Fujinon XF33mmF1.4 and XF23mmF1.4 II Coming with Linear Autofocus Motor and Weather Sealing on September 2

The Fujinon XF33mm f/1.4 and the Fujinon XF 23mm f/1.4 II will be announced on September 2.

Today we can tell you that both these lenses will have weather sealing as well as linear motor autofocus.

As explained by Fuji Guy Billy in this article, Fujifilm uses four different type of motors in their lenses:

  • stepping motors
  • linear motors
  • DC coreless motors
  • ultrasonic type of motors

Each motor has its Pros and Cons and you can read about it here.

Linear motors are certainly not the smallest, but they have two wonderful characteristics: they are fast and silent.

BREAKING: Fujinon XF23mmF1.4 MKII with Weather Sealing to be Announced September 2

You might remember we told you back in April that Fujifilm will launch the Fujinon XF23mmF1.4 MKII and that it should be released in 2022.

Well, it is correct, the XF23mmF1.4II is coming, but earlier than originally planed.

According to sources Fujifilm stepped on the gas and anticipated the release of the Fujinon XF23mmF1.4 MKII to 2021.

I don’t know when exactly it will ship, but the official announcement will take place at the Fujifilm X Summit on September 2.

Another tidbit a kind new source passed us (thanks, also for the X-T30II) : it will come with weather sealing.

The original Fujinon XF23mmF1.4 was my workhorse at the recent wedding I photographed and it performed admirably in combination with the Fujifilm X-T4.
