Looks like an awesome alternative to the 56mm f/1.2 on my T3. Budget is king and I think this will be a great budget portrait lens. Thanks so much for sharing another great video
Why I'm watching this? I already got this lens, and it's fantastic! Agree it's fantastic
:D I appreciate it though! Cracking little lens.
have that lens and love it! completely gets out of the way and really delivers quality. brilliant, as are the other f/2 "fujicrons"
I have 50F2 on my T3 . For my style it’s spot on . I did seriously consider the the 56F1.2 but the speed image rendering and WR was the winning factor. I would have the edge not missing a shot. Great review Damian
Great no BS review that doesn't repeat repeat repeat (unlike so many on RUclips) - look forward to trying one soon. Many thanks 😎😎😎
Hi Bro. Have been enjoying your videos along with your humour. Have recently been putting the 50mm f2 through it's paces and find I don't miss the 56mm f1.2 . The f2 is as sharp as the 1.2 but loses the bokeh. For wedding work, particularly reportage style, it is much more 'discreet' and produces s better response from the subject. It is certainly as good as the 35 f2 if not slightly better. Mounted on a X-Pro2 it us very light and easy to use one handed for candid street photography taken from a respectable distance. It seems to stay on one of my two bodies permanently whilst the 16mm and 35mm rotate on the other body. These f2 lenses do represent the Fuji ethos more than their heavier siblings. However the 16mm has to be owned no matter how heavy it is. Hope to meet one day.
Great comments Gary, I have to agree with you :) Yes, it would be good to meet! Thank you
That last pic Damian - the monochrome one of the building - that's a corker of a shot that is 👍
The Hyatt!
I have this and its just awesome!! I switched over from Canon this weekend I got my XT2 and this lens on Christmas eve 2019 I went out on Christmas day to shoot some images and I have to say WOW!! just love the Fuji colours and the XT2 is amazing 9its a huge step up from my 5DMk2 and L series lenses and im so glad I made the switch
Im going to enjoy the next few months getting used to this system and buying a set of lenses to replace all my canon items
so glad I got this 50mm its a brilliant little lens so sharp the colours are just amazing the focusing is fast I got mine from MPB for £334
now thats a bloody bargain!
I was shooting a canon 200D today and really missed my Fuji :D But it was for the channel so no choice. I love going back to my Fuji after shooting another set up :)
@@DamianBrown hahaha nothing like going backwards to actually see how far you have moved forward . . .Im a wolves boy living in High Wycombe now trying to make it as a wedding photographer . I thought i would stay with Canon but Im so glad Ive switched Im actually excited about my photography again!
merry Christmas mate have a good break
@@michaelreynolds6543 as long as you're not a wolves fan mate! Enjoy the fuji, there's nothing like it :)
@@DamianBrown nah hate football but they did well yesterday hahahah anyway quick question after getting my XT" and I'm loving spending time with it the results are amazing! I was dismayed to find out the myriad problems regarding freezing and locking up. I spent a long time yesterday looking at forums and getting depressed - just when Id found a bloody great camera that I'm beginning to love I find out all is not well. I had heated discussions with various people over 3rd party batteries and cards and the consensus is to use original Fuji batteries and Sandisk cards above 90mb/s
I'm particularly concerned about the battery grip as I'm looking to get one next week
your thoughts would be very welcomed
Got this lens not too long ago, and, yes, I agree. It's so good for the price and size that you get! One caveat, though, is that it's a little soft with f2 at minimum focusing distance.
I also did get a shot where the blur was just all over the place, like it was sharp from and closely around the focus point and to the right of it. The rest of the area on the left is blurry. That could be just not paying attention.
Yeah! I've been waiting for this
If i ever needed a 80mm equivalent lens for my fuji. it would be this 50mm f2. it would go nicely with my 35mm f2 lens
A very belated comment....only just found this excellent site. Great reviews, tight and practical ++
Many ,despite far higher prices, are attracted by the low light speed demons- all camera owners seem to believe " faster is better"- even if many have to be stopped down to f2-4 etc to give best results. Fair price jump to 56 1.2 and not sure the tighter focal length. Fuji seem to be adopting the Leica Summicron f/2 approach. Still have Summicron 35/2 Aspherical and 50/2 and are simply superb lens- now less used for film.
