Best portrait lens for the fujifilm x t2?

For portraits on the X-T2, I'd look at lenses in the 50 to 85mm full-frame range. On this APS-C body that means roughly 33 to 57mm, or a longer zoom if you want more reach.

• Fujifilm XF 33mm f/1.4 R LM WR is my first pick. It frames like 50mm on full frame and is fast enough for soft backgrounds and low light.
• Fujifilm XF 35mm f/1.4 R is a little wider, like 52mm on full frame, so it suits environmental portraits where you want more of the scene.
• Zeiss Touit 32mm f/1.8 is a good alternative if you like a slightly tighter, 48mm-equivalent view.
• Fujifilm XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR is the choice if you want to shoot from further back, at 75 to 210mm equivalent.

Before you spend on glass, read portraits. Window light will do more for your pictures than any lens. For a broader starting point, see your first lenses.
