Samyang Teases Fujifilm X Mount Autofocus Lens Coming October 26 (Samyang 12mm F2 AF)

Samyang has now teased again that they will launch a new lens for Fujifilm X mount.

We know thanks to the previous teaser that it will be an autofocus lens and looking of the shape of the lens, we can see it is identical to the Samyang 12mm f/2.0 AF for Sony E-Mount.

So we can safely assume that on October 26, Samyang will officially announce the Samyang 12mm f/2.0 for Fujifilm X.

Samyang 12mm f/2.0 Autofocus Lens for Fujifilm X Mount Coming Soon

We just reported how Samyang is about to launch their first autofocus lens for Fujifilm X Mount on October 26.

Above you can see a comparison between the blacked out teaser image of the lens and the new Samyang 12mm f/2.0 AF for Sony E-Mount. They look identical, so we can now safely assume that the lens to come will be the Samyang 12mm f/2.0 AF for Fujifilm X Mount.

The Sony version enjoys first very positives reviews at BHphoto here and AmazonUS here.

So far I have used a lot my good old Samyang 12mm f/2 manual focus lens and I trust their image quality. Hence, I am looking forward to their first autofocus X mount lens, too.

And since it’s fixed now, third party manufactures are joining the X mount with their own autofocus lenses.

The next one to come will be Samyang, who officially teased their first autofocus Fujifilm X mount lens to come October 26 earliest.

Notice Regarding Postponement of Release of “Fujinon Lens XF23mmF1.4 R LM WR”

The new Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4 R LM WR is getting delayed from the original planned shipping date of November 30 to February 2022. Also the LH-XF23 II is getting delayed.

The reason is not the too high demand this time (like with the XF33mmF1.4), as the pre-orders are in line with what Fujifilm expected. The reason is the delay in parts procurement. You can read the press release below.

At the moment stores still show November 30 as shipping start, but I guess we will see that change in the next few days.
