Fujifilm XF23mm F2 R WR

[Manx-T10]

I'm considering this to use with my X-T10. Would I notice a meaningful difference over using my bundled 18-55mm lens set at the same focal length i.e. 23mm?

Any advice appreciated.

Just that the 23mm is f/2 but they're both awesome lenses

There won't be anything too obvious unless you pixel peep. You will get more bokeh since the 23/2 is slightly faster and it will be a little sharper than the zoom. The biggest difference you notice will be the size and how it handles because it's smaller and lighter.

Hi Guys,

Many thanks for the advice. I decided to stick with my 18-55mm lens for now, however I have bought the 27mm f2.8 pancake lens to use in more discrete locations and street photography. That seems so far to be a very good choice.

Good for you!  I have two copies of the 18-55 and I also own the 16-55 2.8.  Guess which one I usually pick to take with me: 18-55.  LOL  I also own the 23 1.4, 35 1.5 and 60 2.4 -- But the 18-55 is just an awesome lens.
