Great lens. AF works ok, (not the Fuji X cameras strength) as a 60mm lens. Light, small, well made.

Autofocus for macro on Fuji X camera is completely useless

Gary Wolstenholme reviews the new Fujifilm Fujinon XF 60mm f/2.4 R Macro Lens with the Fujifilm X-Pro1.

Excellent sharpness from edge to edge; even at wide apertures; Low distortion; Very Lightweight; Traditional design; Excellent build

Issue with internal reflections under certain conditions; Slow autofocus at close distances

The Fujinon XF 60mm f/2.4 R Macro lens is a fast mid-range telephoto prime lens for the X-Pro1. Being unable to provide a 1:1 reproduction ratio, it's not a true macro lens and would be better classified as a 'short telephoto'.

It's offered with the Fujifilm X-Pro 1; You require superior performance and robust build quality; You want a lens with excellent flatness of field; You like shooting with filters.

You need true macro capabilities, You require fast and accurate focusing for close-ups; Don't buy this lens if, You need true macro capabilities, You require fast and accurate focusing for close-ups

This Fuji XF 60mm f/2.4 is an aspherical 90mm-equivalant macro lens with superior optical performance.

IQ wize, it's the best lens for the XP . Sharpness is incredible, bokey is very nice, there is no AC, no vignetting and no geometrical distortion. It's a flawless lens.

Outstanding Image quality

slow AF ; only 1/2

The Fujinon XF 60mm f/2.4 R macro is the best of the three initial lenses for the X-mount. The image quality is already very good at f/2.4 and bitingly sharp around f/4. The resolution remains impressive till about f/11.

XF 60mm f/2.4 R Macro This telephoto macro lens for the Fujifilm X-Pro1 camera provides a field of view equivalent to a 91mm lens on a 35mm camera, has a bright f/2.4 maximum aperture, produces half life size magnification at its closest focusing distance and costs around ￡600.

Optically excellent, and great build quality. Focus is a little slow, but very accurate. I don't care for the huge hood, but it is all metal and well made. Overall a good purchase. Works very well for portraits and is sharp right from f2.4 onward. Recommended as a nice compliment to the 35 f1.4.

Great, sharp lens for macro and portrait photos

None

Great pictures, bokeh, and build quality. Feels very solid. Others have complained about its slow focus speed, but I haven't really noticed unless the lighting is pretty low (like iso 3200 low)
