Expert opinion

I recently had the pleasure of testing out the Meike MK 35mm F1.4 Large Aperture Wide Angle Lens for my Fujifilm X series mirrorless camera. I had heard great things about this lens and was excited to put it through its paces. I was not disappointed.

This lens features a fixed focal length of 35mm, with a maximum aperture of 1.4 16, allowing for smooth bokeh and close up/portrait photo photography. It is a wide angle lens, which is perfect for landscape, product, and portrait photography. The lens structure consists of five groups and eight elements. It also has an impressive value for money rating of 9.9, making it an excellent choice for budget conscious photographers.

In terms of performance, I found this lens to be more than satisfactory in both landscape and portrait photography scenarios. Its wide field of view allows for beautiful landscapes without sacrificing detail or clarity in the image. On top of that, the fast aperture means that you can get great depth of field shots even in low light situations such as night photography or indoor shoots. The auto focus is not quite up to par with more expensive lenses but with a bit of practice you can get good results with this one as well.

In terms of build quality, I was very impressed by the materials used in this lens. It feels very solid and sturdy in the hand and should have no trouble standing up to regular use and abuse on shoots or travel trips. The package dimensions are 3.8 x 3.7 x 3.1 inches and it weighs 10.4 ounces small enough to fit into any camera bag but still heavy enough to feel like it is built to last.

Overall, I highly recommend the Meike MK 35mm F1.4 Large Aperture Wide Angle Lens for anyone looking for a feature packed yet affordable lens for their Fujifilm X series mirrorless cameras. It offers excellent value for money with its combination of features and build quality at its price point, making it ideal for both amateur and professional photographers alike who are looking for an affordable yet reliable option to add to their arsenal of lenses without breaking the bank!
