Overview

One of the most underrated of Fujifilm's magnificent lens is probably its smallest. The original Fujifilm XF27mm F2.8 pancake lens has proven popular with Fuji fans for its stellar optics and compact design. Fujifilm has now announced the launch of an updated version of the very same lens in the XF27mm F2.8 WR. While initial glances may deceive you into believing that it is the same lens, there are some key differences.

Fujifilm XF 27mm F2.8 R WR Lens

One of the most underrated of Fujifilm's magnificent lens is probably its smallest. The original Fujifilm XF27mm F2.8 pancake lens has proven popular with Fuji fans for its stellar optics and compact design. Fujifilm has now announced the launch of an updated version of the very same lens in the XF27mm F2.8 WR. While initial glances may deceive you into believing that it is the same lens, there are some key differences.

 

Enhanced For Outstanding Performance

 

First and foremost, the XF27mm F2.8 WR is Weather Resistant and when paired with a WR Fuji body, provides a complete kit fit for any conditions. While the original version maintained a flat, pancake-like build, it did not possess an aperture ring. It was sorely missed as was a simple lens hood. The new version now includes both a lens hood and an aperture ring with markings between Auto, F2.8 and F16.

The lens construction is solid with seven internal elements in five groups, including one aspherical element. The 27mm focal distance converts to 41mm in 35mm full-frame equivalent. What is most notable about this tiny optical gem is that it has a diameter of 62mm and a depth of only 23mm. Plus, at 84 grams, you can drop this on the new Fujifilm X-E5 and still have a complete kit at under 500g!
