Call me biased, but with exceptional image quality in both in-focus and out-of-focus areas, plus dead-on accurate autofocus, these SIGMA F1.4 DC DN primes are easily worth the extra coin, and they won’t end up collecting dust.Fujinon XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 R LM OIS lens testīig test lens Fujifilm: Fujinon XF 14mm F2.8 Rīig test lens Fujifilm: Fujinon XF 18mm F2 Rīig test lens Fujifilm: Fujinon XF 23 mm F1.4 Rīig test lens Fujifilm: Fujinon XF 27mm F2.8īig test lens Fujifilm: Fujinon XF 35mm F1.4 Rīig test lens Fujifilm: Fujinon XF 56mm F1.2 Rīig Fujifilm lens test: Fujinon XF 60mm F2.4 R Macroįujifilm Big Test Lenses: Fujinon XF 10-24mm F4 R OISįujinon XF 16-55mm F / 2.8 R LM WR lens testīig test lens Fujifilm: Fujinon XF 18-135mm F / 3.5-5.6 R LM OIS WRįujinon XF 50-140mm F / 2.8 R LM OIS WR lens testīig Fujifilm lens test: Fujinon XF 55-200mm F / 3.5-4.8 OIS R LMīig Fujifilm lens test: Fujinon XC 16-50mm F / 3.5-5.6 OISīig Fujifilm lens test: Fujinon XC 50-230 mm F4.5-6.7 OISįujifilm X is a photosystem clearly focused on quality fixes. While these types of lenses can be tempting, out of focus areas are often “busy” or awash with unattractive optical aberrations, far from the high-quality vintage look many buyers expect.

Incidentally - and I mention this because I worked at a camera shop for 13 years and witnessed the disappointment firsthand - there are lots of cheap, fast-aperture, manual focus lenses out there for APS-C format cameras, many available for X Mount, that have a similarly shallow depth of field. What remains is a pin-sharp subject that stands out from its surroundings with a “pop” that this focal length is celebrated for. Falloff is gradual and smooth, backgrounds turn soft and dreamy, and any distracting details - front or back - fade gracefully away. While many lenses can blur a background, it is the quality of that blur and the amazing sharpness of what is in focus that really makes the 56mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary stand out. But with three amazing lenses to play with, I was more than happy with the change of scenery.

Unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans for me, with a wet, gloomy Saturday followed by a frigid, snowy Sunday, so my jaunt through the big city became a slippery hike through local parks (and an exercise in keeping swirling snow off my image sensor).

So the SECOND we received pre-production samples in the SIGMA America office, I squirreled away a copy of each lens, along with a Fujifilm X-T4 body, and planned my weekend trip to Brooklyn for some street and architecture photography. So far, these lenses have been released for Sony E-mount, Canon EF-M, Micro Four Thirds, and even L-Mount, and in each case, they have become among the most popular crop format lenses for each system. Simple to use, ultra-fast F1.4 aperture, razor-sharp image quality, and affordable to own, the 16mm, 30mm and 56mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary lenses are favorites among crop-sensor mirrorless shooters, and it’s not hard to see why. Three super-fast prime lenses - with autofocus! - that are compatible with X Mount.
