Fujifilm XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR Lens Black Summary
The Fujifilm XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR Lens Black is a newly developed ultra-compact prime for X Series camera users who want excellent image quality in an exceptionally portable format. Weighing just 90g and measuring only 23mm in length, this is one of the smallest and lightest lenses in the XF lineup, which is perfect for everyday photography and travel.
Its 23mm focal length delivers a classic 35mm equivalent field of view, which has a large fanbase for being so adept at street photography, lifestyle, environmental portraits, and general purpose shooting.
Optically the lens includes two aspherical elements in an 8-element, 6-group design, and is capable of producing sharp results from the centre to the edges, while 11 rounded aperture blades help to render attractive circular bokeh when shooting wide open. Autofocus performance is noticeably fast and quiet, thanks to being driven by a high-torque DC motor that supports both stills and video recording.
The design includes nice touches from Fujifilm like the aperture and focus rings, manual focus response, and a stylish black finish with weather sealing at nine points. This lens can easily be combined with the latest 40MP high-resolution sensors, thanks to the impressive quality that the XF 23mm f/2.8 delivers.
Fujifilm XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR Lens Black in More Detail
Ultra-Compact Prime for Everyday Creativity
The XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR lens is a highly versatile 35mm full-frame equivalent prime, which is well suited to everyday photography and video. It is very compact at just 90g and 23mm long, which makes the XF 27mm f/2.8 one the most compact XF lenses to date. Its size is perfect for street, lifestyle, travel, and documentary photography, where discretion and ease of use are ideal.
Optical Design for High-Resolution Sensors
The lens features 8 elements in 6 groups, including two aspherical elements to minimise optical aberrations and maintain high levels of sharpness. It’s capable of resolving detail from Fujifilm’s latest 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor, delivering crisp, clear results. The optical system is designed for consistent performance even when focusing close down to 29cm from the subject.

Responsive Autofocus and Close Focus
Focusing is handled by a fast DC motor that uses an internal full-group focusing system. This delivers fast and silent AF for both stills and video. With a minimum focusing distance of just 20cm, the lens is effective for tabletop shots, close-ups and portraits, as well as for small object photography.
Premium Build with Enhanced Usability
Despite its size, the XF 23mm f/2.8 is built with metal components, and features weather sealing at nine critical points. The aperture and manual focus rings are carefully spaced for easy adjustment, and are textured for tactile control. Fujifilm has included a fixed ring between the controls to prevent interference, ensuring a smooth shooting experience in virtually any situation.
