Fujis greatest XF lens


miguel

Recommended Posts

I am an ex Nikon user and a professional photographer and have the 90, 16, 23, 35 and 50-140 zoom lenses.

I have to say that the 90mm is the sharpest lens of the bunch, by a long way too.

I love this lens, when I look at the images I want to stop using all the other lenses, its so good. I may have been lucky and bought an excellent copy, this is one lens I value above all the others.

 

If it has a problem, its without OIS, you need to shoot hand held at 1/500 minimum for the best IQ. Wide open its excellent, f2.8 to f5.6 it is outstanding.

 

When the new XH-1 with IBIS arrives, that should make this lens the greatest ever,

I am only hoping that IBIS does not have any adverse effect on the IQ of this lens

Whilst I agree the 90mm is a very good lens, I like the 56mm 1.2  just as much, so those two for me are very close as greatest XF lens so far.........

but we haven't seen the 200mm yet! Also the 55-200 for a zoom is a excellent performer. We could discuss this to the end of time! Everyone has a different

view. The important thing is we are blessed with a company producing excellent products for us to enjoy!

    • Looking more like the next Fuji camera we see will be an X-T50 but it is still a rumor and no specs have been published.
    • Hey guys, The shutter on/off button switch may be loose on mine. After turning camera on and pressing the shutter/holding close to the area, the camera will turn off and say 'sensor cleaning'. This doesn't happen if I'm shooting via touch screen at all. Everything else is functional. Anyone else experience this before? Would love a much cheaper fix since Fuji Canada just quoted me $700 CAD to fix it, and considering everything else is functional except that part I'm not even sure why MPMB Main Board parts is being replaced😕 I got no explanation from them either.
    • As far as I know the firmware is not country specific. Are you sure that the filename has not been changed ( I am told this can happen with mac os). That's the only thing I can think of.
    • My x-t5 does not exhibit the focusing switch behaviour as you report it, so that is very strange and indicative of a fault. It does not matter whether the flash is attached or not. Once you set the camera for your studio flash, say 1/250th at f5.6, the camera, which is showing you what you will get at that exposure without the flash, will show a black screen unless the ambient light is brighter than what you would typically get indoors. That is why, as Jerry says, you have to set preview exp/wb to off. I have set a button for this.
    • I connected to FRAME.IO a while back and it works fine, but the camera wouldn't connect to the internet all of a sudden today and would get stuck on the reset screen, including initializing and even switching USB Connection mode. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?
