Important information

Legal Disclaimer

I bought this last June. I am the only owner and I keep it in a humidity controlled dry box when it is not in use. I've used it for 11 portrait shoots, totaling 350 shots. It is in mint/pristine condition except for the smallest of dots on the filter thread that is missing paint (above the '1.2' of the '1:1.2' imprint). It is literally a fraction of a millimeter and was only noticeable to me when I took a macro image of the lens. I haven't used it once since last July so it's time to let this beauty go. It comes with everything that came with it originally including the original box and documentation. Happy shooting!

    Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 R

    Product Overview

    A fast F1.2 lens with a focal length of 85mm* that delivers beautiful background bokeh so it's ideal for portraiture. The lens' incredible resolving power is thanks to the modern optical design featuring 11 elements in 8 groups. Two ED (extra-low dispersion) elements and one double-sided aspherical element are used to control spherical and chromatic aberrations, while a further four of the elements feature convex surfaces to ensure excellent light coverage, even when shooting wide open.

    Like other XF lenses, the XF56mmF1.2 R is designed to be comfortable in use and has a premium quality look and feel.

    • * 35mm format equivalent

    Customers say

    Customers like the quality, sharpness, and value of the camera lens. For example, they mention it's a stunning lens, produces sublime images, and is incredibly sharp at wide open. That said, some appreciate comfort, and low light. That being said, opinions are mixed on focus, weight, and performance.

    AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

    98 customers mention98 positive0 negative

    Customers are satisfied with the quality of the lens. They mention that it's a stunning lens, takes sharp pictures with a nice bokeh, and renders very nicely. The image quality is one of the best, and it renders skin tones very naturally. The lens is a great portrait lens with amazing color rendering, and takes wonderful pictures.

    "...however, more than i would like, especially for video use, but the MF is so nice that it would be more useful in focus pulling for video anyway...." Read more

    "...This lens just renders very nicely.9. You can buy one 62mm neutral density filter and use it on both this lens and the 23/1.4...." Read more

    "...It takes remarkably sharp pictures with a nice bokeh when it is opened wide. It is an 85 mm equivalent and very well suited for taking portraits...." Read more

    "...It does wonders with skin tones and renders them very naturally .... It's IQ and resolution is more than a match with any Fuji X camera released..." Read more

    32 customers mention32 positive0 negative

    Customers are satisfied with the sharpness of the lens. They mention that it is extremely sharp at wide open, and super sharp corner to corner. Some say that it's too sharp for their blood.

    "...The 85-90mm focal length is one of my favorites. Tight if you move in close, yet loose enough to get just enough background and sense of place when..." Read more

    "...Some random thoughts:1. Wow is this thing sharp. Center, corners, everywhere, even wide open at f/1.2...." Read more

    "...as yet - It is a truly phenominal portrait lens - extremely sharp at every aperture and with an extremely pleasing bokeh at most times...." Read more

    "...Even so, sharpness is still very good at F1.2, and by F2 I'd say it's excellent if you need the extra resolution...." Read more

    20 customers mention15 positive5 negative

    Customers like the value of the camera lenses. They say that it is well worth the price, with the price steadily declining.

    "...This lens will be useful for many subjects, and is actually worth the high cost for a lens with a maximum f-stop of 1.2...." Read more

    "...to my Canon 85mm f/1.2, it's of course smaller and lighter, and much less expensive...." Read more

    "...For $650 this is probably the best value lens that Fuji makes next to the 16mm 1.4 (which will likely be my next purchase) it has beautiful bokeh,..." Read more

    "...compared to other high-end options for portraits in the range and overpriced compared to something like the Viltrox 56mm F1.4...." Read more

    10 customers mention10 positive0 negative

    Customers find the comfort of the lens to be sublime, dreamy, creamy, soft, and snugly. They say the bokeh is smooth and the metal body feels great. Customers also mention that the focus and aperture rings are smooth as silk.

