  • Fujifilm XF · 23 mm · f/2.8

    Fujifilm XF 23mm F2.8 R WR

    Full review

    A 23 mm-long, 90 g pancake prime for X mount with an aperture ring, weather sealing, and an 11-blade diaphragm. Introduced June 12, 2025, alongside the X-E5, and aimed squarely at photographers who want their smallest Fuji body to feel as compact as an X100.

  • Fujifilm XF · 23 mm · f/2

    Fujifilm XF 23mm F2 R WR

    Full review

    The 35 mm-equivalent workhorse of the XF lineup. One stop faster than the F2.8 pancake, weather sealed, stepping-motor AF, and around 180 g. The lens to beat for general-purpose 23 mm use.

    The 50 mm-equivalent companion to the XF 23mm F2 R WR. Same compact-barrel formula, same weather sealing, same stepping-motor AF. A natural second prime alongside the 23 mm.

How we review lenses

The specification table is sourced from Fujifilm. Manufacturer performance claims are labelled as claims. We do not invent AF, sharpness, flare, or bokeh results when an independent source cannot be retrieved and verified. When we have first-hand shooting or dependable third-party testing, it is identified in the review.
