Fujifilm recently said that there will be “more lenses for X and GFX mount” coming in 2021.
Of course one of those will be the Fujinon XF18mmF1.4 R WR which is on the official roadmap.
And that’s already it, no other lenses are the latest Fujinon X and GFX roadmaps.
However, FujiRumors already exclusively leaked for you that there will be also:
Now trusted sources contacted me, saying that one more lens coming in 2021 will be a Fujinon XF f/1.4 prime lens. As we told you recently, it won’t be the XF35mmF1.4 R WR, though.
So, another nice and fast f/1.4 prime will join the X club in 2021.

Well, nice to see Europe catching up with the amazing GF lens deals in USA, where there is a $500 mail-in rebate on the following lenses:
Now the very same deals now run also in Europe, from Germany to UK, from France to Italy, except that the GF110mm is replaced by the GF45mm. This time it seems that Amazon is excluded from the official retailer list participating to this deal.
As I pre-ordered a GFX100S myself, I am now torn between the GF32-64mmF4 and the GF45-100mmF4 for landscape photography, and this deals is just great timing from Fujifilm. Thanks!!!
Fujifilm UK and Fujifilm IT decided that it’s time to get rid of your full frame gear and offers you £450 trade in bonus (on top of the trade-in value of your FF camera) if you purchase the Fujifilm GFX100S. You can also trade in other medium format gear (full list below). And not only that. If you buy the Fujifilm GFX100S, you’ll get the Fujifilm BC-W235 dual battery charger for free or a free NP-W235 battery.

A patent has been spotted for a Fujinon XF 18-200mm F3.5-6.5. Now, I remember that a patent about a Fujinon18-200mm F3.5-6.5 has been spotted also back in 2014, and the optical design is similar indeed.
From the patent details we see that this lens has a higher optical magnification than the XF16-80mm F4 and the XF18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 and covers the angle of view equivalent to “25.5-300mm” in full size. The patent does not mention OIS.
But…
We continue covering Fujifilm’s Focus on Glass series, this time with the Fujinon GF80mmF1.7. Down below is a summary.
Also down below you can find the final review of the Fujinon GF80mmF1.7 by Dustin Abbott and ZP Productions (videos + summary).

Guys, I told you to wait and pre-order the new XF27mmF2.8 R WR only AFTER I got my copy. But apparently you didn’t listen to me, tons of you pre-ordered it, and now I have to wait even longer for my Fujinon XF27mmF2.8 R WR!
In fact, Fujifilm has just announced that the demand for Fuji’s little gem, the Fujinon XF27mmF2.8 R WR is higher than they expected causing delivery delays all over the globe.
I mean, I can patiently wait for the Fujifilm GFX100S I just pre-ordered, but I can’t wait for the XF27mmF2.8 R WR and my plan was to grab one as soon as stores open again and I can leave my locked down village. But now I am afraid my local store won’t have any XF27mmF2.8 R WR for a while.
What a bad way to start the day. Well, at least I got the COVID vaccine today.
Down below the google translated Fujifilm statement.

So guys, February was the first month that I had to run FujiRumors as a daddy (he was born January 26).
You might therefore have noticed that sometimes I reply to tweets at 3AM, or a dramatic rise of typos in my articles. Sorry for that. ;) But I think my wife and me slowly get the hang of it.
The good thing is, FujiRumors just kept running as usual, and here are the top 10 articles for February.

Fujifilm General Manager Takashi Ueno said at the virtual CP+ convention 2021 that Fujifilm will release “many mirrorless X and GFX lenses this year“.
Well, the start in 2021 was fantastic, with the following three lenses launched:
But that is apparently not enough for 2021.
FujiRumors already told you to forget about the XF35mmF1.4MKII. That’s rocksolid multiple confirmed from several trusted sources.
What will still come for sure are:
We also know Fujifilm is also working on a Fujinon XF150-600mm, but that one should come in 2022. Of course FujiRumors is investigating and making constant progress on the rumor front, so expect updates soon.
In the meantime, down below is a summary of Fujifilm’s CP+ online talk.
Just recently we shared the news about a patent showing a Fujinon XF35mmF1.4 MKII.
I did warn you already in that article: attention, don’t get too excited about it, as this is just a patent, and as many other patents, it might never see the light of the day (remember XF16-55mmF2.8 OIS anyone?)
Well, after the article, multiple trusted sources immediately reached out to FujiRumors and told me that Fujifilm is currently not working on a Fujinon XF35mmF1.4 MKII.
Pay attention: “currently not working” does not mean Fujifilm will “never ever” make a XF35mmF1.4MKII. What it means is that right now Fujifilm is investing zero money and time into a XF35mmF1.4 MKII, and 100% of their X-mount lens R&D goes into other X glass.
What will really come?
Surely the XF18mmF1.4. Fujifilm is also working on a Fujinon XF150-600mm.
What else?
Well, I’ll let you know on FujiRumors soon enough ;).
