You're so right about this trinity of fuji lenses. I absolutely love this 18mm. I've found that it's really hard to take it off my camera ever since I got it last year. Really enjoy your positive energy and the magic in your videos. Please keep them coming and very happy 2023!
Thank you so much! And happy new year! Aww i’m so glad to read that you feel the same, the whole collection is brilliant! The 18mm was so fun to use, it’s a great lens! I’m the same with my 23mm, it hardly comes off my camera too 🙃 well I appreciate your kind words of positivity too! Thank you very much ☺️✌🏻
Finally the TH-cam algorithm brought me to you! I am so happy and grateful for this coincidience. Your video style is so awesome and refreshing :) now I will spend the evening checking out your videos. Stay awesome! You rock
Thank you so much for your kind words, I really appreciate it. My reviews come from my heart, passion and an honest place so this comment is lovely to read. I hope you enjoy the other videos and you rock too 🙃✌🏻
Love your reviews and love love your photos. So beautiful and creative. Basic question, but looking at upgrading to a X-T50 and a new 18mm 1.4 as per your wonderful review. Have you tested these 2 together at all and can you manually change the aperture whilst using autofocus on the camera? For quick travel photography. Thanks! Love your work.
Hi Victoria. Happy New Year to you. 🎉 Great Video as usual, just a quick question which of the 3 primes you mention would you recommend for portrait, holiday/ landscapes and close ups?
Hello and happy new year! Thank you very much! I personally love and own the 23mm - if money was no object I would own all three but unfortunately it’s not! I think the 18mm was a bit wide at times for all landscapes, and the 33mm would make my 56mm redundant, so I happily settled with the 23mm - which I took only holiday all around The Alps and it did fantastic for everything 🙃
@@wildandfreevictoria thank you very much for your input Victoria, I am on the fence between these 2 lenses and can only afford 1 (for now). Wishing you lots of success with your channel and life adventures across the globe!
I can understand that! I would have the trio of the 33mm, 23mm and 18mm if I could afford it. Although I am tempted to trade in one lens to get the 18mm. What is your plan for the lens if you got one? And thank you so much for your encouragement and kind words 🙃🙏🏻
@@wildandfreevictoria Ok that one I can testify to! And it is sooo good! Its not a fast focus good enought for running horses or something, but it is so sharp and such a nice look!
This is such a difficult choice as they are both beautiful! But for me it has to be the 23mm, I use is ALL the time, landscape, vlogging, portrait, close up work, everything. It is a fantastic lens 🙃
Hello From Monterrey Mexico!! guess what!?? I Finally bought my Camera!!!! 🥹🥹🙌🙌 A Fuji xt30ii….Is my first camera ever!!!. I Can’t wait to have it in my hands and start shooting. Hope you are well!! Best!

Nice review. I am amazed how close it can focus.
Thank you! And yes I know, it’s the crop sensors, they are fantastic for that!
