Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 evaluation: Fuji performance of their own hundred micro how?

In the past, people often said that workers want to be good, must first sharpen its tools, so you want to make a good macro, macro lens is essential .In September 2017, Fuji released its anti-macro lens XF 80mm F2.8 R LM OIS WR Marco, with the equivalent of 5 shutter anti-shake system, all-weather design, and better focus system, etc., give us a huge surprise.Fuji X-card mouth first micro From the lens XF 60mm F2.4 R Macro 6 years, and the latest Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 macro lens What are the new features that can bring us what kind of shooting experience?

Macro lens can be said that each interchangeable lens system is an essential lens type, Fuji X-Pro1 in the first single when it released a simultaneous launch of an equivalent 90mm macro lens, the launch The Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 macro lens equivalent to 120mm, there are some differences in the use, because so many years apart, so it is applied to the new technology is also significantly more.

First, Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 appearance comments

Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 macro lens with a metal mirror body, the appearance of the Fuji X mount continues the lens design, texture is very durable, all-weather protection design, with a sealed and dust-proof anti-drip design for a variety of outdoor or Poor shooting environment.

Aperture ring is a narrow metal ring, rotating up a sense of scale, focusing ring with wide tooth rubber, large enough, not easy to misuse, it is also very comfortable to use. Whether it is the focus of the ring damping, ring or ring the sense of scale, the use of Very high sense of up.

The mirror body has two levers, the left is the OIS anti-shake system switch, the right is the focus range selection lever, FULL full range, 0.5m to infinity, 0.25m to 0.5m three gear, when the focal length of 0.25 m up to a maximum of 1: 1 magnification settings and the common macro lens is similar.

The rugged metal bayonet and metal contacts at the aft end of the lens with an inner focus design and focus driven by a linear motor reduce focus noise for fast, quiet focus without scaring them when shooting insects. Also in the mirror body 11 locations, carried out all-weather drip-proof seal, to prevent dust and rain into the comprehensive protective is still quite good, outdoor use do not have to worry about the lens erosion.

Lens structure, the use of 12 sets of 16 lens design, which includes an aspherical lens, a Super ED ultra-low dispersion lenses and three ED low-dispersion lenses. ED low-dispersion lenses can inhibit the chromatic aberration caused by high light, and Aspherical lenses can suppress imaging distortion and improve the overall sharpness and high resolution lens.Fuji XF series of lenses so far there is no low quality products, this is a macro lens, so the sharpness of the performance is very good, which In the back of proofs can also be seen.

Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 Mirco front mirror surface with fluorine coating, waterproof, not easy to stain the characteristics of the adhesion, to further improve the durability of the lens body length of 130mm, diameter 80mm, weight 750g, filter diameter 62mm, Aperture lens for the 9 leaves a circular aperture.

Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 macro lens has the equivalent of full-frame 120mm focal length, F2.8 aperture, the maximum 1: 1 magnification, the closest focusing distance of 0.25m. Below we learn from the lens sharpness, dark corner distortion and Background blur effect to test the three aspects of how this macro lens imaging effect, with Fuji X-E3 body shooting, with the real proofs, so that we understand more clearly the lens in the end is not worth buying.

Second, Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 lens sharpness evaluation

As a telephoto macro lens, the center of the lens and the sharpness of the lens is an intuitive reflection of the imaging quality of the lens, the following is obtained through the outdoor shooting results:

In contrast to the aperture of the stalls screenshots, you can see the center of the lens sharpness, the performance of the file aperture is very stable, and there is no significant difference, shrink to F5.6 aperture, the best performance, Quality is the best .Even if the full aperture will not be very blurred, sharpness is excellent, in the contraction to the F22 aperture, due to the relationship between diffraction sharpness will decline in the actual time is still much larger The product is better.

Edge sharpness relative to the center position there is a little bit of decline, but the overall sharpness performance is still very high, the same contraction to F5.6 aperture, sharpness and image quality is the best, full aperture Also performed well.

Third, Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 lens dark corner distortion evaluation

f/5.6	f/8.0

As a telephoto lens, Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 macro lens distortion control, done very good, basically picture distortion is difficult to see, but in the F2.8 aperture when the more obvious, shrink to F5 .6 aperture, the problem of vignetting completely eliminated.But we can solve the problem of vignetting through the body optimization and post-processing, in the daily photograph will not have too much influence, and sometimes take some small objects a little dark corner More beautiful, more sense of atmosphere.

Of course, the still life shooting is the strength of Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 macro lens, the detail of the stamens is very good, the main body is clear and sharp, the insects are the same, the bee's wings can be clearly seen. One of the benefits is that you can blur out unnecessary elements and highlight the parts you want to show off. Even the f / 2.8 aperture is perfect, and there are no problems with purple fringing Workmanship and very elegant materials.

In addition to the macro, the landscape shots are competent, the scene was very tasteful, the actual situation is very natural transition, the sharpness of the lens and the performance of the coke was very good, thanks to a Super ED ultra-low dispersion lenses and Three ED low-dispersion lenses, color suppression, improve the imaging sharpness and image quality, while the equivalent of 5 shutter optical image stabilization system blessing, even if the hand can take a clear picture.

Fifth, Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 lens summary

Overall, this Fuji XF series of single-camera second macro lens, compared to the previous XF 60mm F2.4 macro lens is much better, into more new technologies.Focal length longer, 1: 1 magnification, there are more advanced floating inner focus system, equivalent to 5 optical shutter optical image stabilization system, and also has all-weather drip-proof seal, etc., enough to reflect the sincerity of Fuji.

Finally talk about the price, Fuji XF 80mm F2.8 Mirco WR lens price of 7500 yuan, and with the Fuji X-E3 price similar, from the price point of view, but also the first macro lens positioning is very different. , This lens more for macro shooting needs more users, to provide excellent shooting quality while there are high prices, bulky problems. Presumably to buy its users have professional needs. Fuji will be released this year also With X-H1 flagship single power, plus medium format single-camera, Fuji is also taking the professional and high-end line in the future there will be a more complete system for professional users, perhaps in the near future you can see more Fuji professional Configuration launch market.
