Zeiss Touit 32mm f/1.8 for Fuji Field Tests

Here are some additional field test images from the Zeiss Touit 32mm f/1.8.

We used the lens (loaner from Zeiss) with our X-T1.

Some initial thoughts:

  • Very good sharpness as we expected
  • A focal length of 32mm (48mm at 35mm equivalent) proves to be good for general street photography (at least for us).
  • AF not really fast, needs good edges to lock on
  • f/1.8 is not ultra fast but ok for us
  • If this lens would have image stabilization or the X-T1 IBIS (in body image stabilization) the lens would be even more useful
  • The quality seems to be in the same ballpark as the Fuji 35mm f/1.4
  • We do not like the lens cap of the Fuji 35mm because the front protection cap always falls off. The solution on the Touit is more usable.
