Review on ๐ท Fujinon XF 23mm F1.4 R Lens by Quc Bnhย (MC) แ
A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!
A very good lens that surprised me a lot Pushing it head-on with the Canon 35L, I was very impressed with the excellent sharpness, especially in the corners - the kenon comes out sharp somewhere around F3.5-F4, the fujik - barely covered already shows an excellent result At the same time, it is almost twice as light and much smaller. Elka, of course, will catch up in bokeh / pattern, but still, for a cropped 1.4 lens, this is a very good result However, it's easier to see the picture, but I'm not sure that will miss the link dropbox. Com/s/pu4bvpyys8cx1b8/35L%20vs%2023_1.4. Jpg?dl=0 Ah, glare - everything is fine too, nothing to complain about yet The lens perfectly closes the niche of "apartment-interior" portraiture / genre, although for the second, it may be better to look at pancakes
- - small and light (compared to "adult" 35mm counterparts) - nimble - sharp with open - good edges - small vignette and chromaticity
- - not a very convenient way to switch AF / MF - this is implemented by shifting the focus ring, in the likeness of old nikkors - although this method looks excellent with a hidden distance scale, it does not differ in speed or convenience; in addition, there is no mechanical connection between the lenses and the ring - turning the ring still works the motor - I would like the diaphragm ring to be tighter - often clings to a finger in general, this is the problem of "retro" controls - the convenience is slightly reduced, at the cost of the "wow" effect of torsion - the lens is pleasantly metallic, but the lens hood is plastic. greedy
