RUMOR: Fujifilm to Launch Two Tilt Shift Lenses for GFX in 2023 – SPECULATION: Fujinon GF21mmF4 TS and Fujinon GF30mmF4 TS?

On the official G mount roadmap, Fujifilm says that there will be a tilt shift lens (not lenses) coming in 2023.

And in fact, they even showed us during the X summit in September 2021 mock-ups of that lens. We can clearly see it’s a GF30mmF4 TS.

But here is the thing.

We have been informed, that Fujifilm does not plan to release one, but two tilt shift lenses for the GFX system in 2023.

If Fujifilm does not change plans, one of them will surely be the Fujinon GF30mmF4 TS.

As for the second one, you might remember how back in 2019 Fujifilm officially asked you guys which tilt lenses you want to get for your GFX. For your convenience, you can see the survey again down below.

Out of the four options Fujifilm gave us, most of you wanted the widest one, the Fujinon GF 21mm F4 Tilt Shift.

The second spot went to the one lens Fujifilm will make for sure, the Fujinon GF30mmF4 TS (unless they change their mind).

A smaller number of the GFX community desired a Tilt Macro option.

Since my source mentioned a second “tilt shift” and not “tilt macro” lens, all those who voted for the Fujinon GF21mm F4 TS can be quite hopeful now.

But I don’t have details on the second lens. It could be also something totally different. I will see if I can find out more for you guys and will eventually let you know here on FujiRumors.

Fujifilm Product Timeline 2021/2022: About X-H2, GFX50SII, XF150-600 and More (And What Will NOT Come)

FUJIFILM 2021/2022
RUMORED PRODUCT RELEASE TIMELINE

Time to update our previous X and GFX gear timeline, which was not only limited to 2021, but lacked of some gear we rumored in the following months.

Also, I’ll include a list of products that will not come as the fake rumors keep spreading and I notice a tendency in forums to believe just everything that is written or talked about somewhere, may it be a monochrome camera, and X-T40 with IBIS coming very soon, the X-H2 coming 2021 and totally random stuff like that.

But luckily there is a 100% efficient anti-fake-rumors-vaccine called FujiRumors, so check out the list down below to know what Fujifilm really plans and when it will come.

And it won’t end here.

In fact, I have a skype call scheduled with the Japanese source in very near future. After the last call a few weeks ago, we dropped a couple of rumor-bombs (X-H2 details, the end of X-Trans IV, no more X cameras in 2021, the new GF zoom to come second half 2021 and more stuff I am not allowed to share just yet).

I expect that also our next call will be very interesting.

In case you’d like to know what it shared with us, feel free to follow FujiRumors and get updates via Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter.

But until then, here is the most updated list of gear to come (and gear that won’t come).

RUMOR: New Fujifilm X Lens Roadmap Coming Soon

According to a new anonymous source (that uses a nickname, thanks for that), Fujifilm is going to soon announce a new lens roadmap.

TO THE SOURCE: if you want, we can have a more direct and confidential talk via email (fujirumor@gmail.com). Would be great if we could. Otherwise no problem, thanks a lot already for the help today and for using a nickname, which helps me a lot already.

As you know, a top Japanese Fujifilm manager said there will be 4 new Fujinon X mount lenses within February 2021, and FujiRumors has already shared them all for you.

It’s unclear if there will be an update also for the G mount lens roadmap. But we have leaked Fujifilm’s internal long term G mount roadmap already.

Besides the already pre-announced Fujinon GF80mm f/1.7, here are the top 2 candidates to enter the G mount lens roadmap next:

Fujifilm GFX Secret Roadmap: What We Got, What Changed and What is Still Missing

I just gave a quick look at the internal Fujifilm GFX roadmap FujiRumors leaked back in April 2017.

At that time, the internal Fujifilm roadmap considered the following lenses:

  • GF 250mm F4
  • GF 35mm F2.8
  • GF 20-36mm F3.5-4.5
  • GF 100-200mm F4.5-5.6

The roadmap, that you can see here, mentioned there will be “GF 20-36 or GF 100-200“.

Now let’s see what we got so far, what changed, and what’s missing:

What we got:

What we got, but changed a bit:

  • GF 100-200mm 5.6 (originally planed as f/4.5-5.6)
  • GF 30mm F3.5 (originally planed as 35 f/2.8)

What’s still missing:

  • GF 20-36mm F3.5-4.5

In June 2017, our sources then informed us, that the Fujinon GF 80mm f/1.4 has been added to the internal GF lens roadmap.

But also in this case, it took Fujifilm longer than expected to release it, mainly because of prolonged internal discussions, that ended up changing the lens from GF80mm f/1.4 to the one we find in the newest GF lens roadmap: the Fujinon GF 80mm f/1.7.

So what can we expect next?

Well, the current roadmap officially shows:

  • 2020 – Fujinon GF30mmF3.5 R WR
  • 2021 – Fujinon GF80mmF1.7 R WR

It’s strange Fujifilm didn’t add any tilt shift lens to the roadmap, because, if you remember the official Fujifilm G mount lens request survey, Fujifilm gave us only tilt shift lenses to vote on.

But as there will be surely at least one more G mount lens coming in 2021 (along with the Fujinon GF80mm f/1.7), maybe we could see one of these two options coming:

Let’s hope we will get both these lenses in 2021, in addition to the Fujinon GF80mmF1.7 R WR.
