Original price $299.95 before cash back from Fujifilm Australia.
For Cashback: https://fujifilm.cashback.com.au/cashreward.
I bought 2 lens last years which were both eligible for cash back, took about approximately 1 week to get my $200 back. However, the second lens took around a month to receive my $200 as it was near the end of the cashback period.

Thankfully I missed the previous post about Fujifilm cash back that was posted a month back. The XF27MM's were $149.95 after cash back back then.

Here are some reviews:

http://www.kenrockwell.com/fuji/x-mount-lenses/27mm-f28.htm
I'm still a beginner in photography, but I love buying cheap lens haha. I got told by my friend that this isn't a great lens, but for $100, I don't think I'll be complaining even if its bad.

Can take price down further if you are planning to travel overseas in the next 60 days —-> TRS (Tourist Refund Scheme), however bear in mind eligible claims must be over $300. Add in another $1 iPhone stand to make it $300. Also add coupon code "Shipfree100" for free shipping. (Thanks Orpheus).

    if we buy from their ebay store, would be eligible for cashback?

    • Zackyis on 11/11/2015 - 22:02

      Yup, its fine

  • Takius on 11/11/2015 - 22:05

    Nice deal! I'm actually buying the 35mm 1.4 tomorrow, and really don't need a 27mm. But $100…so cheap for fuji glass. Decisions, decisions.

    • jinxsphinx on 11/11/2015 - 23:04

      How much did you get the 35mm for?

      • Takius on 11/11/2015 - 23:30

        Well I haven't bought it yet, but it's $595 at digidirect, $395 after cashback.

          made me login for the first time to tell you that you can get it for cheaper at camerapro.com.au for $379.

        • Takius on 12/11/2015 - 00:18

          Wow, thank you! I mustn't have searched hard enough.

        • squaredonut on 12/11/2015 - 05:02

          @Takius: you can probably get digi to price match, generally if it's not a big difference, they're quite happy to

  • krkrkr on 11/11/2015 - 22:07

    Use coupon code 'Shipfree100' to get free shipping (save $9.95). That way you dont have to drive there for pick up and deal with the annoying Teds staff trying to upsell you expensive warranties and overpriced filters.

    • Sycotek on 11/11/2015 - 22:15

      crap i panicked as i missed out last time and ordered paying for shipping :/

    Can take price down further if you are planning to travel overseas in the next 60 days —-> TRS (Tourist Refund Scheme), however bear in mind eligible claims must be over $300. If you are going to get it delivered then no problem, final cost will be around $282.

    Actually that is incorrect. Shipping is not included for TRS. So the item alone at $299.95 is not enough for you to get the Tax back because you are off by 5 cents. Include this iphone stand as well in your order for an additional $1. This will put you over $300. Take this and the lens with you to the airport. Show it at the TRS counter and after they process it, you can throw the iphone stand in the bin.

    • engineeringprof on 11/11/2015 - 22:48

      This is good advice, don't forget to bring the extra item to the airport

      • Macgyver on 12/11/2015 - 01:03

        I bought this last time it was $349.95 - $50 coupon making it $299.95, I suppose because of the $50- coupon I can't claim TRS?

        • [Deactivated] on 12/11/2015 - 01:22

          Correct. The $50 was deducted internally through Ted's, but your total is $299.95. However you can still claim TRS, because multiple invoices from the same business is fine (as long as they all total $300 or more and were bought within 60 days of your flight). So you just have to buy something else. Make sure to get a tax invoice, not normal receipt.

        • Macgyver on 12/11/2015 - 01:25

          Wait, so I can just buy like a $2 dollar lens cloth or I need to get something that is $300?

          That sounds great if it is the former.

        • [Deactivated] on 12/11/2015 - 01:37

          @Macgyver: It's $300 or more total. Since you already have a $299.95 lens, you need to buy something minimum 5 cents. So yes, if you can find a $2 lens cloth that will do.

