You meant the XF 23mm F2?

That's good to know. There are a lot of discussion on the internet about how soft it is wide open or focused close.

Complaints about softness mainly started when the lens just released. At that time most cameras did not yet support it (firmware wise) AND people complained 99% of the case about some unsharp/soft results at extremely close up. Please keep in mind that this is not a macrolens.
