Hey guy welcome to my channel! My name is Tung but you guys know me as Iamtongue. I've been using Fujifilm cameras and lenses for some time now and I would like to share what I know with you guys. I've used their gear to do travel photography, portraits, products, headshots, lifestyle just almost every general settings you can think of. I love photography, and because of this youtube channel I've been dabbling in a bit of video and so far I am enjoying the process. This channel is to talk about photography, gear related things.

Tongue in my opinion your channel quality is easily a 100K followers channel, so you will hit 10K in no time! Thanks for the great quality content bro, i love it! I wish I could afford this lens also in the future, now I have only 23mm 1.4 with my X-T2. :)

Good review. I cover the wide end with the 16-55, or the 14mm 2.8., which seldom gets mentioned on yt videos (though i don't know how it compares to these). I used it for interiors more than the 16mm on the zoom, with good results (yes, mostly cramped , small apartments in France), plus the couple of mm in difference allows for more margins for correcting perspective. I wish fuji would make a TS lens... (Also IIRC the 14 is very good at IR photography. Don't know how these new ones fare in that area.)

@Iamtongue 3 жыл бұрын

I use to own the 14mm. But ultimately sold it because of I don't use it often. But during my time with it, I had alot of fun with it!

Nicely done brother I think that Fuji should have done another version of the 16mm 1.4. Other than that this lens seems solid like you said 28mm is an all time fav thanks to the Q but I still have some love for the Fuji 16mm 1.4. Great video brother

I love your reviews, tongue. I also love the 18mm focal length for Fuji (I have the older janky one). HOWEVER, I have moved over to medium format film now and I can't justify spending that much on only 1 lens for a digital system. For the same price I could get a mint Mamiya 645 pro with lens imported from japan.

@Iamtongue 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks Kris! Nice! My buddies have been telling me to try film photography ... I was looking into that mamiya 645 6 months ago... How are you enjoying that? Probably better than the 18mm f1.4 IMO haha 😜

@kriseric1 3 жыл бұрын

@@Iamtongue Man, your friends are right about film. In terms of image quality, the 6x4.5 format negative scans to about 24 megapixel resolution. But the colors and character from the old analog lenses are 👌 *chef's kiss*

@KevinMaschke1 3 жыл бұрын

I bought this lens 2-3 weeks ago :D I didn't have the 16 and had never used it. I had the 23 f1.4 but ended up selling it (due to AF noise and AF speed, because image quality was magic). I'm really liking the 18. I like the focal lenght, I like the AF, the crispiness, everything. :D

So damn crispy eh! The 18mm f1.4 is nice like that 🤭😊

@awiwiedw 2 жыл бұрын

just saw your vids in 2022, for 16mm owner, I don't think this is worth the money to upgrade. But for those who hasn't owned wide angle fujinon, this is really tempting.

@anthonystonehouse 3 жыл бұрын

I agree with your conclusions after adding the 18mm f1.4 and comparing it to my 16mm f1.4. As soon as I picked it up I noticed the loose rings, and it’s definitely super sharp at f1.4. After more testing I found the focal length is different to the 16mm, with less distortion on the edges. However, I found it basically replaced my need for the 16mm so I sold the 16mm. So yes, it’s kinda the new 16mm but with less character/optical flaws!

@SquirrelHybrid 3 жыл бұрын

I'm tempted to get this lens because it's much sharper than the 16 and has better corrections, but the 16 has that close focus advantage. If I could justify owning both, then I'd use the 16 for extreme close focusing and the 18 for everything else, but for now I'm keeping the 16. :) Also, FujiRumors says that Fuji's upcoming X-H2 will do 8k video, so we might expect over 40mp if it's true.

40 megapixels for a video centric camera? 😝 Ohh man

16mm f1.4 rocks! I'm going to sell mine to cop this one for the future proofing. I want the XH2 to have 4k120 and be a beast in low light but if it has 40 megapixels I don't think it's gonna be that good. 🥴

Has your opinion changed on the X100v vs 18mm f1.4 for travel and street?

@Iamtongue 3 жыл бұрын

I like both. It's hard to decide on just one man...but if I were choose I would choose the x100v and live with that focal length. The x100v has a smaller footprint. And that updated 23mn f2 lens is something special. 🤭
