The Fujinon XF50mm f/1.0 will:
Guys, if you want a fast lens with huge glass elements and at the same time fast autofocus thanks to powerful AF motors, then it’s clear that the lens won’t be the lightest around. At least not until Fujifilm can break the law of physics and revolutionize lens design.
