Description — Fujifilm 23mm f/2 R WR
The Fujifilm FUJINON XF23mm F2 R WR is a prime lens designed for Fujifilm X mount mirrorless cameras using an APS-C sensor format. It features a 23mm focal length with a maximum aperture of f/2, offering a versatile standard-range perspective. The lens weighs a compact 180g and accepts a 43mm filter thread, making it easy to carry and pair with small filter accessories.
It supports both autofocus and manual focus, allowing photographers to switch between modes as their subject demands. Image stabilization is listed as none, so stabilized shooting depends on the camera body. The Fujifilm X mount pairing ensures this lens is at home across the range of X-series mirrorless bodies.
