I got my XF23mm f/2
I have had my XF23mm f/2.0 for about a week now, so here is an example of a
Jaguar public service road sign. https://www.dropbox.com/s/xf00ayp1c8vwsaw/DSCF5048-E.jpg https://www.dropbox.com/s/inbrrz2yfrxtg17/DSCF5049-E.jpg https://www.dropbox.com/s/w7hqsjwn1xfspp6/DSCF5050-E.jpg -- Regards, Savageduck |

I assume these are SOOC? As the file numbers ascend, they become more underexposed. Also, aren't you supposed to show this type of lens off wide open? Are those next? I do think that planter on the package shelf is a nice touch... |

The 1st car shot was startling, buried like that. I was stopped down to f/8. It seems to have a pretty large sweet spot between f/2.8-f/11. Wide open there is a barely perceptible softness in the corners, but for the most part that is irrelevant. For a $449 lens I am impressed, and I think I am going to use this as my walk-around street prime for a while. I can but think of the contrast between my Nikkor lenses, and my Fujinon X-lenses. Amongst my Nikkor lenses used on my D300S I have a few real dogs, and some which are surprisingly good performers. I have no complaints with any of my Fujicon lenses. Now I have five, the 14mm f/2.8, 23mm f/2, 35mm f/1.4, 18-55mm f/2.8-f/4, and 55-200mm f/3.5-f/4.8. I have my eye on a few more to round out the weaponry for my X-T2. All I can say is Fujifilm makes some very good glass. -- Regards, Savageduck |

Thanks. I assume these are SOOC? Nope! They are slightly tweeked RAFs, mostly some lifting of shadows and contrast. Here is the SOOC JPEG of the first one. https://www.dropbox.com/s/di9q6ipfdeducn4/DSCF5048.jpg As the file numbers ascend, they become more underexposed. That was due to me walking around to the shady side without making any aperture adustment. I was using Auto ISO 200-1600. The first two were at ISO 200, and the third jumped to ISO 400. Also, aren't you supposed to show this type of lens off wide open? I wasn’t actually thinking of showing off the lens, but more of the quirkiness of the subject. Are those next? Yup! Here is a quick SOOC JPEG, I shot 10 minutes ago. ISO 200, f/2.0, 1/40 sec. https://www.dropbox.com/s/2k83352fnbp7ibl/DSCF5051.jpg I do think that planter on the package shelf is a nice touch... -- Regards, Savageduck |

I know this was talked about here in the past, but what, again, are all those ovals/circles mostly near the top of the photo? Something to do with highlights peeking through the trees? |

That is Bokeh, or shallow DoF OoF rendering. Light filtering through trees/leaves can emphasize the effect most typically demonstrated with fast lenses shot wide open. -- Regards, Savageduck |
