Pros: Construction, compactness, image stamp

Cons: BACK FOCUS!!!

Opinion: Purchased and then resold. Used only half a day... I couldn't believe my eyes! I thought that problems like the Back focus on mirrorless system were just a memory... But I was wrong. The lens itself would be superb, a bit soft at 1.4 but for me it was not a problem, indeed, I am not a fun of absolute sharpness. The backfocus I found though was excessive. A problem that already occurs at short distances, in a reduced way, and then increases at long distances. The beauty is that we don't talk about it... or we don't talk about it enough. I had to dig well on the net before I came across a topic on Dp review where several complained about this defect (a guy had come to change 5 copies). Magnificent lens if it works, but the purchase is a lottery, strange really that in the various video tests on youtube no one talks about it ...

Pros: A certainty

Cons: May have defects

Opinion: Lens sold and bought back 3 times. The next one will be the 4th, but if it is I will go on the last similar Fuji model. This, for those who want a must spending relatively little on the used market is a lens to try absolutely and, if love will be, to keep. The focal length is perfect, basically a 35 mm, fixed lens used by the greatest photographers of the past. A school not to be missed, its use. All the technical merits can be read on the many and exhaustive reviews. I say that especially but not only in street photography is really exceptional and super fun, and with a very bearable weight as well as perfectly balanced on bodies type xt1 / xt4 etc. And don't tell me that it's analogous to the f2 series.... IT IS NOT SO! Be careful though if you buy it. Make detailed tests, especially at a minimum distance af and at the various openings, on images clearly distinguishable in detail (eg white writings on the black of the camera body or other lens) and cropped. If everything is ok, grab it on the fly!

Pros: Excellent construction and optical quality, extreme clarity, three-dimensionality, versatility focal length

Cons: Not WR, and horrendous supplied lampshed

Opinion: Fantastic optics, the construction quality that is immediately perceived is excellent, it seems almost indestructible so it looks robust and well built. Too bad just for the lack of the WR. Very convenient to be able to pass in manual focus simply by moving the appropriate ring on the lens, which by the way keeps memory of the last focus setting left (typically convenient in my opinion when you want to create special blurred e.g.). Although perhaps not very light, on the X-Pro 3 e.g. it is very well balanced, and it is quite ergonomic in my opinion the grip ring (with which to hold the lens with hand sx eg eg) between the diaphragm ring and the manual activation and focus ring. On the X-Pro 3 it becomes difficult to use machine body and lens with only right hand, but using both hands it becomes very usable. The lens is very clear, with an almost record sharpness perhaps between Fujinon X optics, and what is important is also very usable at TA, that is to say at f 1.4 Autofocus is fast and quite quiet (outside you can not feel it, only perhaps in indoor and very quiet environments it can give perhaps a minimum discomfort, for those with a fine ear at least). And the files produced have a beautiful three-dimensionality and color rendering, very "photogenic" or "filmic" let's say. It is perhaps the quintessential reportage optics, with which you can also do street and some portrait set (with very beautiful blurry), and landscapes, and in this sense therefore very versatile: perhaps even the most versatile, if one has to choose in a trip for example to bring a single lens, this could be the best choice (for focal and quality). The lampshon supplied, however, is horrendous, Personally I have not even tried to mount it (it spoils all the beauty of this optics), and it is really exaggerated, so much so that even without a lampshed it resists the flare very well, and even the rare cases in which it was present, the flare, is still very "soft" and pleasant to see in my opinion. Absolutely recommended anyway, it is perhaps one of the best Fujinon optics, it deserves a full 10 rating!

Pros: Optical quality, construction quality, manual focus

Cons: Lampshed, not wr

Opinion: Fantastic optics, the best ever tried on Fuji. Very nice blurry and for a 35mm eq. on aps-c it is not at all obvious, made colors with excellent progressive nuances, three-dimensionality, sharpness even at full opening, correct optically and not via software. I do not consider it either bulky or heavy, the dimensions count only if you want to use the optical viewfinder on x-pro as it covers a small part of the frame, but I do not use the optical viewfinder on x-pro. If I have to find him a flaw, the fact that he's not wr and the usual plastic lampshed unavailable Fuji. The Af is slightly noisy and not as lightning-fast as the f2, but it doesn't give any problems in practical use.

Pros: Lots of Pros

Cons: Lampshh but ordered immediately together optically the fantastic Metal LH-XF 23 Lampshon.

Opinion: Arrived two hours ago some tests done with various diaphragms and distances. First impression I wonder what weaknesses at this 23 1.4 Fuji I would say difficult maybe AF but I would say behaves very well on my Fuji X-T3 very precise but certainly slow and noisy compared to the 23 2.0 although I have to say that with my Fuji X-T3 setting AF Multi Zone surprises the focus speed on the 23 1.4 Fuji. Perhaps very slight angles drop at the outer corners sharpness at F1.4/2.0 lighter color aberration easy to remove certainly behaves better than 16 1.4 in terms of chromatic aberrations however nothing dramatic on the 23 1.4 Fuji. Paraluce bought immediately optically the lampshon LH-FX 23 for the 23 1.4 Fuji excellent lampshh the original I would say NO as almost all Fuji lampshhs leave something to be desired. Sharpness Contasti Colors little to say I would say excellent focus and possibility with excellent manual focus ring. Overall rating mine but I would say in line with the fantastic 16 1.4 Fuji or even better the chromatic aberrations. After first impressions checked and done further tests I am fully satisfied I would say perfect even at the corners those who most likely complain found a not good faulty pair unfortunately happens. This lens to something as difficult to explain magical as the 35 1.4 Fuji but the 23 1.4 at angles with sharper clarity. Then my personal opinion extremely recommendable.
