Review: Another superb lens from Fuji - I've owned most of the Fuji lenses at some point over the last 2 years. As an amateur I felt i had invested too much money in gear, so I recently sold off my XT1, 16mm 1.4, 18mm, 23mm 1.4, 35mm 1.4, 56mm 1.2, 60mm and x100T in favour of a cheaper more simple set up. So I now own just the XT10, 23f2 & 35f2 - simple, small and extremely good IQ. The reason for this info, is so you know I have tried most of the lenses - So i think i have a fairly good gauge for comparison. The 23 feels very much like the 35 f2, excellent build quality (better than the 23 1.4) - its slightly longer than the 35 f2 but there really isn't much in it. Its significantly small and lighter than the 23 f1.4. It focuses extremely quickly - almost too quick as my eyes can't seem to keep up! I was never a huge fan of the 23 f1.4 - I found the focus distance frustrating and the IQ fairly dull. These have all been improved on the F2 - you can focus really close (not as close as the 16 but allot closer than the previous 23) which makes for some interesting compositions. In terms of sharpness, this is tack sharp. Actually i find it hits the focus far more often that the 35mm which is still very good. The Bokeh is great for the focal length but obviously not as defined as the 23mm f1.4. Overall it's excellent value for money without compromising on quality. The only reason to get the older lens would be the low light capability, however, I have found the F2 perfectly capable in most instances. Apologies, I haven't articulated myself very well - but I was surprised there were few other reviews available for what is a superb lens from Fuji... I don't have allot of pictures uploaded yet - but feel free to check out my Instagram for example shots: frankm301
Review: Fantastic lens - The fuji 23mm (35mm full frame eqiv) is a perfect lens for travel and street photography. The lens is now glued to my XT5. F2 may not be the fastest but it gets the job done , even in lower light. There is enough sepeartion at F2 and the bokeh while not mind blowing is good enough. Reviews state there is purple fringing but honestly I haven't noticed. This is a really great lens and must have IMHO , it's the perfect first prime. The only thing I didnt really like was the included lens hood, I ended up getting 3rd square hood which is much better.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply amazing. Perfect for travel.
*by J***N on 28 July 2017*

This lens is simlpy brilliant. So small and compact, fast autofocus, easy to use, with nice weighted aperture ring. Not tried the f1.4 but don't want to, f2 on a XT1 with such good noise control means that if you have to up the ISO you can't tell. Have been using for true street photos on holiday, quick snaps, and more artistic aperture, depth field shots. All amazing. Great for landscapes too, not too wide so buildings curve and trees bend, but wide enough to get most things in, at real world distances. Can easily crop for the detail, that will be there, later. Small size and the XT1 on a wrist strap, means you can hide the camera in your hand, so won't draw attention to yourself. Fuji have thought this lens through, for use in the real world, and got in spot on.