As am into Fuji X system, may purchase 16 1.4 as appears to be most highly regarded X lens, though not a focal length I would use a lot! Agree, this potential purchase doesn't make a lot of sense for me, all about "pride of ownership " & will be moving my feet a lot to get framing I want.
Apologies for lengthy post and praise again to Damian.
Really really like your channel. Great inspiration and reviews :-)
Thank you!!
DAMN! I love your channel! :)
That makes me happy, thanks!!!
Great review as always with a flow like a pro - and focus on the important things :)
Thanks man
I just have bought the 50mm 2.0, and shooting for a couple of days. It's so far, really good. Nice bokeh.
Enjoy!!
For weddings which would you choose: the 50 or 56 for indoor ceremony shots? Is the extra stop that much better or the faster focusing speed of the 50? Thanks!
Great review, thaks for it! I hope to get my copy next week... here in Chile.
Thanks Hugh, enjoy man
Great review. I find it hard to put into words why I like this so much but your... humanity. Your honesty. That really shines through. What I would have loved was some comparison shots with the 56mm AND some shots taken from the X-T10 since that's one of the camera's I might use it on. Thanks for the review!
Wow, so kind!!!
Good idea, I don't think you'd go far wrong to be fair.
Casual as you like always lovely to see your inoffensive, no bollocks style vids Damian,, hope the numbers grow, though you don't seem to be caring too much! So little ego for a photographer, keep it up ! I love Fuji (my kit is X-Pro1, XM1, 18mm F2, 35mm F4, Rikenon 50mm F2, Rikenon 24-135, Vivitar 24mm F2.8 and Fuji 55-200mm zoom. There's still nothing like Fuji cameras for superb IQ without spending your inheritance! Love full manual shooting. taking the time to get the shot instead of taking 5000 shots with a .000001s autofocus and a pile of crap to delete! (Correction, yeah I still get a pile of crap to delete)
Thanks a lot, that's super cool of you to say. I'm so surprised the subscriber count has shot up to where it is so I'll keep trying to enjoy doing this for myself, and the people that appreciate it!
You got some great kit there, I haven't tried Rikenon or that Vivitar but they're on my list!!!
The IQ is really good.
Hi Damion, I’ve just bought this Fuji 50mm f2 and I’m using it on my xe3 focuses really quickly and if you put the xe3 on to silent mode the whole thing takes really quick and quite focusing which will be a fantastic bonus if you shoot a church wedding.
Great combo Katherine!!! Thanks for sharing
What a super good little sharp lens :)
I got mine just a couple of hours ago! Wanted to watch something that would validate my decision! Hahahahaha! Thanks for this video Damian! :)
I always do that 😂 looking a looooot of videos about a thing i want to buy, buy this thing and then looking again a loooot of videos to validate my decision
Is the auto focus really good? I want to use it for portrait photo shoots and possibly have the person moving around. So is the lens worth it, or save 200 dollars and just get a manual focus off brand lens?
Not what I wanted to hear, but brilliant lens review. Thank you.
Thanks! Did you wanna hear it's trash and save some cash? I've been there :D
Great review, Damian, and on the money regarding this awesome gem of a lens. I just ran some comparison tests against the XT2 with the 50 mm F2 against my full frame albeit older Sony A850 with the CZ 50 mm F1.4, and apart from the advantages of a wider aperture, the Fujinon 50 mm F2 was as sharp and as delightful as the CZ. A stunning lens. Really comes into magical territory around the sweet spot of F4-5.6, but you rightly point out that bokeh seekers should look at the 56 mm for slightly better out-of-focus performance and portraiture. I love owning this lens, and it sits proudly next to the 16 mm and 35 mm Fujinon primes that live permanently in my camera bag, along with the XT2.
