Fujifilm XF 56mm F1.2 R

The Fujifilm XF 56mm F1.2 R is a superb addition to the X-series range, offering a classic portraiture focal length and an ultra-fast aperture that produces simply beautiful background bokeh with a minimum of fuss. Optically it's an almost perfect...

Superb quality. Sharp right into the corners at f1.2., f1.2 focal ratio delivers very shallow depth of field with nice bokeh., f1.2 focal ratio great in low light: gathers twice as much light as f1.8 lens., Very well-corrected optics with minimal...

Current X-series bodies limit use at f1.2 with 1/4000 maximum shutter., Modest closest focusing distance of 0.7m means it's no macro lens., Blurred specular highlights rendered as heptagons as aperture closes., No optical stabilisation, so hold...

A must have lens for fujifilm portrait shooters. Excellent IQ even wide open.

Aperture ring a little easier to turn than on some of the newer Fuji lenses.

Really nice lens with good image quality. Decent subject separation possible with the wide aperture. Built well, and also balances well on the X-T2.

Relatively slow and noisy autofocus. Supplied lens cap flimsy and rubbish. Was replaced very quickly with a third party one. Lens hood terrible and difficult to attach.

Beautiful lensehich renders beautifully and has buttery smooth bokeh!

Can hunt occasionally

Sharp, fast and well built

not the fastest focusing but good enough

Well made lens very sharp and great for portraits.

This is, quite simply, a stunning lens. The image quality is excellent and the build quality is on a par with lenses costing twice the price. As you would expect from an f1.2 lens, the depth of field is very narrow when fully open and the bokeh is very...

It is quite heavy and I wouldn't be inclined to use it on anything other than the X-T1. It works best with the optional grip on the camera.

High quality lens that takes crisp photos. Makes shooting quick and easy.
