A Review of the Fujifilm GF 30mm f/3.5 R WR Lens

Medium format lenses are rarely cheap or portable, but the Fujifilm GF 30mm f/3.5 R WR is both reasonably priced and rather svelte, at least as these larger optics normally go. Can it still keep up with the demands of a modern medium format camera sensor. This excellent video review takes a look at the sort of image quality you can expect from it. 

Coming to you from Keith Cooper, this great video review takes a look at the Fujifilm GF 30mm f/3.5 R WR lens. Weighing in at just a little over a pound, the 30mm f/3.5 is a relatively portable lens, at least by medium format standards, making it a nice option for those who want to work on the go a bit more. It still comes with a good range of features, including:

  • Two extra-low dispersion elements for reduced chromatic aberrations and increased clarity
  • Two aspherical elements for reduced distortion and improved sharpness
  • Small focusing group for quick autofocus performance
  • Physical aperture ring and C (Command) position for camera-based control
  • Dust- and weather-sealed construction for working in inclement conditions
  • Rounded nine-blade diaphragm for smoother bokeh

Check out the video above for Cooper's full thoughts on the lens.
