XF 23mm F2 R WR overview
The Fujifilm XF 23mm F2 R WR is a 23mm f/2 prime for APS-C cameras on Fujifilm X, announced by Fujifilm in August 2016. 27 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits travel. It is a weaker pick for close-ups.
New, it sells for A$569 to A$699.95 at the 3 stores we track in Australia that have it in stock; used and refurbished copies start at A$485.
Worth comparing it with the Tokina atx-m 23mm F1.4, Viltrox AF 23mm F1.4 and Sigma 23mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary.
