Fujifilm Fujinon XF 14mm F2.8 R

 

The Fujifilm Fujinon XF 14mm F2.8 R is an impressively compact f/2.8 wide-angle lens with sharp optics.

Very sharp. Minimal distortion. Manual focus clutch. 7.1-inch close focus. Compact.

Lacks optical stabilization. Aperture ring too easily turned. Pricey.

Wide-angle shooters should take a close look at the Fujifilm Fujinon XF 14mm F2.8 R. This lens is quite good, but it is priced accordingly. The 21mm-equivalent prime lens is one that isn't available in competing mirrorless systems—Sony, Samsung, and...

Fujifilm XF 14mm F2.8 R

 

The Fujinon XF 14mm F2.8 R is the fifth lens for Fujifilm's nascent X system of mirrorless cameras. It's a premium wideangle prime, with a focal length specifically chosen to match the full (21mm equivalent) field of view of the X-Pro1's optical...

Extremely sharp across the frame at normal working apertures (F5.6 - F11) ; Minimal distortion ; Minimal chromatic aberration ; Well-implemented manual focusing ; Quiet autofocus ; Solid construction

Soft corners at F2.8 ; Moderately strong vignetting at F2.8 (corrected by camera's JPEG processing) ; Loose click-stops on aperture ring ; No way of combining manual focus and autofocus ; Slowish autofocus ; Expensive

The XF 14mm F2.8 R is a solid, well-made lens that sports traditional aperture and manual focus rings. It's not bad at F2.8 and offers excellent image quality stopped down, where superb cross-frame sharpness and minimal distortion make it ideal for...

Fujifilm XF 14mm f2.8 R Review

 

The Fujifilm XF 14mm F2.8 R is the widest lens in the fledgling XF line-up and is therefore worthy of attention from anyone interested in capturing everything from landscapes to up close and personal street photos. As well as being wide, it's also a...

Fujifilm Fujinon XF14mm F2.8 R review

 

It's one of Fujifilm's oldest lenses - but is this wide-angle prime still a good option for X-photographers?

Fujifilm Fujinon XF 14 mm f/2.8 R

 

Currently (October 2013) the Fujinon XF 14 mm f/2.8 R is a lens with the widest angle of view in the whole Fujifilm line-up, giving a field of view on a level of 90 degrees. Although the X system is relatively young our choice of lenses is quite rich,...

Solid casing made of metal ; Sensational image quality in the frame centre ; Excellent correction of the chromatic aberration (longitudinal and lateral) ; Imperceptible spherical aberration ; Negligible distortion ; Very low astigmatism ; Good work...

High vignetting

Fujinon XF 14mm f/2.8 R (Fujifilm) - Review / Test Report

 

The Fujinon XF 14mm f/2.8 R is a highly attractive ultra-wide lens with few shortcomings. The most important factor for an ultra-wide lens is certainly image sharpness and the Fujinon delivers here. It is bitingly sharp in the image center and good to...

Fujinon XF 14mm f/2.8 R review by spochana

 

Finally I bought this lens after using Fuji X-E1 for a few months and felt that 18 mm was not enough for the wide end. I intended to wait for their 10-24 mm zoom but it shall be a while before they release it (perhaps at the end of 2013). Overall I am...

Sharp Image from center to edges, low distortion

A bit slow auto-focus compared to 18-55, loud mechanism
