Fujifilm announces the launch of its FUJINON XF23mm F2.8 R WR (XF23mmF2.8 R WR) lens on June 12th 2025. Designed with portability in mind, the new Fujinon XF23mm F2.8 R WR was developed to be thin and unobtrusive while delivering powerful resolution and autofocus (AF) performance.

Attached to the Fujifilm X-E5.

“The first word that comes to mind when thinking of XF23mm F2.8 R WR is ‘versatility’,” said Victor Ha, vice president, Electronic Imaging and Optical Devices Divisions, FUJIFILM North America Corporation. “The lens is adaptable to handle standard, wide-angle, close-up image making with ease, while at the same time offering an ultra-compact form factor and user-friendly functionality. From street photography and travel/landscape, where the big picture tells the story, all the way to tabletop photography, where close up, intricate details are critical, XF23mmF2.8 R WR is the ideal everyday carry, designed to work with you on the move.”

FUJINON XF23mm F2.8 R WR Main Features:

Ultra-compact and lightweight design with high resolution performance

The XF23mmF2.8 R WR is designed to deliver high resolution performance compatible with the FUJIFILM X Series’ approximately 40.2 megapixel X-Trans™ CMOS 5 HR sensor.

  • By adopting 8-elements in 6 groups, including two aspherical lenses, XF23mmF2.8 R WR minimizes aberrations from the center to the periphery.

The lens has been made optically compact through Fujifilm’s latest lens development which reduces size by increasing the number of metal components to make parts thinner while maintaining durability.

The XF23mm F2.8 R WR features a focal length of 23mm (equivalent to 35mm in 35mm format), an overall length of only 23mm and a weight of approximately 90g (3 ounces). The lens’s 11-blade aperture diaphragm also delivers smooth, circular bokeh for excellent subject separation, most notably at wider apertures.

Close-up photography and high-precision, high-speed autofocus (AF)

The XF23mm F2.8 R WR additionally excels at close-ups, down to the minimum object distance of 20 cm (7.9 inches) from the sensor.

The lens uses a full-group focusing system, which suppresses aberration variation depending on the focus position, enabling high image quality photography even at close range.

A powerful direct-current motor is integrated into the lens to achieve high-speed AF.

Stylish yet durable user-friendly design

  • Knurling at the base of the lens allows for a secure grip when changing lenses.
  • The manual focus (MF) ring is equipped with high frequency position detection for high precision manual focus with minimum rotation angle.
  • A fixed spacer between the manual focus and aperture rings makes for easier adjustment of either setting when composing through the viewfinder.
  • With 9 sealing points, the lens is dust and moisture resistant to temperatures as low as -10 degrees Celsius (14 degrees Fahrenheit) and can be used safely in light rain, cold, or dusty environments.

The FUJINON XF23mm F2.8 R WR lens will be available late 2025 at a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price of $499.95 US Dollars.