    "...The BOKEH is sublime, dreamy, creamy, soft and snugly for the backgrounds. I'm a bokeh hunter. I look at my backgrounds as much as my subject...." Read more

    "...Its metal body feels great...." Read more

    "...To me the motor is almost silent, and the focus and aperture rings are smooth as silk...." Read more

    "...The circles of confusion (bokeh) are smooth and a pleasurable way to enhance the photograph...." Read more

    10 customers mention10 positive0 negative

    Customers are happy with the low light capabilities of the lens. They say that it is more than capable at low light, and produces incredible low-light shots with beautiful, buttery bokeh. They also mention that it performed beautifully in all kinds of light. Overall, customers are satisfied with the performance of this lens.

    "...it has beautiful bokeh, fantastic low light capability, and (when shooting boost mode) a nice snappy auto focus...." Read more

    "...It’s great in low light, a bokeh beast, and it’s image quality is second to none...." Read more

    "...Try this one. In describing the shooting environment it was a very well lit church...." Read more

    "...Low light works like a charm." Read more

    44 customers mention20 positive24 negative

    Customers are mixed about the focus of the lens. Some mention it's fast and accurate, while others say it'd be better with faster autofocus. The minimum focusing distance is long, and the lens has a tad slow autofocus speed.

    "...The autofocus does work well, it is smooth and generally locks on target quickly and accurately...." Read more

    "...Very well done.3. It's slower to focus on my X Pro1 and XE1 bodies than either of the zooms -- more like the Fuji 35mm f/1.4 lens...." Read more

    "...It takes about a second or 2. Almost all the time, the focus is good, because the camera recognizes faces and will lock onto them...." Read more

    "...This 56mm whirs, hunts sometimes, and often takes its time doing it low light, which also means tracking/continuous AF is frequently subpar in those..." Read more

    17 customers mention8 positive9 negative

    Customers are mixed about the weight of the camera lens. Some mention that they love the weight, while others say that it's a bit heavier, bulky, and unwieldy on small bodies. They also say that the lens has a heavy feel that adds weight to the ring.

    "...5. Compared to my Canon 85mm f/1.2, it's of course smaller and lighter, and much less expensive...." Read more

    "...It does have a bit of noise however, more than i would like, especially for video use, but the MF is so nice that it would be more useful in focus..." Read more

    "...The 90mm wasn't large by any means, but this thing is both very light and positively diminutive in terms of footprint, and even with the hood on..." Read more

    "...It does some beautiful work, but the AF motor is pretty loud, which is fine for B-Roll but that's about it...." Read more

    12 customers mention7 positive5 negative

    Customers are mixed about the performance of the lens. Some mention that it works great, is a good overall performer, and handles better. However, others say that the lens cap is horrible and unusable, the lens has underwhelming performance, and the tracking/continuous AF is frequently subpar.

    "...It is a glass jewel that works perfectly with the the X-T1 camera (and I am sure with all x-series Fuji’s), a marriage made in FujiFilm-land." Read more

    "...said, it's a lens that I really wish Fuji would update, as it's underwhelming compared to other high-end options for portraits in the range and..." Read more

    "...I generally leave my 35mm f2 on the camera; it's faster to focus, handles better, produces great shots, and tells a story...." Read more

    "...But I can't say this is a heavy lens. It works perfectly on my camera body. Balanced well especially with the metal hand grip I use...." Read more

