Ooh this is good stuff. The pre-wedding shot with the baby in the high chair is probably my favourite. On the last shot, I'd never thought about going in to the side of the confetti line. I've pretty much always stayed central and started with a longer lens then switched wider and allowed the couple to process toward me. I like slightly side on look though, it's nice.

Love your work, Kevin. Feels like we approach weddings the same way. I used to photograph weddings 10-12 years ago with the old Nikon 28mm f/1.4D. When Mirrorless came out, I sold that lens to help buy my way into the Sony a7rII system, and bought the Sony 35mm f/1.4 - felt like it was good enough at the time. I did miss the 28mm focal length though - especially indoors in tighter rooms. I moved from Sony to the Fuji X-T2 for dual card slots, and I wanted to continue to downsize my gear, and mostly shot with the 23/1.4 and the 56/1.4. Love the image quality, but the old noisy AF of those lenses were a bit annoying. They didn't have the 18/1.4 at the time. One thing I felt Fuji struggled with, was low-light photography. Even with a large focal point, it seemed to hunt a lot when the lights got really dim. I clung on to one Nikon D750 camera body for this reason - and photographed the dance floor with that camera. The Nikon came out with the Z6 II, which pretty much put in on par with the Sony a7III. But the low AF availability was damn stellar. Best Low Light camera ability I've ever used. But... One of the reasons I moved to the Nikon Z6 II is for the 28mm f/1.4E (with the FTZ adapter). At the time, I moved back to Nikon, neither Sony nor Fuji had a fast 28mm field of view lens. That focal length is a fabulous documentary "street photography" style lens. Getting ready, cocktail hour, dancing - the 28mm focal length is magical to me. The Nikon 28/1.4 is HUGE and heavy by itself, and when you add the FTZ adapter, it's even more monsterous. ...but I still love it. ...Now?... this Fuji 18/1.4 really has my attention, as it's significantly smaller and lighter than Nikon's beast. Also saw Viltrox now has a 28mm f/1.8, which is WAY smaller than the old Nikon 28mm f/1.4E I purposefully buy small kits, so I have zero problem selling my gear, and moving from one brand to another. ...one of the perks of not being brand loyal - "The freedom to explore..." Thanks for this review. Much to ponder. :)

I'm torn between the the 16 f/1.4 & 23 f/1.4 (which I currently have/use) vs replacing both those lenses with the 18 f/1.4 - It's been ages since I used a 28mm FF equivalent (in my 35mm photojournalism days) having opted for the classic FF equivalents of 24, 35, 85 & 135 lens in my work. I also opted into getting the original 35 f/1.4 as my 5th lens but am now torn as to which way to go with regards to sticking with my current setup vs trading the two wide angles I currently have for the 18 f/1.4 - It would reduce the number of lenses carried but there have been a few times in my documentary and street work where the 16 focal length was absolutely needed due to not being able to move from my current shooting position. The 18mm seems to be the flavor of the moment for Fuji shooters right now and having followed you (and done a remote 1 on 1 consultation) I originally went with the 23 & 56 combo as my go to lenses (I shot the equivalents in Olympus for 7 years) - After watching this video - I'm still unsure whether the 18 is the right move for me. I live in a small enough town where there are no rental houses available to even get the lens in my hand to see if its an option - any thoughts?

Great to see you back on KZbin Kevin! It's such a beautiful lens, I simply had to get one. So far it's only really seen the Green Man Festival here in Wales, and a few gigs, but I'm really looking forward to working a wedding with it. The 18mm f/2 will always be my street lens, but having this low-light wonder makes for a holy trinity for me - the 18mm f/1.4, the 35mm f/1.4 and the 56mm f/1.2 sitting on my X-Pro3. I honestly don't need anything else. Well, maybe the X100V.

Great stuff as always Kevin, the images tell the story. That extra bit of width made some of those photos for me, it was the actions/reactions of those at the side of the frame that added to the central point and emphasised the joy and happiness of the occasion. I like the 18mm FOV, my XF10/X70 is always with me in tight busy street environments. I suspect like you a lot of Fuji shooters will be making a decision between the new 18 or 23, I think it's the 23 for me as I already have the 16mm 1.4. Great Fuji continue to offer us improved choice, long may that continue.

Do you shoot single shot, burst or a combination of the two?

I wait a long time before buying this lens for my X-Pro 2, because my two fav lens were XF 35 MM F/1.4 and....the XF/18 Mm F2. But the 18 mm (or 27 in FF) is really my choice if i have to go somewhere with only one Lens.I was at a point where i was wondering if i go to Sony Alpha 7 IV with the 24 mm F/1.4 G serie, but it cost a lot.. Same case with the Leica Q2. Fantastic machine, but out of my world right now.....And finally, thanks to your video, i took my 18 mm F/1.4 this Tuesday and stay with Fuji. We can see in your pictures how this lens is good. Super sharp, even at F/1.4, excellent micro-contrasts; nice bokeh. OK, it is bigger than my previous 18 mm F/2 but it worth it. Now, i'm just wondering if Fuji will launch one day or the other this year a new camera with a new sensor... I crave for an X- Pro 4. But right now, my X Pro 2 is still alive and super well. Keep doing this fantastic videos where the artistic moods, creativ analyses and human takes over the technical apsect. It is super cool to have a real photographer who talks about his job and its expectations instead of a Geek who will talk about technicalspecs etc....

Allow me to share a test I did recently that you might find interesting. I edited 2 color shots of a female model, one laying on a couch and one portrait, clothes on, no sexy stuff, normal for all ages shots. I changed them to black and white with some editing, and one to black and white with a tiny bit of a platinum look (not the vintage yellow) . Send the 3 shots, (Color, pure B/W and B/W plat.) to people (Male, Female, 25-75 years, no photographers) Guess what, 90% chose the monochrome over the color but surprisingly from that 90% more that 3/4 chose the platinum over the pure B/W. So there is still hope and love for B/W or Monochrome Photography Thanks for sharing

Great photos with your new favourite 18mm lens!!! Will it replace the 23mm focal length

You are a genius at capturing the spontaneous moments and I love your work! I would like to know, though, how you set your camera up so that you can achieve focus and correct exposure so quickly in order to avoid missing the moment?

Thanks Trudy. I use back button focus technique which allows me to shoot very quickly.

Fantastic as always…. I’ve now traded in some zoom lenses and bought this. You’ve been a HUGE inspiration to me. I especially love the double hug shot. Have you used your 2021 presets? Do I need to save up again 😂

Wonderful as always, Dr Mullins! Like you, I’m now more of an 18mm (27) shooter after years of the 23mm (35)…

Kevin, just came upon your video today. Great photos by the way. A quick question, have you used the XF 16mm F1.4 before? If yes, how does this compare? Looking for a low light event lens. The closest one I have right now is the XF23 F2.0, but it is still not quite wide enough. Not a professional photographer, but occasionally have family events that I am trying to document. Thanks in advance.

I did have the 16mm briefly. It's a great lens but was too wide for my liking.
