Fujifilm XF35 mm F1.4 R Lens

Product Information

is capable of producing edge-to-edge sharp images when stopped down, but does suffer from minor edge softness up until f/2. First, it reduces flare and ghosting, which can spoil shots, and second, it boosts colours and image sharpness.

Ultimately, the decision to purchase this lens in 2024 depends on your specific needs, shooting style, and budget. More important than sharpness, autofocus speed, or build quality is something a bit more ineffable: the 'character' of the lens.

This is the lens that I would say has, hands-down, the best “character” out of all three of these lenses, and it might be one of the best I’ve ever used from any manufacturer.

The images below were captured during various outings to see how the lens would react in different lighting conditions, and it never let me down once. This, I am sure, you will know, and I only mention it for those just starting out in photography, as we all have been there at the beginning, purchased a lens because of the reviews and images, only then to find it doesn't exactly suit our requirements.

Additionally make sure your User-Agent is not empty and is something unique and descriptive and try again. From time to time I still miss the silent autofocus, speed, and assurance of having a weather-resistant lens.Still, my biggest complaint about this lens, and the xF35mm f2, is they are a bit too expensive for what they are. This is excellent performance, especially in light of the lack of mechanical vignetting, which other lenses use to hide their coma. At that range I usually stop down anyways so probably the performance wide open is not ideal of the 35mm at that close distances.