    PERFECT PORTRAIT PARTNER: Detailed and Dreamy
    5 Stars
    PERFECT PORTRAIT PARTNER: Detailed and Dreamy
    The announcement of the FUJINON 56mm f/1.2 really strengthened my desire for the X-T1 camera (and to step out from my DSLRs to a compact system), so I preordered the body, the vertical grip, and this lens--my first and so far only Fuji glass for the x-series Fuji compact camera system.I shoot a lot of PORTRAITURE. Headshots, environmentals, bridals, fashion, journalism. The 85-90mm focal length is one of my favorites. Tight if you move in close, yet loose enough to get just enough background and sense of place when you back up some. And the size of the glass is not too big or heavy for easy carry and quick use. I also like a small prime as it forces you to move around and find the best angles (rather than zoom in and out)—I find that I generally shoot better when using primes because I work harder for the better composition.This lens has extraordinary BUILD QUALITY, just leaps above the plasticky (yet pricey) offerings of other major brands. I'm not knocking the quality of the glass of competitors, but the general sense of build and aesthetics doesn't usually come close to this. The Fuji just feels like it was built in another time period, when mechanical engineering and quality components was important.The MANUAL FOCUS RING is honestly one of the best i have ever felt. Damped with just the right amount of resistance with silky smooth turning...and a good amount of range for intricate focus feel. You almost wonder if its at the expense of a faster AF though. The autofocus does work well, it is smooth and generally locks on target quickly and accurately. It does have a bit of noise however, more than i would like, especially for video use, but the MF is so nice that it would be more useful in focus pulling for video anyway.The glass is SHARP as a tack, detailed, highly-resolving--even on the razor-thin edge of wide-open. Like all lenses it's even sharper stopped down a bit, especially to the corners, but the crispness is there, even across the entire focus plane at f/ 1.2.The BOKEH is sublime, dreamy, creamy, soft and snugly for the backgrounds. I'm a bokeh hunter. I look at my backgrounds as much as my subject. I create lighting effects just for bokeh. So i had to have this lens, and it does not disappoint.COLOR and CONTRAST are excellent, and DISTORTION is very well controlled. My only wish would be the MFD be a bit closer (it’s 70cm = 27.5” or 2.3 feet), but its not a macro lens and as such the ratio is only 0.09x (a bit less even than the 35mm f/1.4). Just think it could be a little more useful overall if it could focus just a bit tighter to fill the frame with the smaller objects (such as hands/rings portrait for wedding).It is SOLID, mostly metal, with a superb FEEL in the hand, and in use on the camera it balances very well with the X-T1/vertical grip combo. Might be a bit bulky and heavy matched to the smaller bodies though. The filter thread is 62mm, and it comes with a plastic hood. The included hood seems quite long and large for the lens, and although i am sure it will do its intended job, I've adapted a step-up ring with a quality UV filter and a much shorter metal hood to mine (62-67mm) just because i want the lens to stay on my camera and fit in a bag easily with no cumbersome hoods, caps, etc. in the way of quick shooting. The larger plastic hood would probably be more effective for flare (I just use my hand when I need to) and possibly for protection in case of drops. The front element/filter does not turn, which is useful for polarizers and other sFX filters. The focusing mechanics are completely internal which keeps the lens at a consistent length.The f/stops (on the lens) have softly-indented mechanical clicks--23 clicks between f/1.2 and f/16--with the "A" click setting to the far left. I love using a lens-equipped aperture ring, as I did in film days. Makes a quick transition between apertures easy and more intuitive while using your left hand and being able to keep your right finger on the shutter release.I absolutely love very FAST PRIME lenses. I shoot in all types of environments, and lighting is not always so good-- a fast lens can be very useful for low light and to separate the subject from the background well. I also frequently use a short telephoto range for action/sports such as basketball. A poorly lit gym can make things hard, but a very speedy lens can help you to get the needed shutter speeds to stop fast motion (without having to use ultra-high ISOs). This lens will be useful for many subjects, and is actually worth the high cost for a lens with a maximum f-stop of 1.2. Of course it is not the same as having a full-frame sensor with a comparable full frame glass, but you certainly have the useful light-gathering ability of the fast f-stop regardless of DOF comparisons.There is really not much to fault with this lens. It's a beauty, and it creates beautiful images. It makes it easy to work with and inspires my fingers to want to caress it into compositions. It is a glass jewel that works perfectly with the the X-T1 camera (and I am sure with all x-series Fuji’s), a marriage made in FujiFilm-land.

    Reviewed in India on November 20, 2019
    While the 90mm f2 and this 56mm f1.2 are both excellent lens for portrait, I like this one because of its low light capability and shorter focal length. This lens has amazing sharpness.

    The only downside is the focussing motor which makes a decent amount of noise. But that really should not matter if you are just into photography.
