add to this that the lens is so light that once you've put it on your X-A1, X-E1, X-M1, or X-Pro, and you'll nearly be working at point-and-shoot weights. This lens does not come with built-in image stabilization. But once you see the photos, it likely won't matter to you. And because the Fuji X cameras shoot very low noise at very high ISO levels, coupled with the fact the lens opens up all the way to F/1.4, image stabilization really isn't that important. The lens is a bit pricey, but most reviewers are coming down on the side that some of these Fuji X-mount lenses (and this is one of them) are comparable with professional brand lenses many times their price. This is simply an amazing set of lenses that deserve your investigation if you have not looked into them yet. This lens alone might be all you need to draw you into looking into the Fuji X-mount system. Five stars, and absolutely without hesitation! PLUSSES ++ Very good image quality, with good color and sharpness ++ HUGE aperture allows for low-light shooting and good bokeh ++ Lightweight and generally small ++ "XF" build quality puts it in the league of Fuji's other amazing "XF" lenses MINUSES -- A tad expensive for what it is (but it goes on sale, so keep your eye's peeled) -- Shutter blades pretty "clacky" during autofocus -- Autofocus speed not the fastest -- The newer XF 35mm F/2 is much faster, quieter, smaller, and much cheaper (so if you don't need that extra F/1.4 aperture, go with the newer model) -- No lens case supplied (I know I am harping on this, but all Fuji lenses should come with beautiful Fuji lens cases) Update after shooting with this lens for a month in France: This lens is just crispy good. Images can be so sharp as to be startling. I used this lens in museums, in cathedrals, in train stations, really just about anywhere without thought of low light in the setting, and just knocked off shot after shot of gorgeous images. You have to use your "built-in zoom" (i.e., your feet) when using the lens, but that's just a matter of weening yourself off the convenience that zoom lenses provide (and that also account for their general inability to reach the image quality of primes; the world of camera equipment is a world of trade-offs!). And, because of the very wide aperture (F/1.4), you can pretty much not worry about the lack of image stabilization. Just take time to compose your shot, and the images can be just amazing. Coupled with the high-ISO/low noise performance of the Fuji X cameras, this wide-aperture lens just continues to amaze. After shooting with it for weeks, I can see firsthand why so many people rave about it, as they do for many of the Fuji primes. It's light and small, too, so when you slap it on your X mount camera, you are at near point-and-shoot weight. The aperture blades and the focusing motor are a bit noisy at times (there is a firmware update for many of the Fuji cameras to help reduce this, as well as firmware updates for the lens itself; make sure you have updated both your camera AND your lens to the latest firmware from the Fuji support site), but in most settings, you'll never notice it (also turning off continuous focusing will help with focusing noise will help). But this is an extraordinary lens that I say will compete with the best of the larger brands, and at a fraction of the weight. It's easily a five-star lens on nearly all counts.
Review: Great quality lens and results - This is the fastest optic for the X family until the 23mm arrives mid-Oct. This is a great lens with roughly a 50mm field of view on 35mm eqiv. The lens is sharp and I like the aperture ring. The styling is great and the results are top notch. The only downers are the sluggish AF performance and the loudish AF motor. It reminds me of my 50mm D on my Nikon several years ago. Compared to the whisper quiet performance of, say, the 18-55 or even the 55-200, it's noisy. But the images are worth the wait and the audible irritation. I've found it only a nuance when trying not to disturb those around me. It's really not that bad, hence it still having 5 stars due to overall performance with image output. If you're used to the likes of the Nikon AFS, Canon USM or even the Sigma HSM, this well feel slow and loud, but it does deliver on image quality. Bottom line, if you shoot with the interchangeable X series and need/want the 50mm equiv. that so many shooters enjoy, this is the ticket. Nothing else comes close nor is anything else this fast. The 18-55 is good at a similar focal point, but not as sharp in my book, and certainly nowhere near as fast. A great, light, fast (optically) lens for the X system.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this come with a lens hood?**
A: I just received mine last week which came without a good. Because the Fujifilm website indicates this lens comes with a hood, I emailed the seller Southtown Camera thus morning about it. Still waiting for their reply.

**Q: Is focus fast on this with the X-T1?**
A: I am responding spring of 2019 and when I bought this lens it was rather slow. Since a number of updates, both the X-T1 and this lens focus much faster. Unlike much of Fuji’s competition, when software will fix a problem, Fuji releases updates instead of announcing a new body or lens as a fix. Consequently, Fuji is slowly building a fiercely loyal customer base as well as some of the best photographic equipment available. In my case, had I invested in brand “Y” or “Z” I would have been forced to buy upgraded hardware instead of downloading free updates to correct similar problems. As it stands now, both the body and lens produce results I thought were not possible when they were new.

**Q: Is this 35mm the XF R (newer) model with Super EBC lens coating manuf #16240755 or is it the older version?**
A: C. Brown is correct--there is only one version (as of 1/2013).

**Q: Is this lens weather-sealed?**
A: No. The 35mm F2.0 is a newer lens and is weather sealed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Value and a very nice lens
*by M***T on April 10, 2012*

So why 5 stars? It's because it's a damn good lens for the money. It's not perfect, but for $600 what can you expect. Sure, I have lenses at similar focal lengths that are superior, but at a much much higher price. It's a very well built lens but also light weight. It has an all metal housing, the hood is also metal but with a plastic connector. The focus is nicely damped with a good feeling metal grip. The aperture ring turns smoothly and clicks at 1/3 stops, although I wish the click was a little more firm. The lens attaches firmly to the body at a very tight tolerance. There's no play at all. The included cap is cheap plastic, but who really cares about the lens cap. The included rubber lenshood cap is a nice touch. Overall a very solid lens that reminds me of my old MF Zuiko glass from the 70's/80's. It's focus-by-wire so it lacks the feel of a true MF lens, but paired with the Xpro1, you're focusing through an LCD anyways, so you're not going to get that feel anyways. The lag is extremely minimal (although the distance scale on the camera has a slight delay). As for AF, it's fast in daylight, but in low light it's a bit on the slow side. I think this is more of a camera than a lens issue so perhaps firmware updates will improve this. Most important is of course image quality. This is where the lens really stands out. Tack sharp, good contrast, nice color, good control of CA and very nice circular bokeh. When it comes to image quality of 50mm & 50mm equiv lenses, this one is up there.
