FUJIFILM XF 8mm f/3.5 Reviews

Good Not Great

It's totally average. Build quality as you'd expect from Fuji. Image Quality is fine, but the distortion at the edge of the frame makes the lens unusable if your subject falls too far outside of center. I've tried to use for concerts quite a few times (XH2s) and the images come out barely (and I mean BARELY) better versus using a smartphone. Probably works fine for well lit interiors and no real subject, as in architecture or real estate photography. But I would recommend this lens only for special situations and would not recommend it as a general-use UWA lens.

Amazing lens

I haven't used it as much as I want to yet, but so far the results are remarkable, and the depth of field, as one would expect, is massive.

Hi, can I use the Nisi V7 system with this lens? How significant is vignetting, is there an altern. for grad filters?
Asked by: Dwayne
Yes, the NiSi 100mm V7 Starter Kit can be mounted to the FUJIFILM XF 8mm f/3.5 R WR Lens, though you would need to also get a 62mm to 67mm step up ring like the PolarPro Brass Step-Up Ring (62-67mm) to make it work.
