The 35mm f/2 lens is designed specifically for the X -Pro3 (and the previous 1 & 2). The slightly conical shape of the lens is to minimize the obstruction of the X pro 0VF. That “silly” lens hood, with the vents cut in the metal, is also to minimize obstruction of the OVF. When the len hood is in place, it does block the Ovi F. The holes in the lens hood are to allow you the ability to see through the lens hood at your subject.

Great side-by-side comparison of these two. I've gone back and forth a couple of times, but ultimately settled on the 35/2 for its slightly smaller form factor and weather sealing, which I have come to appreciate for hiking and humid summers here in the American South. It's hard to beat the magic of the 1.4 when you need it and that lens really does render in a special way, but as an all-around, everyday lens for the Fuji system, I'd have to say the 35/2 is the way to go. Put the couple-hundred in savings towards another lens like the (very good) 50/2. Or buy some photo books to spark inspiration. :)

Even in mechanical the xt4 is very quite. I find that if I have it set to single point and the square small. Continuous tracking so I’m controlling the where then it locks on and tracks brilliant.

Thanks for sharing the video and tests, sorry for the long read. Im a wedding photographer and used to have both of these. When covid 19 came, i had to make a decision to sell one. For me Its was obvious which one had to go. I am in the business of capturing real moments with only split second opportunities. Here Its vital I have fast AF and simply cannot afford to wait for slow AF motor to catch up to the scene. So the F2 version was a clear winner here. Also When I checked my data and saw that most of my aperture settings where from F2- F5.6 with the average around f3.2. Even with my 56mm f1.2 I never used anything under F2. Keep in mind i need sharp in focused images that require enough depth field to have both eyes sharp and if i can get the nose in focus even better. I tested both for sharpness and did some extreme unnecessary pixel peeping and with my eyes I couldn’t see any difference whats over ever. There is only a slight very slight difference in the background softness. But but the f2 gives you plenty of that anyway. My experience is unique and I can understand of others prefer the f1.4, thats also an amazing lens but if your doing similar reportage to me. Maybe consider the f2

@@Isaac-do3sx there is a lot of variables there. It’s not that B&W, Firstly the 56mm f1.2 AF is a lot better then the 35mm f1.4 regarding AF, going from the 56mm f1.2 to the 50mm F2, yes it’s a step up with AF but not like a giant leap as the the 35mm options. You can still get a good ratio of action shots in focus using the 56, although I agree the 50mm F2 is better. I actually have both and basically use the 50mm for the action stuff especially outdoors. But I am now considering selling both for the 50mm f1.0. I probably won’t save much on cost and weight, but having less gear, less to lug around and also changing lenses less often is an attractive option.

Hallo Jochen, great video! I own the X-pro1 since November (came with the 18/2), bought the 35/1.4 and the 23/2. AF wise the Camera is a different beast with the newer 23/2. focusses faster and nearly silent. Not so with the original lenses. They perfectly workable though. The images coming out of the 35/1.4 are great. Just a different vibe to the 23/2. I d say more pastel colors and an organic look whereas the 23/2 has more contrast. I was tempted to get the 35/2 as well, just to compare. Some sell locally for 250 chf. I like the compactness and looks of the f2 ones. I am just a hobby photographer and I am fine with f2. Had the x100t for 5 years as my only camera, never a problem with f2. I d say the magic of the 1.4 comes out in portraits the most. If you mostly shoot streets and document life around you, I think the f2‘s are perfect. Faster, silent & more compact. Also if you like to use OVF the f2‘s don‘t get in the way. I think if someone is serious about photography or a pro, you could very well own both 35‘s for different situations. Cheers from Switzerland

Thank you Michel and cheers back to the beautiful Schweiz! I can really recommend the 35mm f2, also in addition to the f1.4, Of course it seems a little bit crazy, but this focal length is so versatile and the two can be used on so different occasions that I don't regret keeping both.

@@Jayshooter_photo yeah I still wonder if I should try to grab the 35/2 just to see how I like it. I bought the 23/2 to see how the newer f2 lenses perform on the old diva being X-Pro1 (much faster and near silent - I have to say though that I like the feeling of the older lenses, the camera feels less digital and clinical with them - can you understand that 🤔) and to get the same focal length as my X100T in order to replace it. I am a minimalist at heart and like the idea of 1 camera only. I mean I am just a hobby photographer, I don‘t need multiple gear. Less gear more shooting! But here we are and I have an X-Pro1 with 3 lenses, X100T (first Fuji and only camera for the last 5 years) and a Nikon FE with two lenses (adapting to the X-Pro1 as well). I start to realise why I got the X100T in the first place, 1 camera, 1 lens. less is more! I really like the X-Pro1. Something about the shooting experience. I prefer it over the X100T. The body fits my hands better. But the X100T is just so compact, you can stick it in your jacket no problem. So I wonder if I should downsize my lenses on the X-Pro1 to just the 35. (Sell the 23/2 - maybe keep the 18/2 mh maybe not 🤔 and keep the X100T with the 23/2. uffff hard to decide. What would you do? I believe less is more and too much gear gets in the way. I could very well see myself just owning the X-Pro1 with the 35 (even both of them 🙄) and get the most out of it. I am still learning, makes sense to stick to one focal length...for the moment. Sorry just realized how much I wrote 😆. Starting to snow again here, near Zürich. Lets see if we get covered in snow again! Cheers

@@Jayshooter_photo just saying. Germany has crazy, paranoid photography laws where you need permission to display photographs of people. As opposed to countries that say if youre out in public you have not expectation of privacy and anyone can take a photo of you as long as its not used for commercial purposes
