Product Overview

Fujifilm XF 56mm F1.2 R APD is a large-aperture short telephoto prime lens for Fujifilm X-mount. It covers the APS-C image circle. Introduced by Fujifilm in 2014, it has 11 elements in 8 groups.
The entire lens is crafted out of metal, which imparts a level of tactile sense of quality. 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 telephoto prime lens, the Fujifilm XF 56mm F1.2 R APD is well suited for portrait photography. Its "APD" filter allows the lens to produce even smoother bokeh, though light transmission is impacted.
