One limit of this table: it lists only Fujifilm X lenses that mount natively on the Fujifilm X-Pro3 — lenses fitted through an adapter are not included here. See which mounts adapt to which.

What these focal lengths actually give you on the Fujifilm X-Pro3

The Fujifilm X-Pro3 has an APS-C sensor, so it sees a 1.5× crop of what each lens projects. Every focal length below therefore frames 1.5× tighter than its marked number. That works against you here: the widest option, the Fujifilm XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR, frames like 12mm — not as wide as its marked number suggests. For a genuinely wide view on the Fujifilm X-Pro3 you want a lens marked around 16mm or shorter.

Effective focal lengths are the marked focal length × the 1.5× sensor crop factor — the field of view, not a change in the lens itself. Aperture and depth of field are unaffected.
