Fujifilm XF 56mm f/1.2 R WR

The XF 56mm f/1.2 R WR is Fuji's signature portrait prime, delivering an 85mm-equivalent f/1.2 with new weather sealing at 445g, earning a strong 80 in the pro tier. The shallow depth-of-field look is one no other sub-$1k XF prime matches. Budget portrait shooters can save with the Viltrox 56mm f/1.7, and its portrait-tuned focus throw isn't ideal for fast video AF.
