Street, Documentary & Travel Photography — XF 23mm f/1.4 R LM WR (2022): The definitive street prime for Fujifilm — 35mm equivalent, f/1.4, and now weather sealed with faster AF.
Street, Portrait & Low-Light Work On Sony E-Mount — 35mm f/1.4 DG DN Art (2021): An outstanding 35mm f/1.4 at a price that makes Sony's native equivalent hard to justify — Sigma Art quality for much less.
