(My last review of this lens discussed a lens that produces solid image quality marred with a slow auto and manual focus, however, the focus issues have been fixed by a firmware update.)
Look and feel: this portrait angle lens is a relatively small low profile that fits well in proportion with the x-pro1 body. The lens hood is quite large and doubles its lens length. Lens and hood (!) is all metal in construction.
Operation: The firmware released late September 2012 improved the function of the lens greatly bringing up the speed of manual and autofocus. Hunting can still occur when contrast focus misses, but those 10 seconds of hunting has been drastically cut down to what feels like ~3 seconds. Manual focus is fast and now quite usable.
Usage of EVF is recommended as opposed to the usage of OVF for purpose of confirming focus on subjects.
Recommended.

This lens is much like the other two Fuji primes, sharp, contrasty and wonderful. The focus speed, however, is abysmally slow. I have found myself focusing it manually until it is really close and then, and only then, initiating the autofocus. Otherwise you wait an interminable length of time for it to go from infinitely close to infinitely far away.
But for its intended use as a macro product where you are more likely to focus it by placement or fine movement, the autofocus is an afterthought. The beauty of the images overpowers any such criticism.

Excellent bright lens for flower closeup and portrait shots. Teamed with the 14 mm and 18-55 mm lenses is all I need.

Slow
Very slow focusing lens, even with all the updates. Really only useful on manual with a tripod. Nice bokeh though. Wait for the 58mm next year.

Very good first impression
actually I need more time to fully evaluate the subtle quality of image. But the first impression is very good. Both optics and workmanship. Read more
