Giving Love to Rarely Used Lens: The Fujinon 90mm f2 / by tomas fiferna

As a photographer, I’ve accumulated a lot of lenses, which means that some get very little use. The Fujinon 90mm f2 is an excellent lens, but is difficult to use when there isn’t a lot of room. Therefore, it finds itself attached to my camera very rarely.

Recently, I was taking stock of my photography gear and felt bad for this lonely lens, so I paired it with my Fuji X-T3 and went outside with my two daughters to document their joy as they frolicked in the snow. Due to its focal length I had to keep my distance to capture my kiddos as they navigated the snowy surroundings of our residence.

To my delight, I found that using this focal length for shots other than portraits (this lens is well known for portraiture) offered a different perspective and I was very pleased with the results. These pictures produced a slightly different aspect than those that I typically take. Below are some highlights of our snowy “shoot”. Enjoy!
