This lens is amazing. It’s sharp, looks great on my Fujifilm camera, and doesn’t feel cheap at all! Build quality is excellent. The aperture ring clicks nicely, and the focus ring is smooth. The lens feels mostly metal and has a satisfying weight, though it’s still light and compact. It is worth mentioning that vignetting and color shading appear at f-stops higher than f/4, so if you were hoping to use wide apertures for a shallow depth of field or low light conditions, this lens has some imperfections and might not be the one for you. (Last image sample shows the vignetting) However, at f/4 and smaller, the image is sharp and there is hardly any vignetting. Great for street photography and bright/normal conditions. At wider apertures, the infinity focus may not be perfectly accurate, but it can be adjusted with a screwdriver. The lens cap screws on rather than clipping on, which I don’t mind because it adds a manual feel, but if you take it on and off frequently, you might want a separate 43mm lens cap. This was my first manual lens and I assure you it is really easy to use if you know the basics of photography. Very straight forward and functional lens. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase. At this price point, I couldn’t ask for more (maybe slightly less vignetting). Highly recommended, great value for your money.

Lets get this out of the way first- This isn't an optically perfect lens. Far from it. Wide open, this lens produces a somewhat soft and hazy picture that I'm sure some people will be put off from. If you want optical perfection, this isn't the lens for you. THAT BEING SAID- I love this lens. For one, it's the cheapest new lens (I think) that you can buy for the Fuji X mount. That alone gives it a lot of leeway to misbehave a bit, in my book. It's built of metal and feels good to use- the focus ring is well dampened and the clicked aperture is ideal for still photography. Not being a video shooter, I vastly prefer this over declicked apertures. The image quality, for all its flaws, provides what I find to be a pleasing character. It's not perfect for everything, but this is a lens that begs to be shot wide open at contrasty night scenes in the city. It's wide open characteristics are similar to using a slight diffusion filter. Considering that a good diffusion filter costs almost as much as this lens (Or more, if you splurge on the best filters you can buy), I treat this lens more as a special purpose tool than something to use for every occasion. That character disappears quickly when you stop down, becoming a very sharp lens very quickly. The diffuse look disappears almost completely after the first click down, so you don't need to use it all the time and still have a fast 2.8 aperture without the haze. It's also very small, and pairs well with my X-M1 as a setup that can get tossed in my shoulder bag without a second thought. It's a very fun lens, and if you aren't expecting the level of optical precision that Fuji lenses often strive for, this is a fantastic lens for the money.

It seems while other people have had copy variance issues, my copy of this lens focuses correctly when set to infinity focus and is pretty damn sharp wide open considering what it is and it's price. There is a quite heavy vignette wide open at f/2 and the image can get pretty easily washed out from strong light sources in, or just outside of the frame (though this gets slightly better as you stop down). F/4 is a sweet spot in terms of sharpness and overall image for subject photography with some background separation. Unfortunately, it doesn't make for a very good landscape lens at all due to the corners of the image frame being blurry, even stopped down to f/8, and there is some somewhat noticable barrel distortion if you have straight lines in your frame. Fortunately, there isn't a strong color cast, though colors need a little bit of booting either in post or in camera. I find the build quality to be fine considering how small it is. It is true that the aperture ring is very thin and close to the focus ring, but I personally got used to it rather quickly. I initially accidentally ordered a Sony mount version of this lens, which had a feeling of grinding as I turned the focus ring, but the Fuji X version that I now have has no such issue and there is an adequate amount of resistance in the focus ring. Again, I suspect it to be a copy variance thing. Overall, an enjoyable and small little walk around lens if you aren't necessarily looking to do portfolio work or you're okay with stopping down quite a bit for optimal results, and even then stilly having blurry image corners. It makes my X-E1 like an interchangeable-lens X100. You need to remember that you're literally paying $64 for the lens so you should manage your expectations and keep them reasonable.

For what you pay for, it's a great lens. Compact and great for street/environmental portraiture. About 37.5mm equivalent on aps-c sensor. Pretty sharp wide open in center (but near edges is not) No auto focus but c'mon...under 70 for a new lens? Get it if you want to experiment with manual shooting.

I own a Fujifilm XT-30 and this lens is the one I use the most since I’ve purchased it. I love that it’s manual focus. It gives me a better sense of control and I feel I can be more creative with it. Its focal length is awesome for street photography and the image quality is great for the price. I’d recommend anyone to purchase this.

Delivery was faster than expected. This manual focus budget lens is amazingly sharp.

Been using my X-T30II for about a year and I’ve decided to step up from my basic kit lens to a cheap prime and I chose this one mostly due to the dirt cheap price. It’s a fun little lens to shoot with and one thing I can say about it compared to my kit lens is that, it’s almost asking to go out and take photos with it. Manual focus is a challenge that in my experience makes photography much more immersive, and the focal length is perfect for, well, really anything. Street, everyday, landscapes, whatever. Plus it’s tiny. And did I mention the price? Build quality is excellent and easily beats my plastic kit lens but, one issue I’ve noticed is that my copy is slightly loose on the mount- it has some play back and forth when locked into the mount which is annoying but doesn’t affect the images or the usage of this lens in any way. Optical quality is definitely questionable… the 15-45 handily beats this little guy optically- at f2 there is major vignetting and the contrast is pretty bad- it definitely has some character, shooting at f2 gives an interesting retro film-like look for sure. This is lessened at f2.8 and easily correctable at f4 which is where I stick this lens all the time when shooting street. f5.6 and f8 are even better. But at all apertures the corners are noticeable blurry which annoyed me. If you’re looking for something razor-sharp and modern, with quality optics and clinical corner sharpness, skip this lens and go buy something 10x the price. But if you want a fun manual focus experience that makes you want to go out and shoot every day, I can’t recommend this lens enough. Give it a try!

The quality of this lens is amazing I cannot believe the price. Metal parts, smooth aperture, controlled focusing and sharp sharp sharp images. I watched a lot of videos about this lens before I purchased it and the main take away is the vignette the lens naturally has at low aperture. This is not even an issue! Most people will apply a vignette in post production anyway! Buy this lens, use Fuji film recipes and feel like you're shooting film all over again! Bottom line is to get this quality in any name brand you're looking at 6 times the price and maybe not as good! Don't listen to the haters and get creative with this little metal cylinder or awesomeness. I hope this helps anyone on the fence. Jump over

Shocked by the quality of the shots I'm getting with this ultra inexpensive piece of glass. I've been using this as my primary muck-about lens for a few months now. It's suits just about all my (amateur/hobbyist) needs - Casual portraiture, landscapes, low-light, shallow depth-of-field, mushy bokeh. Super fun.
