Product Overview

Fujifilm XF 35mm F2 R WR is a normal prime lens for Fujifilm X-mount. It covers the APS-C image circle. Introduced by Fujifilm in 2015, it has 9 elements in 6 groups.
For incremental weathers, Fujifilm is kind enough to include weather sealing. On the lens barrel, one can find a physical aperture ring. Those who wish to focus manually can have the best of both worlds (with the usual caveats).
A normal prime lens, the Fujifilm XF 35mm F2 R WR does not boast the brightest apertures, though it still may be worth a try for landscape and street photography.

    Reviewers from cameralabs have found:
    f1.4 enjoys the edge in the extreme corners, the XF 35mm f2 greatly improves as you move into the frame even only a little. In my night tests with both lenses, the newer model out-performed the older one in the mild-corner region. Both lenses are quite capable of blurring backgrounds, and rendering point sources into satisfying blobs at large apertures.
    Pros
    • Compact and light body
    • Weather-sealing
    • Quick and quiet autofocus
    Cons
    • Not as sharp as f1.4
