Share

Fujifilm has officially released the new X mount roadmap.

No surprises, everything as rumored.

As we told you, there is no XF27mm F2.8 MK II in there. But that lens will definitely come along with the Fujifilm X-E4 in early 2021.

Down below the official press release:

Fujifilm unveils the latest development roadmap for interchangeable lenses for the X Series of mirrorless digital cameras

Adding two new lenses to create an extensive 37-lens lineup to cover versatile shooting styles and situations

TOKYO, October 15, 2020 — FUJIFILM Corporation (President: Kenji Sukeno) has unveiled the latest development roadmap for interchangeable lenses for the X Series of compact and lightweight mirrorless digital cameras, which offer outstanding image quality based on the company’s proprietary color reproduction technology. The latest roadmap shows the addition of two new lenses, i.e. a large-diameter wide angle prime lens and a telephoto zoom lens.

Since launching its first mirrorless digital camera in 2012, Fujifilm has actively added new products to expand the X Series range. At the same time, the lineup for XF interchangeable lenses, designed for the X Series, has been rapidly expanded. XF lenses’ superior descriptive performance and mobility have won the support of professional photographers and photo enthusiasts alike. Newly added to the roadmap are a large-diameter wide-angle prime lens and a telephoto zoom lens, establishing a 37-lens lineup covering extensive focal lengths from ultra-wide angle to ultra-telephoto.

(1) Large-diameter wide angle prime lens

This is a new addition to a group of large-diameter prime lenses, popular for their exceptional descriptive performance with the ability to produce beautiful bokeh. Its highly versatile 18mm focal length (equivalent to 27mm in the 35mm format) and large maximum aperture of F1.4 make it a perfect choice for snapshots and landscape photography.

(2) Telephoto zoom lens

This is a compact telephoto zoom lens, made possible with the compact and lightweight “X Mount” system*. It offers the focal length range of 70 – 300mm (equivalent to 105 – 450mm in the 35mm format) and maximum aperture of F4 – 5.6. Also equipped with the image stabilization function, the lens produces premium image quality in a wide range of photographic situations.

Today, Fujifilm announced the launch of the ultra-wide angle zoom “FUJINON Lens XF10-24mmF4 R OIS WR.” The versatile product lineup, complimented with the two new lenses added to the roadmap, will meet various needs in a diverse range of shooting situations and styles.
