A holiday finally convinced me to pick up the XF 27 f2.8 WR as my new small and do it all lens of choice. Is it just a holiday snap shooter, or can it keep up with the big pricey lenses on my adventures as well?

Ten years. That’s how long it took to make this picture happen. The entirety of my photographic journey, several jobs, relationships, houses, and my kids entire life all fit inside of that time frame. Sometimes a bit of dedication is required!

I’ve used the Fuji XF 23mm f2 WR lens for the last three years and it’s become my most used lens. With the new XF 23mm F1.4 LM WR finally about to start shipping, it’s time for a review and reflection on it while I decide whether an upgrade is worth it for me.
