FUJIFILM 90mm: The Ace Lens That's Always in My Bag!

I'm back with another lens review, this time it's the FUJINON XF90mmF2 R LM WR by Fujifilm.
Man, do I love this lens! It's pretty much always in my bag. Whether I'm out for a pro shoot or just snapping around town, this is the lens I rely on.
The opportunities with the Fujifilm 90mm are endless. Be it portraits, landscapes, or product shots, it does it all, and it does it well.
The sharpness? Absolutely ace. It delivers superbly crisp images, every single time.
And the autofocus, oh boy, it's fast. One of the quickest in the Fujifilm range. Perfect for capturing those quick, spontaneous moments.
Plus, it's weather resistant. Rain or shine, this lens has got you covered.
So, that's it for the intro. Stick around for the full review where I'll delve deeper into all its features.
Until then, happy shooting!

This is a stunning lens for razor sharp images with beautiful bokeh to separate the subject. And also a great lens for macro even. For me it is my number one lens for concert photography in manual mode.

[@pietrozuco]

Agree it's an amazing lens. I used it for a couple of concerts as well and it was great. Agree even if it's not directly marketed as a macro lens, it does a very good job at it

[@NicZanski]

Love the slow creamy video. What’s the frame rate 60 slowed to 30?

[@pietrozuco]

Thank you, that's correct, 60 slowed down to 30

Thinking about my next WR target lens for a Fuji X- T1. Would this be a better lens for street than, say a 70 - 300? I’ve recently got into Fuji and own a 16 f1.4 and the 35 f2 (both WR).

[@pietrozuco]

Hard to say depending of what kind of street photography you plan to do. In my case, I feel very self aware getting close to strangers to snap a photo and most of the time they notice it :) This lens allows me to keep a certain distance, to observe more without feeling that I'm entering other's people personal space. It's a very specific lens, but I had very good results with it. I also used it for portraits, it's excellent for that and for concerts where I needed a bright tele lens. You can also use the camera app and control it from your phone to take pictures without being noticed. I'm making a video about that.

[@Elements795]

@@pietrozuco I will look forward to watching the video on the app. I’ve tried the same with a GRii / GR app!

[@sumukhanm3643]

I think 137 mm on crop sensor right?

[@altairquten]

No, Fujis usually come with crop sensors already, so you're just doing the following calculation: 90mm APS-C * ~1.53 = 137.7mm Full Frame.

[@pietrozuco]

That's correct, the full frame equivalent, as per Fuji's website for the lens is 137mm. Take that into account if planning to use it on a full frame camera, from another manufacturer using a lens converter.
