(I know this shot/editing is ugly but I was too lazy to make it better)

 

Hey guys it's me again with another lens comparison test. Did a different one before: http://www.fuji-x-forum.com/topic/317-135mm-lens-comparison/

 

This time I compared three different 18mm lenses Fuji is offering.

 

XF 18mm f/2 (X-E2)

X70's 18,5mm f/2.8

XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 (X-E2)

 

The shots are unedited (fine L) Jpegs (SOOC). I just cropped them and stitched them together. The settings of each camera were set to default (0) except the WB (I adjust it manually with a white peace of paper). ISO 200. Provia. Aperture priority.

Cause I don't have a tripod that's so low I used a chair where I put the cameras on top so the frame can vary a bit. Sorry for that.

Click on each pictures to open and maybe download on Flickr in full resolution.

If you have any questions please ask. If you have any complaints about my test please be polite within your criticism. I'm not a pro so this test might be far away from being perfect.

 

Feel free to share some shots/comparisons of your 18mm Fuji lenses.

 

So now I hope you will enjoy my little CD collection ;)

Is it just me? I do not see real differences. Some expert out there who can does?

 

looking at images on flickr at f/2.8 the difference seem slight to me,

 

Suprisingly that was my first impression too. I think it just shows how good all Fuji lenses are. I will do some different tests especially between the X70 and the XF18F2. My first impression of the X70 was: Oh damn is this little thing sharp!!! But after I did this test I was kinda "shocked" that it actually doesn't perform (much) better.

      X Raw Studio Doesn't Create Drive for Camera When Connected

      X Raw Studio works with image files on your computer - not the image files on the camera card

      Hello. Thankyou,now Is all more clear: I have take some time in your link. Let tell you. I has totaly forget this machine have "compress picture option" and not Only "compress lossless" anyway not change the experiment. RAW  and this last two format look like same result about Number of recording picture. Can tell all results in this: in raw you can make 17 pictures for second. Is wrong. Is about One single Press and wait buffer. Full 30/20/10/8 not change. After 17 Need Press again. You not can Press before "redgreen light recording Is on".   With preshot you can have 25  are more 7 pictures . The story change Only in jpg shot only. In jpg at 30 you have 30 picture but redgreen light off very Fast so you can shot very quicly. At 20 shot Is about start look like infinite shot. 60. So the best performance are this last One  about Speed and recording picture after camera working witout big limit. I want take a shot about Italy cyclet Just for passion. I think i Will use this last setting.  After Need check when battery not are full change and ambient temp.  Anyway my cam look like exactly specific about you link. Im Happy my cam working perfectly.

      I do not use Flickr, so I do not know what their BB code is. All I did was copy the second link you provided, (starting at https: and ending at  _k.jpg — leave off the [img] and [/img] tags) and pasted it into the message. After a moment, a message popped up asking if I wanted to paste it as the image or as a plain link. I did this twice, the first time I had it paste in as the image and the second time as a link. Nothing fancy or tricky.

      So do I just copy the BB code from flickr and paste it anywhere on the page like other forums or is there some other trick I need to perform to get it to post?
