Review VerdictThe Fujinon XF 27mm f/2.8 R WR may be tiny, but it is still fairly mighty in terms of image quality. The broader center quality is very high at f/2.8, and the corners/borders are easily good ... if it wasn't for some field curvature that can soften the corners quite a bit. Stopping down "catches up" with the field curve, and the quality is actually quite impressive at f/5.6. As with most pancake lenses, vignetting is an issue at maximum aperture, but autocorrection does a good job hiding most of it. Lateral CAs are very low, and image distortions are generally nothing to worry about. The build quality is very high thanks to quality materials and weather sealing. However, the DC AF motor is dated. If you are into pancake lenses with a "normal" field-of-view, the Fujinon XF 27mm f/2.8 R WR remains an attractive option.