        • Macgyver on 12/11/2015 - 14:50

          That's good but I just checked and I think I'm late by a few days. I got the lens on the 3rd of Oct and leave on 7 of Dec, so basically 8 days too long of 60 days.

    Wow $100 for a prime! that's a steal!

  • s26f84 on 11/11/2015 - 22:38

    Lame question: can it be used with Nikon d3300?

    • aymoski on 11/11/2015 - 22:52

      with an adapter, technically yes but it cannot be mounted straight onto a nikon as it is the fuji xf mount

      • [Deactivated] on 11/11/2015 - 23:01
        +8

        with an adapter, technically yes

        Actually no, not even with an adapter. It's physically not possible. The Nikon F-Mount flange distance is 46.5mm and the Fuji X-Mount flange distance is 17.7mm. That means to mount it on a Nikon body it would have to sit inside the camera body in the space where the mirror is currently occupying.

          i stand corrected. hiding my comment to make Orpheus' comment more visible.

        • UncommonName on 12/11/2015 - 00:21

          This flange distance of Fuji means you can use a Nikon lens on a Fuji body, adapter will fill the distance in-between.

      I won't recommend it since AF might not work.
      Better get second hand AF-S 35mm f1.8 or AF-S 50mm f1.8 for around $100-$150 from ebay/gumtree.
      or, if you want something with wider angle and zoom, try tamron/sigma 17-50 f2.8 for around $200

      • br3ttles on 12/11/2015 - 00:47

        +1 for the 35mm f1.8

        Brilliant lens for the price. I've owned it twice due to my lack of regard for personal possessions.

  • poogene2001 on 11/11/2015 - 22:59

    Good price. Now I need to sell something out of my camera collection to keep the boss happy…. hmmm…

  • ow on 12/11/2015 - 10:12

    Can i claim GST if i buy from ebay store $299.95 plus the $9.95 delivery charge or do i have to order and combine with a $1 item???

  • Danthemanz on 12/11/2015 - 10:27

    Dam thats good.
    Is it strange that im thinking of getting it even though i dont have a X mount camera? lol
    I love my X100t and id love to pickup an XT10/1 one day, i love the 40mm equiv length.

    • simulacrum on 12/11/2015 - 10:29

      Nope, i think it makes sense. Commit to a platform then you can keep your glass as you upgrade bodies… And fuji make some very good glass.

      • Danthemanz on 12/11/2015 - 13:04

        Haha, yeah but I have $4-5k committed to Canon full frame already…

    Received a mail from TED
    Hi there,

    Thank you for your order with Ted’s Camera stores.

    There was a pricing error on our website in which the Fuji 27mm F2.8 lens was displayed for $299.95 instead of $399.95.
    This error has now been amended.
    We have decided to honour any orders that have been placed at this price, but due to an overwhelming amount of orders there will be a delay with dispatch.

    We have ordered more stock this morning to fulfil these orders, but have been advised by Fuji that we will have to wait around 2-3 weeks for stock to arrive.

    If you do not wish to wait this long for your order to be dispatched please call us on 1300 768 833 and we can organise to cancel and refund your order in full.

    • simulacrum on 12/11/2015 - 11:12

  • ow on 12/11/2015 - 10:56

    Well good i had my ordered placed. Bad i might not claim the GST going overseas in 2 weeks

  • annexe on 12/11/2015 - 11:54

    Would I be able to put this onto my olympus micro four thirds?

    • Takius on 12/11/2015 - 12:57

      No, these are for the fuji x-series cameras. There may be an adapter for it but I doubt it. Also there is no aperture ring on the lens itself, it is controlled electronically.

      • annexe on 12/11/2015 - 13:27

        Thanks Takius! Just had some read of the sensor different on the fuji v olympus. seems they are quite different in size… so I'll have to wait bit more on olympus sales :D

        • Duff5000 on 12/11/2015 - 13:45
