BREAKING: Fujifilm Working on Fujinon XF56mm f/1.2 MKII

According to our very helpful sources (THANKS!!!), along with the Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4 MKII, Fujifilm is right now working also on the Fujinon XF 56mm f/1.2 MKII.

To me, this comes rather surprising, as Fujifilm has just recently launched the Fujinon XF50mm f/1.0 WR, making, in my opinion, a refresh of the original XF 56mmF1.2 not an urgent matter.

As an owner of the XF56mmF1.2 myself, I can say that optically this lens is an absolute gem, but sure there are other areas, where it could need some improvements, like autofocus and weather sealing.

However, if I was to buy a portrait lens today, I’d probably just get together those extra $500 bucks and go for the XF50mmF1.0.

But that’s just me. I can totally understand if the XF56mmF1.2 MKII would be your personal top pick. Smaller price, more compact body and maybe even faster autofocus due to smaller glass elements.

As there are good reasons to go for the XF 50mm f/1.0, there are also many other good reasons to go for the XF 56mm f/1.2. It really comes down to personal needs and preferences, and hence there is no “right” or “wrong” answer.

Fujifilm is currently offering lots of good stuff in the 50mm prime range:

BREAKING: Fujifilm Working on Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4 MKII

According to our sources, Fujifilm is currently working on the Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4 MKII.

I am sure this rumor will make many of you very happy.

I own the original XF23mm f/1.4, which was the lens I used to take the very first image of my newborn son. And although my love goes to my XF35mmF1.4, which you can see in action here in Barcelona (one of my most liked images in Instagram), I find my XF 23mmF1.4 to be incredible versatile and hence I keep and use it with joy.

But as I told you earlier today, Fujifilm is working on two MKII lenses. And while the XF23mmF1.4 MKII was an easy call, personally I was a bit more surprised by the second MKII lens.

Which one it is will be shared very soon in a dedicated article, as I would like to organize the discussions in separated posts, to avoid confusion in the comments. I predict the second lens will generate more debates.

I am writing the article right now. Get ready for it :).

VISION 2023: Fujifilm’s New Medium-Term Management Plan Gives Up Dreams to Beat SONY and CANON?

Fujifilm has launched its medium-term management plan called VISION2023.

It’s clear that their focus is on the healthcare business and quite frankly the mention of its imaging division at the very end of the press release you can read below, feels more like a mandatory half-hearted addendum.

That’s totally different compared to their VISION2019 plan that Fujifilm published in 2017 here, where they literally wrote:
