Fujifilm XF 27mm F2.8

Made in China but....

This lens is a real surprise considering price but it holds its own in all price brackets. I am really impressed with its very crisp and contrasty images and without lens stabilization no less.

From the outset, Fujifilm has been very clear regarding its vision for its mirrorless system. Rather than try to provide an all-encompassing assortment of lenses, the company has focused almost exclusively on well-built, wide-aperture lenses with retro appeal and physical controls.

Pretty good optically and super compact

This lens is an odd focal length falling between the traditional (35 mm FF ) equivalents of 3mm and 50mm, but the optical quality is pretty good, and the max aperture is reasonably wide, and the ting is tiny so on the M1 I got as a toe-dipping into the Fuji system it rivals the 100T and like that...

Great lens

Great lens, nearly the same then the human eye! Light weight.

Very similar to the lens on the well received Fuji X100F , this 27mm pancake lens is a great all-round prime. The 41mm equivalent focal length is suited to everything from landscapes to street photography, and Fuji has kept the weight down to a minute 78g, thanks in part to excluding a manual...

Crisp, compact addition to your Fuji

I purchased this pancake lens for my wife after she expressed interest in having a smaller lens for her Fuji X-T10, making the whole kit more compact and possible to fit in a small purse. She absolutely loves this lens for street photography and travel.

Too Slow And Noisy

Firstly I will start by saying this lens is a really nice compact lens that produces nice sharp photos. Problem is that it is slow to focus and noisy as it focuses which I have not experienced with a prime lens before. I could not tolerate these shortcomings and sold my copy.

Fujifilm Fujinon XF 27mm F2.8 Review

The Fujifilm Fujinon XF 27mm F2.8 is a tiny prime lens for Fuji X cameras. It's very sharp in the center, but edge performance isn't the greatest. Fans of compact prime lenses are sure to be excited by the Fujifilm Fujinon XF 27mm F2.8 ($449.95). The slim lens is compatible with Fuji's X mirrorless system, making some of the smaller cameras available almost pocketable. It doesn't have an aperture ring, which will turn off some Fuji owners, but delivers strong image quality in a small package. It's a good lens, though not quite as good as the slightly larger XF 23mm F2 R WR, which is brighter and includes protection from dust and splashes for the same price. Design Let's talk about size—it's the XF 27mm's ($449.00 at Amazon) biggest draw. The lens measures 2.4 by 0.9 inches (HD) and weighs just 2.8 ounces. It almost feels like nothing when attached to your camera, and I was able to slide an X-E3 into the pocket of my winter coat with ease with the lens attached. There's no hood, although you can use 39mm front filters if desired. You can get it in black or silver. The angle of view is about 40mm, in full-frame terms, when p...

new

Ok, works well and looks good. The only thing is it has a tiny short hair line Mark or something on the face of the lens, not really noticable and will not affect picture quality. Won't clean or come off.

A well-kept secret. Much, much better than you've been led to believe.
