Fuji Just got my 23mm F 1.4 lens

I must hold out for the 56 first...must...must....must :)

There were loaners of it on a Fujifilm event here in Toronto and i denied all loan requests...they must have thought i was a strange one but at least i didn't mutter, "my preciousssss" *lol*
 
Picked mine up yesterday. The build quality is the usual high standard expected from the Fuji stable but then I would not expect anything less.

I have not had much chance to play but here a few from my initial foray. I know I am going to enjoy this lens A LOT!

Nice shots.......my local camera store guy says mine comes in on Friday.

Already ordered a different hood.

So jealous haha. Looks beautiful and sharp!
I called every store I know in the Toronto region and none of them have received their shipments.
 
Very exciting - but alas I'm not in the ready position to buy...plus I don't have a Fuji X that takes different lenses... Someday, I hope.

Looking forward to many more fine examples and thanks to you guys who've posted thus far!
 
Nice photos!! The cityscape photo is awesome. A beauty!

On a slight tangent, when pixel peeping, the photos look awfully noisy. Or maybe I just have unrealistic expectations about the X-tran sensor.

These are 6400 (first two), 3200 and 5000 ISO, noise level is accordingly high.

Could be PP technique easily. Over-sharpening at high ISOs, too much "clarity" button, etc. gives that look.
 
Hi guys :) Thanks for the compliments and the analysis ;)
They were shot at high ISOs but you are all correct, I do tend to add grain to my shots and for the cityscape, clarity was bumped up quite high.
I don't mind the noise personally.

I'll post another one with less clarity/added grain to show the original sensor shot :)
 
As promised here's another version of the cityscape:

This one only had some slight shadows/highlights and contrast adjustments no added grain no clarity.
