Frequently Asked Questions - GF23mmF4 R LM WR FUJIFILM

Which cameras are compatible with the GF23mmF4 R LM WR lens?

This lens is designed exclusively for Fujifilm G-mount cameras (GFX series). It is not compatible with X-mount cameras.

How to install the lens hood?

Align the hood attachment mark with the one on the lens, then turn clockwise until it clicks. To remove, press the unlock button while turning counterclockwise.

What do the C and A positions on the aperture ring mean?

The C position allows adjusting the aperture via a camera dial. The A position activates automatic mode where the camera selects the aperture. To switch from C/A to a manual value, press the unlock button.

How to clean the lens?

Use a blower to remove dust, then a soft cloth slightly dampened with optical cleaner. Wipe in circles from the center outward. Never use solvents like benzene.

Is the lens weather resistant?

Yes, it is designed to be dust and splash resistant. The mount has a replaceable sealing ring. However, avoid complete immersion.

Why do I hear a noise and feel vibration when turning off?

This phenomenon is normal due to the linear motor. When the camera is turned off, the magnets separate, producing a slight noise and vibration. It does not affect image quality.

What is the minimum focusing distance?

The minimum distance is 38 cm from the focal plane (sensor). This allows photographing relatively close subjects with a wide-angle lens.

Can I use filters on this lens?

Yes, the filter diameter is 82 mm. You can attach UV, polarizing, ND filters, etc. Ensure they do not obstruct the lens hood.

How to store the lens when not in use?

Replace the front and rear caps. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and chemicals (naphthalene). Use the supplied soft case.

What should I do if the lens electrical contacts are dirty?

Gently clean the contacts with a dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid any solvent. Dirt can disrupt communication between the lens and camera body.
