Optics That Outperform the Size

Despite its tiny footprint, this lens is no slouch. Built with two aspherical elements, it delivers edge-to-edge sharpness that more than keeps up with Fujifilm’s high-resolution sensors, including the cutting-edge 40.2MP X-Trans 5 HR.

Get Beautiful Bokeh Effortlessly

There’s something magical about smooth background blur, and this lens serves it up in style. The 11-blade rounded aperture produces sumptuous bokeh, especially at wider settings like f/2.8 or f/4.

Perfect for portraits, food shots, and detail-rich close-ups, it adds that soft painterly quality that separates a great shot from a stunning one.

Close Focus for Intimate Moments

You can focus from just 20cm from the sensor, letting you fill the frame with flowers, hands, textures, or your latest café creation. Light is directed precisely to the sensor with a single moving focus group, giving you consistent autofocus performance whether your subject is centimetres away or across the room.

Built For The Elements

With a weather-resistant construction, it’s protected against dust, moisture, and even chillier temps down to -10°C. Bonus: a lens hood is included for added defence (and some extra style points).

Autofocus That’s Fast and Silent

Some moments last a split second, but with this new Fujifilm lens, you’ll be ready. With a DC coreless motor and minimal internal element movement, the XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR delivers fast, reliable autofocus that locks on quickly and keeps up with real life.
