The well known lens review website Photozone reviewed the first Fuji X lens, the 60mm macro f/2.4: “The Fujinon XF 60mm f/2.4 R macro is the best of the three initial lenses for the X-mount.

And SLRgear tested the 18mm f/2.0 lens: “very good performance, even when used wide open, and excellent performance when stopped down just a little. If you’re an X-Pro 1 user, this is another lens that definitely deserves a place in your bag.

Fuji 35mm f/1.4 tested at SLRgear and Photoheadonline.

The 35mm lens got tested by SLRgear and Photoheadonline. Both highly recommend this lens:

SLRgear (Click here) tested the Fuji 35mm f/1.4 X lens: “Very good performance, even when used wide open, and excellent performance when stopped down just a little. If you’re an X-Pro 1 user, this lens definitely deserves a place in your bag.

Photoheadonline (Click here) compared the lens with the Zeiss 35mm f/2.0 lens: “The Fujinon however, is made so well that it is the winner of this test. It gets a High Value to Cost Ratio for its performance at a wide open aperture, as well as price, weight, compactness, and versatility. The Fujinon 35mm edges out the Zeiss 35mm lens in each of those categories, but by just a little.

New X PRO 1 tests at Camerguide, Cameralabs and Digitalrev (Kai video)

Digitalrev (Click here) posted that short Xpro1 vs OM-D E-M5 vs NEX7 comparison video I embedded here on top. Kai (the reviewer) pretty much loves the Fuji :)

Cameralabs posted the full X PRO 1 review: “you could say the X-Pro1 takes digital photography back to the basics. It concentrates on doing the important stuff really well – the foremost being excellent image quality – adds some truly innovative features and ignores the rest. For serious photographers that’s a very attractive philosophy and one that will win the X-Pro1 a lot of admirers.
