Just gotten the above lens from Artworkfoto for my Fujifilm Xpro1 to do a quick review. No affiliation to AWF, just a user review to share my thoughts of this FE lens. It actually just arrive our shores on Monday 6th Aug.
Xpro1 is Fujifilm's flagship foray into mirrorless camera, with no AA filter in the sensor, this means the image quality from this camera is as sharp as you can get.
This is a 3rd party manual lens and I believe a first for Fuji X mount.
Pls kindly note that this will not be a technical review, just a user review. Will try several genre of photography for this lens, mainly landscapes, portraits and street.
I have the m43 mount 7.5mm FE lens as well which I like it alot, after using this for good 8 months, I'm a Samyang fan for the price vs performance it delivers.
Here are some of the specs:
Specification f=8mm Mirrorless / F2.8 (FISH-EYE LENS)
Aperture Rang F2.8 ~ 22
Optical Construction 10Element in 8Groups (1 ASPHERICAL LENS)
Angle of View 180˚ (APS-C)
Minimum Focusing Distance 0.3mm(1.0ft)
Filter Size NONE
Length 48.3mm ~ 55.8mm
Maximum Diameter Φ60.0mm
Weight 208 ~ 217g (this is so new that the actual weight is not updated on the website, the weight given was for Sony Nex & Samsung NX, I doubt there's a big difference to this)
Lens Coating Multi-coating
