This was my first prime lens purchased and I?m so happy I went with this. It?s perfect for indoor shots where light might be a little low. Great for snapping pics of children too! I loved the lens hood, huge difference in high light situations. As an amateur photographer this is just perfect!

Works beautifully! Really clear quality, takes great images. I was pretty surprised by how small it was, being someone who’s used to DSLR lenses, but don’t let that fool you. This is a great lens.

Don't get me wrong, the pictures are great and crisp and the f stop delivers great quality! There's just something missing with the short shots and lack of speed.

Love this super fast lens with manually controllable f stops for shooting manual. It did take several weeks to get my free $50 gift card however which they sent when I finally asked about it.

This lens is amazing, light, sharp, very fast being a 1.4 lens. The reason I gave it a 4 star is that I found it to focus accurately but slow. The F2 lens solves that problem. The 1.4 lens probably is the better lens because it is small for such a wide aperture and if you use wider apertures it is usable in low light and for shallow depth of field.

This pretty much lived on my X-E2. Can't recommend it enough.

I have used this lens several times since purchasing it. The photos appear to be very sharp. I have not analyzed the center versus the corners. I shoot a lot of my photos indoors. I was looking to use this lens at family affairs and events at our religious institution. I wanted a lens that has a large enough aperture to keep my ISO at 3200 or below. I have tended to use this lens wide open or nearly wide open. I also own the 16mm 1.4. I wanted something with greater focal length as I am not always able to move closer to the subjects. Compared to the 16mm, this lens on the XT3 is slower and noisier to focus. It can hunt a bit. It is not weather resisitant. However, I have other lenses to serve that purpose. In any case, photos are sharp and in focus. It admirably serves the purpose for which I bought it. I have not tested continuous focus on moving subjects. However, with the shutter set to 1/125 I feel I have good results with single shot focus.

I have purchased both the 35mm F/1.4 and F/2.0, both are fabulous lenses. They both excel at different things. If you need fast and quiet auto-focus get the F/2.0. If you need the extra stop of light get the F1.4. I sold my F2.0 and kept the F1.4. I am a sucker of the extra stop and the noise does not bother me. The auto-focus is adequate for my needs. Bottom line this lens takes beautiful pictures with amazing background blur.

Live this lens. I use it portraits and street photography. The F1.4 is fantastic.

Kinda loud, but great image quality and not as slow focus as other reviews mention

I owned probably 12 50mm equivalent lenses in my 40 years as a semi-pro. I've had Pentax, Canon, Nikon, Sigma, Tamron and Zeiss lenses. This is the first 50mm f/1.4 lens I have felt comfortable using at 1.4. All the other 50mm lenses I've used at 1.4 were unusable until stopped down to f/2 or 2.8. But this one begs to be shot wide open. And I am using this on the lowly X-E2s, not one of the pro bodies, but it smokes every Nikon lens I have, as well as the Zeiss 50mm f/2 Makro. It's just that good and makes me wish I could instantly switch to an all Fuji system. But it will time to transition. This lens is just beautiful in every way and I highly recommend it.

Really happy with this lens. It has a little glow at 1.4 which is ethereal. Just a lot of fun to work with.

An incredible lens. Small, light, super sharp, great bokeh! What else could you want? Don’t be intimidated by the reviewers who say it’s slow and noisy- they’re just splitting hairs and propagating what someone else said to promote fear of purchase. Well worth the dough to get great shots, it’s a winner!

Sharp as a tack!
By JEREMY W.
I use this lens on my X-pro 1. This is one of the sharpest lenses I have ever used. It's even super sharp at F 1.4! I use the Fuji X system both personally and professionally. I like the simplicity compactness of the system compared to my Canons. This lens is my favorite in the line up.

The Fujifilm XF 35mm (53mm) F/1.4 Lens is specifically designed for the Fujifilm X-Pro1 camera with an APS-C sensor, this Fujifilm 35mm f/1.4 XF R Lens is a "normal" lens equivalent to 53mm in 35mm format. The exceptionally fast, bright f/1.4 maximum aperture makes shooting in very low light possible and provides pleasing bokeh (the out-of-focus portion of a photo) with its 7-blade aperture design-ideal for dramatic portraits. This is a terrific All-in-One lens for everyday use.
To take advantage of the X-Pro1's mirror-less design, the rear element of the lens is as close as possible to the sensor, minimizing the back focus distance appreciably. The lens construction includes a metal barrel, Super EVC coating for improved optical performance and it delivers improved centre-to-edge resolution and brightness free from chromatic aberration. This lens has a maximum magnification of 0.17x and the aperture ring has 1/3-stop click stops for more precise exposures.
