If this 1,200×900 pixel crop is about 3" (7.5cm) wide on your phone, then the complete image printed at this same extreme magnification would be about 11 × 16" (0.9 × 1.3 feet or 25 × 40 cm). Shooting wide open, the XF 27mm has solid sharpness through about 80 percent of the frame. The corners and edges are slightly softer. Corners sharpen up around f4.5. While sharpness is relatively good through the image, it pales in comparison to the corner-to-corner sharpness that I’ve seen from high-priced Sony GM and Nikkor Z lenses lately. However, in real-world shooting, I thought the lens had a good balance between sharp subjects and being so sharp that you see every pore and imperfection. Lens Character

Get this lens to add-on to a Fuji X-mount camera, but if your plan is to get a tiny walk-around lens, get an X100T instead of this lens. Today, computers are at every corner. Design software too.

While this lens has no Optical Image Stabilization, some cameras like the X-S10 have built-in sensor-shift Image Stabilization (IS, VR (Vibration Reduction) or Steady Shot), which works really well with this lens. So you have to be particularly creative to make this FOV exciting and striking. It is much easier to take compelling images with a wide-angle or a telephoto lens because it changes the perception of reality compared to what our eye allows us to see. Distortion is invisible as shot as JPGs on my Fuji X-T1, which for all I know is correcting it automatically.

The sweet spot is at F5.6, where the level of sharpness peaks. For this reason, I use the zone focusing at this aperture in the manual. Even under the most devious conditions I could devise, all I got was one dim purple blob as seen here.
