Fujinon X Lens: Primes – Fujinon XF 90mm f/2 R LM WR (Tested) | SLRgear

The Fujinon XF 90mm ƒ/2 R LM WR telephoto lens has been shipping since the summer of 2015, and we’ve finally had an opportunity to get it into our test lab. Up until now, our sharpest lens has been the Sigma 70mm ƒ/2.8 macro, but that crown is about to handed over to the Fuji 90mm. The Fuji 90mm ƒ/2 was designed to fit onto the X-mount of Fuji bodies, where it provides an effective field of view of around 137mm, in 35mm film terms. It ships with a round lens hood, takes 62mm filters, and is available now for around $800. Sharpness. After around eight years of reviewing lenses for SLRgear.com, there aren’t many cases where one’s jaw drops when looking at a blur chart. This was one of them. There actually isn’t much to report on in this category of the review: the lens is spectacularly tack-sharp, at all apertures, even wide open at ƒ/2. Diffraction limiting sets in at ƒ/11, where it still remains tack-sharp; only at ƒ/16 do we note a hint of image degradation due to diffraction. In short, it doesn’t get much sharper than this……….
