Fujinon GF 35-70mmF4.5-5.6 Coming Without Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)

It’s small, it’s affordable, probably optically on a high level, but all this goodness comes with the price of some compromises, which are:

• it won’t have an aperture ring
• it won’t have optical image stabilization

The lack of OIS is probably not a big of a deal.

Why?

Because the most affordable Fujifilm GFX camera, that is still not on the market, but will soon come, the Fujifilm GFX50SII, will have IBIS inside, hence guarantee for 5 axis image stabilization.

It’s up to you now to make the decision if to go with the Fujinon GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 or with the strongly rebated GF32-64mmF4 (until August 22)

I personally went for the rebated GF32-64, mainly for the aperture ring. But surely the size of that GF35-70mm is tempting too.
