About this deal
In reality this lens will come out of the bag for wide-open creating image making or for die-hard "film-feel" video shooters. Yes, you save money compared to, say, the Fujifilm 23mm f2 lens, but the quality of Fuji’s lenses is as good as it gets for this type of glass.
Coatings are better, and adapting a lens nearly always adds in softness or internal reflections that cut the image quality. Likewise, owning the Meike 35mm made me realized that 35mm is my sweet spot so I had to sell it to get myself a better lens, the Fuji 35mm f/1. Other characteristics worth mentioning is that there is some barrel distortion, and some noticeable vignetting.
Just fixed the aperture around f8-f11 and fixed the focus like 2-3 meters away from you and the camera.
lens and yet most things in the frame are sharp if my main subject is at least 2 meters away from me.It has a silver ring at the front which makes the style even more fitted with the whole vintage look that Fujifilm cameras roll with. It does have some faults and quirks, but, considering how little it goes for, it’s easy to overlook those issues, and perhaps even embrace them. I heard that X-T1 and X-T2 has split screen mode in viewfinder, which displays the full view in the left of the viewfinder, and split the the view with vertical line, in the right it displays the 10x magnified center of the image. In the right situations, it can produce some really nice images as long as you work within the limitations. is a great lens to bring along with you all day not just because of its size and weight but also because of its focal length, and aperture speed.
