Fujinon XF400mm f/4 and Fujinon XF550mm f/5.6 Patents Surfaced

Share

There is a lack of long and fast primes in the Fujinon world. A lack on the market, but not on paper, as Fujifilm has patented a few of them:

Now we have new additions in terms of patents, as Fujifilm patented:

  • Fujinon XF400mm f/4
  • Fujinon XF550mm f/5.6

Particularly the Fujinon XF400mm f/4 seems interesting to FujiRumors readers, as it won our huge telephoto primes survey.

99% of patents remain forever on paper. But it’s good to know Fujifilm keeps looking at long prime options.

Down below you can find the details on both lenses.

Viltrox AF 13mm f/1.4 Now Shipping in Germany

Share

As reported at the German website Photoscala, the Viltrox AF 13mm f/1.4 is now shipping via the German Rollei store here. The stores says it will ship it in 2/3 days. It costs €339 only!

It’s strange that it will ship so early in Germany. In fact, the lens is so far not yet listed at the Viltrox store itself, while BHphoto, who has the lens for pre-order here, expects to ship it by late April.

You can find the Viltrox 13mm f/1.4 for pre-order at BHphoto here and Pergear here.

Share

In order to properly celebrate the world backup day 2022, BHphoto has launched plenty of deals on all kind of storage media.

There is a deal also on my favorite USB stick, the SanDisk 128GB Ultra Dual Drive USB, which allows me to use one (super compact) USB stick to transfer data on my USB-C only MacBook Pro and on the USB 3 only computers we use at school. And btw, the SanDisk 128GB Ultra Dual Drive USB was one of the top 2020 best sellers among the FujiRumors community.

UPDATE: TTArtisan AF 32mm f/2.8 not Coming Today (March 28)

Share

Just a few hours ago reported how the rumor was spreading that the TTArtisan AF 32mm f/2.8 would be launched today, March 28.

Well, I have checked it and can say that it will come only for Nikon Z mount and only be released in China mainland.

The wait for the Fujifilm X Mount version (and all other mounts) is therefore a bit longer.

Damn, I forgot my golden rule: only trust rumors shared by FujiRumors ;).

Anyway, I guess the price and specs of the X mount version won’t be any different than those for the Z mount version, hence you can check out our previous article to get some information on its specs.

It’s closest X Mount competitors are:
