  • In this episode I talk about one of my favorite Fujifilm lenses, the 35mm f2. This was one of the first lenses I brought with my Xpro2 and I have taken some of my favorite photos with this lens.

    I bought the Fujifilm XF 35 mm f/1.4 a few years and disliked it. It focused slowly and noisily. Eventually, I realized the problem was me. I tried to use it for things that were more suited to zooms. I ended up selling it. But times change. This year, I wanted to do more street photography, day and night. I did some research about what fit my needs and got this lens the f/2.0. So far, I've had three photo shoots with it, and I'm really happy. The image quality is amazing and has snappy focus. Even shooting my dog is a pleasure.

    I used the 35mm f/2 for several years and can remember my first outing with it when I ran to my Nikon buddy and had him load my SOOC jpegs onto his computer and he kept saying that I was trying to trick him by saying it was APS-C. He couldn't believe how great the images looked from the little 35mm.
    Like you though, I finally got thevf/1.4 version and now the f/2 lens rarely gets mounted. It's very good, but the f/1.4 is great. The hype is mostly true... pixie dust giving a magic rendering in certain situations. Can't measure or quantify it, but I can see it.

    • @erenjam

    If you aren't sure about the xf 35mm f2 you can buy the xc 35mm f2 for £169 since the internal glass is the same. I personally own the xc version and the the biggest difference between the xf and xc versions is that the body is plastic, lacks weather sealing and an aperture ring. This could be a deal breaker for some people and it would be for me if I used it more since I love the aperture ring and metal construction on my xf 50mm f2.

  • @JoshuAhillyarD89
    @JoshuAhillyarD89 Před 2 lety +12

    This has been my favorite lens over the last 4 years as well. I just picked up the 50 f2 and the 23 f1.4. Both are great, but I'm really attached to my 35 f2. Btw, you should try the 18 f2. I think it's better than what people say. It has similar qualities to the 35 f1.4.

    Merhaba Eren, kanalınıza ve videolarını çok seviyorum. çok hoş içerikler. Sana bir sorum olacaktı. Fuji xc-35mm f2 ile aynısının xf modeli arasında kararsız kaldım xf modeli xc modelinin iki katı fiyatına, sence hangisini almalıyım ?

  • @vladimir_filipas
    @vladimir_filipas Před 2 lety +5

    Nice shots and review! Great job bro 👏
    xf35mm f2 is my favourite lens, when I look my LR catalogue ~40% of my shots was made by this lens.
    I shoot evertything with it - travel, street, cars, product, portrait, street...the most versatille lens in the system and f2 is also more than good in low light for me 😊
    I never had an issue with sharpness, I even shoot close-up small products with labels wide open at f2 and had tack sharp images, but I agree that there are sharper lenses in the X system but for the price this pocket rocket is the best buy for the quality that provides.
    I would like to see compare video with new 33mm, I hope you will get that one soon 💪

    "...and I don't really take good care of my lenses...I like to juggle them during videos!!" LOL!! :-) You were totally making me nervous watch you throw that lens around..... Thanks for this video. I'm trying to decide what prime I'd eventually like to buy first. It will most likely be an f2 because of price, but not sure if I want the 35 or the 50. That 50 is so tempting because it would be great for portraits, but that wider field of view and standard focal length of the 35 is really nice too. Oh well.....decisions!

    • @erenjam
      @erenjam  Před 2 lety +2

      haha, id go for the 35 if you are looking for a lens for different styles of photography. That said, you can also do street with the 50 so both work .... coin flip

    I wanted to buy this lens a few days ago, but when I tested it in the shop, the autofocus of 35mm f2 was kind of slow. It was jumpy and taking time to focus. The autofocus of 23mm f2 on the other hand was faster. Is this because of the lens or the camera that I’m using? My camera is fuji xt200. Really appreciate if you could respond.

    • @erenjam

I'd love to see how you go end-to-end from RAW to the final image with commentary on how you think about color, contrast, etc... as well as how you think about artistry, intention, motivation, and storytelling.

    • @wilhelmw3455
      @wilhelmw3455 Před 2 lety +4

      The image is magnified by 1.5 due to the smaller sensor on Fujifilm cameras therefore a 35mm lens becomes 52.5mm or a 50mm equivalent focal length on a full frame sensor.
