Ranking my 5 MOST USED Fujifilm Lenses of 2024

[@edc5338]

The new 16-55 2.8ii is my go to lens. It's excellent.

[@pmac_fotografia1]

In terms of sharpness how do you compare with the primes?

[@edc5338]

@@pmac_fotografia1 Sharpness is great. I prefer zooms but do use a few primes. I still have the older 16-55, which is a good lens, but this new version is easier to handle.

I'm new to photography and only have two lenses with my X-T5 1. XF 27 F2.8 WR 2. XF 70-300 Going to Japan in a few months and thinking about getting 1-2 more lenses there. Below is my wish list in sequence (I won't get them all). 1. XF 18 F1.4 2. Viltrox 13 F1.4 3. XF 16-55 F2.8 mark ii 4. XF 23 F1.4 5. XF 33 F1.4 6. Sigma 10-18 F2.8 I like taking photos for travel / cityscape / architecture and want at least one lens with F1.4 for night shoot. Any suggestions?

[@mrboxer8294]

Viltrox 27mm f1.2 for travelling, family, environmental portraits, close ups, low light XF 16mm f1.4 for architecture and family Xf 33mm f1.4 (All-rounder) & Viltrox 75mm f1.2 for traditional portraits and in confined spaces xf 50mm f2.0. For real estate and landscapes, I use the Viltrox 13mm f1.4

[@sfgallo1542]

My ranking: 1. xf16-55 f2.8 mk1 - for traveling and landscapes 2. xf23 f1.4 WR - for low light and events (indoors) 3. xf35 f1.4 - for portraits and 4. Viltrox 75 - for indoor sports and outdoor portraits 5. xf70-300 - for soccer and landscapes 6. Samyang 12 - for landscapes, in case of xf16-55 ist too long

[@RukiSeed]

1. Fuji 18-55 f2.8 2. Fuji 35 f 1.4 3. Viltrox 27mm 1.2 4. Fuji 18-55 f2.8-4 5. Viltrox 13mm 1.4

[@9Mtikcus]

didn't use 5 lenses lol Fuji 10-24 F/4 (Original) (mostly for video) Sigma 56mm F/1.4 Sigma 23mm F/1.4 Fujifilm X100 VI with the 23mm F/2 (by far my most used lens of 2024) I really can't see 2025 being any different, as I'm happy with my lens and cameras, other photographers use other lenses, but really apart from something like a 35-100 F/2.8 being released (that is smaller and lighter than the Fuji 50-140) that I can use for events/theatre photography, i doubt I'll buy a single piece of camera equipment in next 12 months

[@mattlife25]

Sigma 18-50mm 2.8 is my go to when I travel

[@chazlyle41]

56/1.2, 23/2(X100), 23/1.4, 16/1.4, 14/2.8 I own a dozen or more Fuji primes and I only use these 5 over and over and over. Keep thinking about selling the rest. Glass is just nice to keep around, and I share them with my brother from time to time.

[@pragmathism]

1 - Fuji XF 35mm F1.4 (this is such an amazing lens I just keep putting it back on the camera) 2 - Fuji XF 27mm F2.8 3 - Fuji XF 16-80mm F4 4 - Fuji XF 23mm F2 Planning on buying the new 16-55 f2.8 while selling 16-80 and 23 f2 !

[@TDsinkup]

Great video! My list has only three: 1. XF 23mm f/2.0 2. XF 60mm f/2.4 macro 3. XF 90mm f/2.0 Just swapped my X-E2 for a X-S20. So now I have IBIS. Don't shoot a lot of video (yet), so I'm not sure I'll keep it or swap it for an X-T50 with more dials. I also own a XF 18-135mm but it's too big to carry around and pictures don't really wow me. Didn't use it this year. Probably going to sell it and then grab me a Viltrox 27mm f/1.2 for low light situations. I love the fov of a 35-40 FF! Also I want to add a wide angle lens to my kit for architecture, indoor and landscape. Sigma 10-18mm f/2.8 or Samyang 12mm AF f/2.0. Not sure yet.

[@ice2thety]

i'm on the fuji system since 5 years now and the only lenses i own are the 16-55 2.8 and the 50-140 2.8, with this combo u can almost do anything. (i also got the x2 converter for the second one :p)

[@Powerland56]

1. X100VI 😉 2. XF 33 1.4 3. XF 18 1.4 4. Viltrox 75 1.2 5. XF 150-600

[@Jay_Ducker]

Good set!

[@winterDay21]

1. XF 56 f1.2 for character 2. XF 23 f2 for everyday (also a light travel set with the 56) 3. XF 16-55 f2.8 for that IQ while flexibility (great for shooting weddings) 4. XF 70-300 for wildlife Until fuji comes out with a fast wide-angle (20ish in terms of ff) that'll be it.

[@Jay_Ducker]

Like it!

[@jcmt8178]

When you discuss the lenses and their focal lengths, is it all in FF? Or some of them are APS-C that you use, e.g., with X-S20?

[@DeidraKemmerly-w5j]

Thanks for sharing such valuable information! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?

[@dibsaikia302]

Totally agree with the list. I personally have not used the TTArtisans one though. My kit currently- 1. Xh2S 2. xf16-55 2.8 (2 units😬) 3. xf33 1.4 4. Viltrox 13 1.4 Currently contemplating on the 18-120 pz! A review on that would be nice!

[@Jay_Ducker]

Good set man!

[@Just_Kev_]

I have a X-T5 and a A7CR. Looking to buy a 24-70mm for my Japan trip next spring.. dilemma is.. do I go with the Fuji 16-55mm 2.8 II or Sigma 24-70mm 2.8 DG DN II?? My heart says Fuji but with the Sigma I can take advantage of the full frame 60 MP of the Sony 🤔🤔🤔

[@MisterPubichair]

I'm also looking for a good versatile standard zoom when travelling. The Sigma needs an adapter right ?

[@Jay_Ducker]

Tough decision Kev! Go with your heart

[@smoloms]

I love this. Gotta do a continuation of this every year. My most used lens for the last two years has been the sigma 18-50. Then my minolta 45 f2 Then Minolta 50 f1.7 I love my Minolta primes

[@csaba.brindza]

I have only two lenses, but here they come: 1. Fuji 23mm 1.4 LM 2: Fuji 33mm 1.4 LM I love them both, high quality ones, the 23 mm has an edge as that focal length is my fav

[@Jay_Ducker]

On order hey!!

[@buck02]

is Fuji 27mm 2.8 inferior than ttartisan 27mm other than the price? I am wondering

[@Jay_Ducker]

No I would say the price is just much better

[@Sleepyhippie]

The Fuji 27mm would be sharper at the corners (lens character though?) and is smaller. The Mk2 version also added weather sealing. TTartisan is just so much cheaper in comparison though you could almost buy another lens with the money saved.

[@createdbyrohan]

maybe it's just me but my most used lens is still the 18-55 kit lens 😂 it's just so good - if I'm shooting in lower light I like the f2 primes, feel like I don't need more light than that
