    IQ is excellent, but not in low light and ended up on returning this lens. I bought the 23mm 1.4 instead because of the Fuji rebate. This 27mm lens is faster to focus than the 35mm f/1.4 maybe just because the lens only have few glass inside.

    I am very pleased with this lens. Very surprised how sharp it is for it's size and price. Two things that are missing is a manual aperture dial and a wider aperture. I guess for the price I can't complain. Highly recommend this lens.

    Relatively good image quality, versatile focal length, and great size and weight. I pair it with my X-E3 when I want to head out with a light and discrete kit. Only complaint is that front element moves when focusing, and autofocus is a bit noisy when taking video, if you are recording audio.

    I compared this head to head against the Fuji 23mm and I couldn't tell the difference. Very small, so inconspicuous. Sharp, great color and bokeh.

    I wanted a light small prime for my Fuji X-E3, This little lens is just what I wanted. It's not whisper quiet but its not really loud, its very light and hardly adds size to my X-E3 and the Images Im getting are very nice!. Only thing you might want on it is an Aperture Ring. Oh it also helped that it was on special when I got it.

    I really enjoying my new lens. It's good for travel, compact and light. Easy to bring anywhere. Espcially design is so fancy. I have bundle lens and this one. It's good for beginner photographer.

    At this price I couldnt pass it up. Not as sharp as some of Fuji's other primes, but it will still give you great image quality. Small size makes it a great walk around lens.

    This pancake lens is a great addition to a Fuji X-series setup, especially if you are looking for a small setup. It's the Fuji equivalent to the Canon 40mm pancake.There's not much more for me to say that hasn't already been said by other reviewers, except that this does sometimes go on sale and when it does and you're looking to even further reduce the size of your every day small format shooter, this and the 18mm are the lenses to get.

    Don't expect this lens to perform as well as the 14mm, 23mm, or 35mm. This however work very nicely while traveling due to is slim design and almost weightless. Recently price drop to $200 makes it hard to pass on.

    Bought this lens for my Fujifilm X-A3 mirrorless camera. Fast aperture and wide enough for great street photography. This pancake lens makes it more enjoyable to take your camera around even more.

    A high quality lens for Fujifilm X series cameras. The new updated 27mm f2.8 is $400 and this "old" lens was $250. It suits my needs just fine, and is a very usable focal length.

    Great walkaround lens for Fuji

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I got this lens due to Fuji having a price drop on all of their lenses. So, I was able to purchase this for a couple hundred dollars less than the regular pricing. I have the 35mm lens, but for walking around it was a little too long for that. Given the price, reviews, and size of this lens I knew it'd be a good fit for me. When I got it and used it I saw that it was perfect for my needs. Very good quality lens, and very small, perfect combination with a Fuji camera for all day shooting.
