Re: Weird glow in fujinon 23mm 1.4 at wide open

Are you using face or eye detect?

Almost looks like focus might be on the right eye putting the front part of the face slightly out of focus.

Try just using single point AF for your tests while using mechanical shutter for optimal bokeh and try a faster shutter speed like 1/500 just to eliminate any chance of subject movement or shutter shock.

I've had this lens and was always pretty impressive in terms of sharpness and bokeh even at 1.4.

I have the 23 F2 now and it certainly lacks some of the special rendering and pop of the 23 1.4.
