If you follow FujiRumors, you’ll know that Fujifilm is preparing to launch the new Fujinon GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 lens.

You’ll also know it will cost just $500 if bundled with the upcoming Fujifilm GFX50SII.

Well, thanks to our sources, today we can tell you that the Fujinon GF35-70mm f/4.5-5.6 will have a collapsible lens. We know this design already from the Fujinon XC15-45mm F3.5-5.6.

The GFX Rumor Recap

Fujinon GF35-70mm 4.5-5.6 will Not Have an Aperture Ring

Sure, it will be very affordable. But I think that what I am going to tell you might be a deal breaker for some.

The upcoming Fujinon GF35-70mm f/4.5-5.6 will not have an aperture ring.

Honestly, when I received the first rumors about this lens, I was hesitant if I should wait for it and pass on the €500 rebate on the GF32-64mmf4.

Ultimately I went for the GF32-64mmF4 and especially after this rumor I am happy I did. I love aperture rings and I even sold my good old 27mmF2.8 for the new 27mmF2.8 R WR just to get this single feature.

And yet, I believe this lens fixes the true anomaly in the GF lens lineup, so I still believe it’s a very smart move by Fujifilm.

BREAKING: Fujifilm GFX50SMKII to Ship in September plus Rumored Specs/Price Recap

So how the heck am I going to share this one?

I mean, worldwide chip shortage, Fujifilm announcing delays for lots of gear and unable to deliver products they announced many months ago and what not.

So telling you when the Fujifilm GFX50SII will ship is a rumor rocksolid at the moment,  but at the same time don’t be mad at me when at the date I’ll give you know there will be like 3 Fujifilm GFX50SII shipping, and then yet another biblical waiting will begin for the rest of the cameras to ship.

With that disclaimer out of the way, here is the rumor:

We haven been informed, that the Fujifilm GFX50SMKII will start shipping in September.

We also confirm once again, the the announcement itself will not take place on August 27.
