7Artisans A009B-X 25mm
The f/0.95 maximum aperture and three low-dispersion elements provide strong low-light performance and color accuracy for APS-C Fujifilm X cameras at a 37.5mm equivalent focal length. A 13-blade diaphragm creates pleasing bokeh, while the 9.8-inch close focus distance adds macro versatility to the manual focus design. Best suited for macro and portrait shooters who prioritize depth of field control, it is less ideal for travel due to its 587g weight.
