FUJIFILM 16647434 Fujinon XC35mmF2 Lens, Black

For this price range this lenses is perfect, love the colors and the performance in low lights.

I bought this last Christmas when the price was still £169 to pair with my X-E1. Coming from Nikon system previously also using 35mm, I'm very pleased with this purchase as it's very good pair with my camera, lightweight, sharp and creates really nice bokeh. Just to make note that there's no aperture ring in this lens and also it's not weather-sealed so more caution is necessary when using in harsh, rainy conditions. But overall, I love it!

While this is not a general-use lens, it won't be your catch-all like the 18-55mm zoom or the 27mm prime, it's really great at its price. It's something you swap to when you spot the right target. I'm finding it best for intimate candid portraits amongst friends, getting wonderful mid-conversation faces without being too invasive. I've never tried the XF version this is based on, but the lack of aperture ring doesn't bother me, and the plastic build quality actually makes it super light which I appreciate a lot from this lens. While it's a focal length covered by my zoom, I just prefer the pictures that come out of it when shooting at 35mm.This is my first prime lens with Fuji and I do think it marks a great start, as it's getting me to think about the advantages of primes and teaching me to identify the situations these lenses thrive in and how to capitalise on those opportunities.

I bought this lens to tide me over until I buy something a bit "higher quality". Its really good! At f2 it has a beautiful softness. At f16 its nice and sharp. Probably won't replace it now as I'm having fun with it.Great value for money. Perfect for family and photos of life happening.Its a plastic build so I wouldn't want to drop it, but still very sturdy.100% would recommend.

Picture quality is equal to the much more expensive metal counterpart…. My only negative is you need to watch the lens cap cover as this has a tendency to fall off

Amazing little lens fir the price, optically the same as the XF35mm and takes lovely photos..

Great product, great price, slightly cheap feel. No aperture ring but that's why it's an XC and not an XF. Autofocus works well seems to be quick enough. I use this with an XT3 and I've got no complaints about this product, perfect score would need to have some form of weather sealing but optically it's great.

Great lens, fantastic photos. Very light also
