This is what I consider to be THE most underrated lens in Fujifilm’s X Series lineup – the XF 60mm f2.4 R Macro lens. One of the original three lenses to be released, I’ve heard a lot of people say that it’s ‘slow’ and hunts for focus a lot. I have continued to update my 60 over the last few years with the latest firmware updates and I think it’s a stunning lens! Weighing in at just 215 grams, how could you keep it out of your kit bag? Below are some of my sample images taken with the Fujifilm 60mm f2.4 R Macro lens.