Thanks for the comments Dean, great set up you have there Fuji appear to sprinkle some magic dust on these lenses!
Hey Damian, i like your reviews and for some reason i just didnt even recognize this lense. Now i need to wait for the viltrox 56mm 1.4. but for some reasons i think the xf could be the better choice.
Keep on working like this.
I'm looking forward to seeing that one too! Honestly this is a nice compact lens that performs really well as it is.
thanks damian :) are you still collaborating with CalPhoto? they replied on FB a couple of months back they were in talks with you for getting hands on the GFX
They keep saying yes, even calling me to ask how it's going with the review... then chasing it up for me. Let's see how it goes :)
Excellent video, and I like your style.
Thank you!
Great video Damien! The WR feature is a clincher for me.
Thanks!
I actually love this lens...I have the 23..F2 and now this 50mm F2 and it has an amazing bokeh...and sharpness for both lenses..The 50mm does not focus as quickly on the Xpro 1 as the 23mm. Now for the 35mm I have found an 1.4 on Ebay and ordered that....because I want that difference with one lens...Am I happy with this 50mm and do I think it has a little magic...Hell yes..
Of all the f2 wr lenses I think this might be my favourite!
I’ve got the same combination of the 23 f2 and 50 f2 and I shoot 90% of my photos with these lenses. They are superb
The 35mm 1.4 is truly awesome too..Way better than a lot of the reviews..
Jack McKechnie Same. Just ordered the 1.4 and put the f2 on ebay.
I have the 56mm f/1.2, but I'm not loving it. I'll probably sell it and go for the 50mm f/2.
It's definitely a nice little lens!
very good review - quite well done
Thanks
Nice vids, looking to invest in a t2 next month, you gone move good food for thought about which lenses I want 👍🏾
Ye the T2 is a sound investment!
I own the 18-55 and the 50-140 for weddings and love it but i'm thinking about 23mm, or 35mm, or 50mm especially for couples. But i'm so indecisive.
Too much goodness out there to choose from. Out of that list, for me, maybe the 50 is a happy medium looking at what you've got. Way smaller lighter and a touch faster aperture, a lot less "intimidating" for portraits.
35mm f1.4
Damian, I currently only have the 18-55 that I use for the odd studio portrait session. Whilst I'm relatively happy with the results, would the 50mm give me noticeably more detail and sharpness?
I'd say try to get one to test out. I think it's an improvement though.
Cheers. Appreciate you taking the time to comment.
I love mine!
Thanks for watching Paul!
Nice compositions
Thanks Rod
I have OCD then. I love the trio!!! 😂😂😂😂
It's a great trio :)
Yup, it's next on my shopping list. Then the 16 for Christmas.
Love the 16, got it at the moment!
Excellent lens i must say and this lens is definitely a bargain.
Love it!
Nice local pics too - do you post to the local Instagram group?
Thanks Mike, I don't :S
I just wish for more close focusing so i got the zeiss touit 50mm macro planar suits my needs better
The surprised face! :O lol
Bit sad really but I was doing it and thought, get a few snaps so grabbed the camera next to me!
It’s not cheap for a aps f2
Shame - see you at Calumet sometime....
Catch you there soon! :D They love it when we harass them :D
Phuji you say
yes
Theoria Apophasis you fucking suck
Ken is awesome. Knows his shit. Fuji!
Ken, is rarely wrong with his advice.
At least Damian is an actual photographer instead of just being a gear junkie.
Man, all you do is gripe this could be better that could be better, not even a review a whining event
Where does it say review? :)
Gripes? I said "it's a little beauty,
Oh I said "nice solid feel to it."
"Clicks through the range nicely..."
"Fits perfectly..."
"I think you'll be fine with it..."
"One of the better performers.."
Maybe it's my accent but I feel like most of this video is positive and not whining.
I think you're watching a different video. But I'm happy you're here :)
