A superb wide-angle prime lens from Fuji

For capturing the ultra-wide and seemingly un-capturable, is this Fujifilm 14mm f2.8 R lens. A mate for the Fuji X-series range of cameras, the 14mm will stun with its 21mm equivalent focal range, its bright f2.8 maximum aperture and it's premium optical construction which helps to hold distortion issues that plague lesser lenses, comfortably at bay. Joining the X-series clan in a match seemingly made in heaven, the 14mm f2.8 is suited to the landscape, travel or street shooter that has already flocked to this classic range of interchangeable lens cameras.

With an f2.8 aperture, it is possible to shoot consistently at faster shutter speeds, therefore negating the need for tripods and taking blur-free images more regularly. This lack of need for further support ensures you don't betray the compact nature that attracted you to this camera system in the first place. Optically brilliant, this sleek and stylish lens achieves high imaging resolution to the edges of the frame, with minimal signs of the light fall-off and distortion that is often a drawback if such wide-angle lenses. Any areas of your pictures that are thrown out of focus by the large aperture opening will be of the most beautiful in appearance, thanks to the moulded aperture diaphragm blades.
