More expensive than the XF 23mm f/2 R WR and XF 35mm f/2 WR; Bokeh isn't as dreamy as the XF 56mm f/1.2 R or XF 56mm f/1.2 APD ASPH

The quality of the images created using this lens don't disappoint, and by opening the lens to its widest aperture setting of f/2 it's possible to create a pleasing separation between near and far subjects.

The Fujinon XF23mm F1.4 R is a fast prime for Fujifilm's X system of mirrorless cameras. It offers a moderate wideangle field of view equivalent to a 35mm lens on full frame. It has traditional aperture and manual focus rings, and the latter has distance and depth of field scales too.

Absolutely brilliant lens. Fast with excellent image quality across the frame and at all apertures. This lens creates a great perspective, and is ideal for travel and street photography. The fast aperture enables easy subject isolation and produces excellent bokeh.

The Fujinon XF 35mm F2 R WR ($399.95) is the second 35mm prime for Fujifilm's mirrorless camera system. It's smaller and less expensive than the 35mm f/1.4 that launched with the system, and adds weather sealing to boot. It doesn't capture as much light as an f/1.4 prime, but the XF 35mm F2 is an optical gem, even when shot wide open. If you've got a Fuji X camera and are in the market for a standard-angle prime lens, it doesn't get much better than this one. It's an easy pick for Editors' Choice honors. DesignThe XF 35mm F2 is a small lens, even by mirrorless standards. It measures 1.8 by 2.4 inches (HD), weighs just 6 ounces, and supports 43mm front filters. A lens hood is included. It screws into the filter thread, so you will have to unscrew it to add or remove a filter. That's not a huge deal, and there is a bayonet mount around the outside of the lens. It's not out yet, but Fujifilm is releasing a metal hood that will mount on the bayonet, which will give you ready access to...

The Fujifilm Fujinon XF 23mm F1.4 R ($899.99) is a wide-aperture prime lens for Fuji X cameras that covers a classic 35mm field of view in full-frame terms. Its f/1.4 f-stop means that it can capture a heck of a lot of light, and also create a shallow depth of field.

Lacks stabilization and weather sealing; Pricey
