Along with a shooting equivalent of 41 millimeters and a maximum aperture of f/2.8, it has an extremely versatile focal length and a high-torque DC coreless motor for speedy, near-silent autofocus Read More
is anyone able to provide stunning pictures from experience with this lens?
i used to have it but i found it immensely hard to really appreciate it
edit: thanks for all the responses guys - you've confirmed my thoughts about the lens and how underwhelming it was
Thanks! I appreciate the sentiment. In comparing this I most definitely prefer 18mm f2 for the similarity in small-form but the wide-angle makes it much more versatile for my purposes.
idarerickStunning? I don't know.
If you pixel peep at 100% on your screen, it's not stunning, maybe.
If you make real-world 11x14 (or even 16x20) prints and compare them to lenses alleged to be "better," there's not really much difference.
Photography is not about sharpness.
The 27 f/2.8 is one of my favourite lens. Its a focal length close to 35 mm but at a much more compact size. Its sharp centre to edge from 5.6 and auto-focus very quickly.
I love to see the new 35 f/2. WR or the 23 f/1.4 on massdrop.
Nasty87Yes, it is, you are on Asia market thus you get different price and sometimes items. Looking at vw golf in Australia and Canada for example.
And in terms of shopping, i couldn't find an option to send to Canada
I don't get how this works I guess...
Just 2 days ago it said that you have 6 days left to join this drop. I come back today and it says drop inactive. Confused!
I think this was again listed without the limit mentioned :( Missed it after it was up for only a few hours, thought I had more time to pick it up. Oh well, I'll be here for the next one.
1771711I made a highlighted note in the drop that it was limited and may end early.
Make sure to act fast on this one next time as it is probably the most popular Fuji lens we have offered so far.
$310+shipping for an import XF 27mm is not a good deal. These are available for less brand new.
I love massdrop but the photography deals are often lacking.

Usually sold less than 250$ on ebay (HK or Japan sellers, brand new in a box). Fuji original price is totally overvalued for the only XF lens in the range assembled in China. No misunderstanding, it's a good and well designed lens but not over 300$
