About this deal

If you’re taking photos of moving cars from a distance, a zoom lens like the Fujinon XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR is perfect. It has a fast maximum aperture and long focal length range, making it ideal for capturing distant cars and details. I see a lot of questions in forums about the best lenses for XT3, XT30, XT200, XH2s, XPro3, XT100, XS10, Xa7, ZT5, X Pro2, XH1, and all the other various compatible Fujifilm mirrorless digital cameras.

Ho preso cosi seriamente la cosa che ci ho impiegato un intero mese per completare le mie ricerche su ogni singolo obiettivo compatibile con la mia Sony A6400, studiando tutti gli Obiettivi Kit della A6400, ogni singolo Obiettivo Firmato Sony e tutti gli Obiettivi Custom di Aziende Importanti del Settore, ma nonostante io abbia letto centinaia di Recensioni su Siti Italiani ed Internazionali tra le poche costanti che vi erano in tutte le recensioni la costante più evidente era un nome che continuava a comparire, SIGMA.The build quality of the lens is also top-notch. It feels very sturdy in hand, and it's clear that it's built to last. The lens mount is made of metal, which gives me confidence that it won't wear out easily. If you’re looking for the best Fuji prime lenses, the 23mm f/1.4 or the 23mm f/2 WR are my two favourites due to their versatile focal length. Many photographers tend to lean toward a zoom lens when shooting landscape photography as it means there is a bit more versatility on a shoot. One of the limitations of a prime lens is that the only way to zoom in and out is to move to the ideal location for the frame.

Above: to illustrate that, I’ve superimposed a red frame where the outer edge represents the coverage from the 16mm. That said, because the 16mm focal length is mainly limited to zoom lenses, it is at a disadvantage over the more popular 14mm focal length, which has a plethora of prime lenses. Above: Zooming-in on the skyline of London across the Thames shows some nice crisp details and even some diffraction spikes on the lights shining directly into the lens – I’ll talk more about them in a moment. As for the build, you’ll know by now that all the Fuji X mount lenses are built out of metal to outlast your life as a photographer. As with all pro-grade Fuji zooms, the 50-140mm f/2.8 isn’t compact or light, but the internal zoom and focus mean that the lens doesn’t ‘grow’ at least!The Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Sony E (402965) stands out as a remarkable lens with a wide aperture and outstanding quality within its price range. Highly recommended for complementing the Sony E10, this lens delivers exceptional image quality. Its low aperture makes it a versatile choice for low-light conditions, and the overall performance exceeds expectations, making it a valuable addition to any photographer's/videographer's toolkit. But the 50mm prime lens is a great option for landscape photography, especially if you’re a beginner; it will make you think differently about your photos, it will free you from the constraints of a heavy setup, and it will easily provide you with clear, sharp images. Early in 2012, Fuji released the X-Pro 1 system, with this 35mm f/1,4 being one of the 3 flag-ship Fujifilm lenses. But first for focusing speed in Single AF with a central area on an EOS R5 and the closest bottle near to the minimum focusing distance. Like other budget lenses, it’s not the fastest focuser, but does so smoothly and the speed shouldn’t impact most situations. The focusing motor can also be audible in quiet surroundings and I’ll demonstrate that later.

Above: Let’s return to the centre of the image with the 16mm at f2.8 on the left and the RF 14-35mm f4L on the right at f4 and adjusted to match the field of view, where coincidentally the EXIF data reported it as being at the same 16mm focal length. Judging from these magnified crops, their quality in the middle of the frame at their maximum apertures is actually pretty similar, and this is with the 16mm operating one stop brighter too. We take one, review it, look at our options, and if we decide it’s a worthwhile subject – take a few more until we get it just right. Award-winning Fujifilm X-Photographers, Andrew Hall and Gary Heery share their Fujifilm lens recommendations for different photography genres to help photographers maximise the potential of every shot.lenses are fast lenses with a fast maximum aperture. The most basic 50mm lenses are typically F1. 8 – a very wide aperture. This means they are great for low-light photography (e.g. low-light portraiture or indoor shooting) as they allow more light into the camera’s sensor. What is the best focal length for portraits? Dopo aver completato le mie ricerche ero finalmente giunto ad una conclusione, il mio Obiettivo sarebbe stato un SIGMA senza ombra di dubbio, ma un dubbio risolto ne ha fatto nascere uno ancora più grande ovvero " Va bene che deve essere un SIGMA, ma quale tra i tanti? ". Prima di parlare dell'Obiettivo in se è giusto parlarvi del motivo che mi ha spinto ad acquistare questo obiettivo SIGMA 16 mm tra i tantissimi Obiettivi in Vendita sul Mercato cosi da portarvi nel mio viaggio durato mesi, condividendo con voi tutta la mia esperienza diretta in merito. Even when uncorrected in-camera, vignetting is fairly minimal for such a fast, wide-angle lens. Stop down to f/2 and it becomes fairly unnoticeable. Ghosting and flare are also well controlled, and the same goes for barrel distortion.

As for performance, the 27mm f/2.8 is sharp at all apertures, although shooting wide open at f/2.8 will result in slight softness in the corners, it’s barely noticeable. Within this list, there are even more things to consider like the aperture of the lens, the angle of the lens, a prime or zoom lens, and so on and so forth. I have the privilege of working with Andrew as a writer over at dPS, so I’m very familiar with his quality of writing, and his teaching skills. Being a good photographer, and being able to teach and explain things so others can understand are two different things. Andrew is good at both! Read the description of what a wide angle lens does (above) one more time. Notice that they are designed to distort and stretch perspective. Given that the Fujinon XF 50mm F/2 is fast, light, compact and fast prime makes it great value for money.Of course, you have to balance out the extra editing time with how fun this lens is to use – it really doesn’t weigh anything, and its bright aperture and wide focal length combine to make it a really fun lens for street photography. It also has obvious landscape photography applications, and it’s easy to imagine doing the confetti run at weddings. If you’re after something wide, sharp and bright you are simply not going to do better on the RF mount for this kind of cash. The last mistake beginners make is to use a wide angle lens just because it’s cool, or funky, or different. Image stabilisation on the 50-140mm f/2.8 also deserves a mention, with handheld shots at shutter speeds as slow as 1/15s shot at 140mm remaining very sharp. Shooting at such slow speeds would be extremely difficult without the inbuilt image stabilisation on this Fuji lens. This will give your image layers of depth and make people want to look at it closer, to really explore what’s going on in your photographs. When it comes to autofocus, the Fujinon XF 50mm f/2 is one of the fastest Fujifilm x-mount options available. There is zero evidence of focus hunt even in low lighting conditions making this a great lens for capturing animal or children portraits.
