Fujifilm refreshed the XF 56mm in 2022 and the photography community received the update with the mild suspicion that greets any revision of a beloved original. The original 56mm f/1.2 R was a cult lens — optically flawed in the right ways, character-rich, with a rendering style that felt closer to medium format than its APS-C designation suggested. The WR version had a lot to live up to. It more than earns its successor status.
