This is a brief excerpt from thePhoBlographer
At last! The most rangefinder-like of the mirrorless camera systems has a 35mm equivalent lens! We’ve always been a fan of SLR Magic’s lenses here on the Phoblographer and when we received the 23mm f1.7 in the mail, we were super stoked. It renders a near 35mm field of view on the cameras. Though Fujifilm themselves will be releasing one later on from the publishing of this piece, they were beaten to the cake by SLR Magic. We’ve spent a couple of days with this lens since seeing at Photokina, so far and we have to say that this one makes the X Pro 1 feels like the Leica cameras that I was trained on.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Beautiful bokeh
- Fairly sharp wide open in the center and even sharper when stopped down
- Excellent ergonomics
- Solid build quality
Cons
- Corner sharpness isn’t the greatest
