Great macro lens but expensive

My first foray into Fujinon macro but disappointed.
Slow to focus and no stabiliser.
but made a better portrait lens
A bit pricey.
The 80mm however although expensive is fantastic.

by Most critical review

Good but flawed, and in need of an update.

This lens is in many ways better than the 3 star rating I've given it.
It's a great focal length for close up ( note not macro ) and also portrait photography.
It is strangely designed in so far as the front elements protrude someway out when close focussing, and has a small 39mm lens filter size which coupled with the aforementioned design makes it more difficult to attach and use polarising and other rotary type filters.
However the lens is well built and relatively light if the large standard metal lens hood is not used.
My main gripe is that the lens is of the older type and is noisy and relatively slow to acquire focus. Also the lens is not weather sealed. Now that I've purchased an F2.8 Tele zoom, this lens is surplus and will shortly be sold.
Sad, as I'm sure I'll at sometime in the future again hanker for a compact lightweight mid tele lens for my Fuji X cameras.

Well corrected lens but no macro.

Very good 60mm lens for the Fuji x-mount. Well corrected for distortion and chromatic aberrations. The lens gives a very nice 3D characteristic to your photographs and as such renders beautifully, better than the so-called Fujicrons.

Downsides are the ridiculous lens hood which I leave at home and the fact that it is simply not a macro lens - it does not do 1:1 focus. Don't expect to use this without an extension tube for true macro shots. It is also worth noting that it is painfully slow to focus on older bodies such as the X-Pro1. It is much faster on the X-Pro2.

Great sharp lens

A small light well made easy to use macro lens. It only produces half life size images but they are so sharp that it's not important. One of the best lenses I have owned.

Super Sharp Lens

One of the older generation of Fujinon lenses. Quality glass, super sharp. Not the fastest autofocus but not bad on my XT-3. Produces beautiful images with a certain look that is hard to describe. Excellent for portraits but so crisp it will show every blemish on the skin. Good macro and dreamy bokeh. A great lens.Read full review

Superb Detail with lightening fast autofocus

Use it for photographing small objects (e.g. coins) for putting on eBay. It is the finest lens I have used for this and I include some nice Nikon ones.

Accurate autofocus, accurate colour rendition and files big enough to crop if required.

Love it

Also, can get 1:1 with this lens and extension tube.

Fuji XF 60mm lens

A light and sharp lens, the equivalent of 90mm on a full frame 35mm camera. I like it's colour rendition as well. It also has a nice macro facility.

I'm very happy with it, and it's a good addition to the XF lenses.Read full review
