SIRUI Sniper 23mm F1.2 APSC Lens - Fujifilm X - Black

This lens is designed for Fujifilm X-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras.

The f/1.2 aperture lets in a significant amount of light, enabling shooting in low-light conditions and creating a very shallow depth of field for beautiful background blur (bokeh).

Yes, the lens features an STM motor for quiet autofocus and minimal focus breathing, making it well-suited for video.

On an APS-C camera with a Fujifilm X-mount, the 23mm focal length provides a field of view equivalent to approximately 35mm on a full-frame camera.

This lens does not have built-in image stabilization. Image stabilization capabilities will depend on the camera body it is mounted on.

Use a soft microfiber lens cloth. For tougher spots, use a specialized lens cleaning solution applied sparingly to the cloth.

The package typically includes the lens, front and rear lens caps, and a petal-shaped lens hood.

The lens has a 58mm filter thread size.

Ensure the camera is in autofocus mode. Check that the lens is securely mounted. Verify that Eye AF is enabled in the camera settings if you are trying to use it. Try manual focus to see if the lens mechanism is working.

Ensure you are shooting at an appropriate aperture; very wide apertures like f/1.2 have a very shallow depth of field. Check that the focus point is on your intended subject. Clean the lens elements, as dirt or smudges can degrade image quality.

While the STM motor is designed for quiet operation, ambient noise or specific shooting conditions might make it audible. Ensure your camera's microphone is not picking up excessive lens noise during video recording. Test in a quiet environment to assess normal operational sound.

Attach the included petal lens hood to block stray light. Avoid shooting directly into bright light sources if possible. Clean the front lens element.
