XF 90mmF2 WR: “A Royal Deluxe Portrait Lens that beats all previous XF lenses!”: Review and samples of Jonas Rask

Share

photo forum_zps6m0vx6h2.jpg

FXF Member Toon triggered off a hot discussion at the new FXF – 56mm(APD) or 90mm for potraits?

_ _ _

Is the XF 90mmF2 WR Fuji’s Best Lens in terms of IQ? I had this impression reading the review and especially looking at the tons of samples in Rico’s XF 90mmF2 WR First Look.

Now also jonasraskphotography confirms that it is the best XF lens in terms of IQ. And the inevitable question now is: XF 56mm (APD) or XF 90mm for portraits? A hot debate aroused on the FXF.

Here is an excerpt of what Jonas Rask thinks about it in his First Look:

“The XF 90mm f/2 is the highest performing lens I have ever mounted onto my X-series cameras. It beats all previous XF series lenses in just about every image quality aspect. It’s the royal deluxe model of a portrait lens, and if you are a portrait or fashion photographer using the Fujifilm X-series you cannot pass this lens up. For the system it is quite large, but it is what it is. I’m not even a portrait photographer, but I definitely will add this lens to my arsenal. It really is an amazing lens!

Or is the 24MP X-PRO2 all you need?… These are some of the X-camera dreams shared recently at the Fuji X Forum.

Whatever you desire, you can keep up sharing it in this thread. We will then collect all the different wishes and make the Ultimate Dream-X-Camera poll out of your suggestions shared here on the Fuji X Forum.

It’s time to let Fuji know what our secret wishes are!

KAIZEN IS BACK: Fuji France says: “Firmware Update for the X-E2 will come. Release date not yet fixed!”

When Fuji announced Firmware 4.0 for the X-T1, many X-shooters made the same question of FXF Member Sodela in this thread: “Are there plans for releasing an update for the E2 lke the 4.0 for the X-T1??”… a very Hot discussion, check it out here.

Well, we have a first official statement of Fujifilm France, who said via facebook, that:

“Following the announcement of the updated firmware of the x-T1, We received a lot of requests for an update to the x-E2. In response to these requests, we plan to publish an update to the x-E2 as soon as possible. The date of publication is not yet fixed and will depend on the changes made by this update, that we will define from the requests of our users.

This [X-E2 firmware] is possible because we know that our Japanese engineers are working on it“

Fujifilm France is more sceptical to what belongs a possible update for the X-M1: “I would not say this, but the X-M1 remains more marginal. We know that it is in the study.”

Fuji really plans a Super Fast XF 33mmF1.0 (SRP)! POLL: Should Fuji go ahead and make it?

Share

[wysija_form id=”1″]

_ _ _

A source, who was right in the past (SRP), just gave me an update about the previously rumored super fast F1.0 lens.

The source said that it is true: Fujifilm is considering to make a super fast lens (at the moment planed as XF 33mmF1.0). The bad part of this rumor: it’s not a final decision of Fujifilm… plans could still be dropped.

So let’s help Fuji to make their final decision: do you think such a super-fast “prestige” lens (or call it “freak” lens) would be a good move by Fujifilm and how much you would eventually pay for it. And most important: how do we get away with buying the 33mmF1.0 and avoid divorce? An initial guide on How To Convince your better half can be found at our New Fuji X Forum… everyone can read it, and feel free to join the discussion with your own suggestions ;) .
