The Fujinon XF23mm F1.4 R features a focal length of 23 mm (equivalent to 35 mm full-frame) and is well-suited for a wide range of subjects, including landscapes and portraits. With high resolution from the center to the edges and excellent contrast, this lens delivers impressive image results. The extremely powerful optics minimize distortion, eliminating the need for digital correction. With a high aperture of F1.4, the lens is excellent for low-light photography.

The XF23mm F1.4 R consists of eleven elements in eight groups, including one aspherical lens. It also features seven aperture blades that create a nearly circular aperture, resulting in an outstanding bokeh effect.

The precise focus ring, like the aperture ring, is made entirely of metal and allows for accurate and comfortable manual focusing. The distance and depth-of-field scales on the lens are very useful for manual pre-focusing to capture fast-moving subjects.

The short minimum focusing distance of 28 centimeters enables impressive close-up shots.

Thanks to an innovative autofocus design, the Fujinon XF23mm F1.4 R also achieves a very fast autofocus speed. Additionally, at just 300 grams and a length of only 63 mm, the XF23mm is one of the lightest and most compact lenses in its class.
