Viltrox AF 25mm F1.7 Air XF

25mm f/1.7

Short answer

The Viltrox AF 25mm F1.7 Air XF is a standard prime for the Fujifilm X mount. It covers 25 mm, which frames like 38mm on a 35mm camera, and opens to f/1.7. Autofocus is built in.

It mounts on all 34 X mount cameras in the catalog, among them the X-T5, X-T50, X-E5, X-M5, and X-T30 III. Fixed-lens models such as the X100 series are out by definition.

The same category holds 30 other X mount lenses. Among them, the fastest is the Voigtlander Nokton 35mm F0.9 at f/0.9.
