Alongside the new GFX100 II medium format mirrorless camera, Fujifilm has announced three new GF lenses.
GF 55mm f/1.7 R WR Lens
The GF 55mm f/1.7 R WR offers a wide aperture in tandem with a 44mm equivalent focal length making it a great option for applications like portraiture and street photography. Its features include:
- 14 lens elements in 10 groups
- Aspherical and extra-low dispersion (ED) elements for improved image quality
- 11 diaphragm blades for smoother bokeh
- Advanced lens blade design for control of chromatic and spherical aberrations
- Direct current (DC) motor and GMR sensor for fast and quiet autofocus
- Weather-resistant design
- Weight: 1.72 lbs (780 g)
- Length: 3.9 inches (99.3 mm)
Expect the GF 55mm f/1.7 R WR to be available early this fall for $2,299.95.
GF 30mm f/5.6 T/S and GF 110mm f/5.6 T/S Macro Lenses
Offering capabilities sure to be appreciated by architecture, landscape, product, and macro photographers, the GF 30mm f/5.6 T/S and GF 110mm f/5.6 T/S Macro lenses bring a lot more capabilities to the GF lineup.
GF 30mm f/5.6 T/S
- 16 lens elements in 11 groups
- Three aspherical elements, two extra-low dispersion (ED) elements and one Super ED element
