Review: My experience has been positive so far. - I purchased my Fuji XP1, 35mm, 60mm lenses from Japan in March and additionally purchased the 18mm lens from desertcart in May. I use to have Nikon D7000 DSLR, but high quality pro lenses were too pricey and heavy. I thought carefully of what I wanted. Since I'm not a pro and wanted something light for travel and high image quality is one of my top priority, I ultimately decided to switch to Fuji X Pro 1. Today, I'll be sharing my experience with 18mm f/2 lens, 35mm f/1.4, and the 60mm f/2.4 macro. -Fujifilm X-Pro1 18mm F2.0 Lens- This lens is the smallest, lightest, and the cheapest feeling lens out of the three primes that are released. Auto-focus seems faster or equal to Fuji's 35mm lens. Manual and aperture ring feels "disconnected" do to it being focus by wire design and not mechanical. The rubber lens hood cap, lens hood, and lens cap are poorly made. Long explanation short: it easily comes off. So I purchased the EzFoto 52mm Tilted Vented Metal Lens Hood and now it feels better (both now metal finish), looks better, and securely fits on to the lens. I purchased this lens primarily to cover my wide angle needs until Fujifilm releases their 10-24mm f/4 lens (planned for 2013). After using the lens though, I may keep this lens even after 10-24mm lens becomes released. The reason is because you can get really close with this lens (.18m) and at f/2.0, you can have the subject separated from the background even at this wide angle; furthermore, the bokeh is creamy and pleasant when you get it right. When focusing very close, slight change in angle would create an interesting composition/perspective for your photos. I think I would be keeping this lens for those creative shots. -Fujifilm X-Pro1 35mm F1.4 Lens- This lens is a must have for Fuji X Pro 1 user. Auto-focus seems slightly slower or equal to Fuji's 18mm lens. Manual and aperture ring feels "disconnected" do to it being focus by wire design and not mechanical. Similarly with 18mm lens hood accessories, I switched it for the EzFoto 52mm (Non-Tilted) Vented Metal Lens Hood. I purchased this lens primarily as a simple walk around lens for me. Sharp and usable from F/1.4 and the bokeh is creamy and pleasant most of the time. It gave me the similar experience I had with my Nikon 35mm f/1.8 DX lens, but with better bokeh quality (in my opinion). Rather than sharpness, the quality of the bokeh really changes the mood of a picture. In an extreme sense, I was never satisfied with Nikon 35mm f/1.8 lens because the bokeh wasn't to my liking. I also shot an environmental and studio portrait with Fuji 35mm lens and boy was I happy with my images. ("bokehlicious!") This may be trivial, but this lens can focus closer than Nikon's (.28m vs.3m). *The closer you can get, the shallower depth of field you get*. Couldn't be happier with this lens. -Fujifilm X-Pro1 60mm f/2.4 Macro Lens- This lens is the least used when I'm outdoors, but when I'm taking still life shots (indoors) this is the most used. Auto-focus is the slowest. Very difficult to auto-focus very close. However, I use this lens on tripod, set it to manual focus, and check my focus using the magnification function on the LCD for precise focus. Manual and aperture ring feels "disconnected" do to it being focus by wire design and not mechanical. Aperture ring, on my copy, actually feels a bit tighter than the other two lenses above. I purchased this lens, as I mentioned above, primarily for my still life shots. It gains 1/3 stop compared to most competition, but loses that 1:1 reproduction ratio (this lens has 1:2 ratio rating). It's a very sharp lens from wide open and produces creamy bokeh for "macro-close-up" shots. However, for portrait shots, I find the bokeh to be busy most of time and wouldn't recommend it. I would probably wait for the newly announced Fuji 56mm f/1.4 lens (planned for 2013) for portraits. Ultimately, if you understand why you are buying the lenses for, these lenses are all high quality glass and image quality definitely won't disappoint you!
Review: F/2 and close-focus capabilities! - This is a beautiful Fuji lens which covers an important focal length. It makes stunning pictures which access to the creative shallow DOF f/2 affords. I love the lens. My did not come with a hood, but I heard the hood, from Fuji, is disappointing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ F/2 and close-focus capabilities!
*by E***E on May 6, 2026*

This is a beautiful Fuji lens which covers an important focal length. It makes stunning pictures which access to the creative shallow DOF f/2 affords. I love the lens. My did not come with a hood, but I heard the hood, from Fuji, is disappointing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Workhorse lens though not without shortcomings.
*by J***. on October 2, 2016*

I purchased this lens new along with my XT1 two years ago. I've been a working professional photographer for the past 25 years or so; I'm no stranger to lenses and cameras. When it comes to the XT1 (and now XT2), this lens is on my camera more than any other lens. I use it as my walk around, travel and street photography lens. Overall, the lens is sharp, though sharpest at the center with a definite falloff towards the edges. Most people won't notice this and I only do if I'm pixel peeping up close. I tend to shoot wide open and place my subject at the center so the fall off in sharpness often works with me. Again, at the edges, you'll see chromatic aberration (little purple halos) if the scene is backlit. There's some distortion with this lens however that's easily corrected in Lightroom using the Lens Correction panel (I use the setting for the Nikon 28mm). The lens focuses consistently and fast. It's held up well the abuse that I give it. I don't baby camera or lens. The metal lens hood does a good job protecting the front lens element (though I use a filter to avoid scratches). This lens isn't the best of the Fuji bunch, but that doesn't mean that it's not a capable performer. t've exhibited printed work from my Nikon D810 with the latest Nikon 28mm side by side with the XT1 with 18mm and I can't tell the difference. If you're looking for a super sharp, technically perfect wide angle lens, this isn't the lens. For that, I'd go with the 14mm. Of course, it's a stop slower and double the money. (If you're a landscape photographer, the 14mm is a better choice all the way around.) Bottom line: Good lens for the money. Will work great for most people. If you're a pixel peeping snob, probably best to move on.
