AmazonUS has an incredible deal on the Fujinon XF18mm F2.
According to a source, right in the past (SRP), the Fujinon XF 18mm F2 Mark II is high on Fuji’s “To Do” list.
We recently launched the Ultimate X-Series Lens Poll here on FujiRumors. In case you missed it, check out the results here. All I will anticipate now is that the Fujinon XF 18mm F2 Mark II is indeed very high on the FR-community wish-list (currently #5 out of 30 lenses).
I owned the XF 18mm F2, but sold it to get some money to buy the 12mm Samyang and the Fujinon XF 18-135. My reasoning was that I don’t really need it anymore, owning the 18-55 and 18-135 that cover the 18mm focal length. However, I have to say that I regret selling it, since I miss the compact size of the 18/2. I was almost about to pull the trigger on the 27mm pancake to finally have a very compact lens again, but after this rumor I guess I will hold on a little bit more… ;)
The XF18mmF2 was also Nate’s choice for his One Year, One Lens World Travel.

The Fujifilm XF50mmF2 WR will be announced on January 19, along with the Fujifilm GFX, X100F and X-T20.
Seems like my Moka will have to work even harder in the next days and weeks… ;)
Forum Question: Get the XF56mm f1.2 lens or wait for the XF 50mm f2?

Okan Yilmaz: Salt Lake X-T1, 18-135mm www.okanyilmaz.net
It continues to amaze me, what X-shooter all over the world share at the FujiRumors Facebook Page (click “See All”).
Many images really trigger my desire to travel and to photograph the world with my X-gear. But I’ll somehow have to manage my “wanderlust” until my next longer holidays. And in the meantime, looking at your images helps me not only to get an idea of which places I could visit, but also to think about which X-gear I should eventually take with me.
In the last few months, there is particulary one X-shooter, Okan Yilmaz, who is sharing tons of great images from all around the world, mostly taken with the Fujinon XF 18-135 (now $200 off at Adorama, BHphoto, AmazonUS and FocusCamera) and the XF10-24mm (now $200 off at Adorama, BHphoto, AmazonUS, FocusCamera)
Especially the XF18-135 seems to be a perfect allrounder for travels. It’s a sturdy, weather sealed lens (I made a hardcore test ;) ), quite sharp for a super-zoom and with it’s class leading OIS, it is very useful in low light (as long as your subject isn’t moving, of course)
When it comes to select my lenses for travels, I can’t see myself travelling without my 18-135 anymore. It’s just too flexible.
So I invite you to check out todays selection and to see what the 18-135 (and other lenses) can do in the hands of passionate X-shooters :-)

According to a trusted source (thanks), Fujiiflm will announce the Fujinon XF50mmF2 WR along with the Fuji X-A10 in November.
The XF50mmF2 WR will be the third compact weather resistant F2 lens after the XF35mmF2 WR and the XF23mmF2 WR.
It’s a well known fact, that the XF35mmF2 WR is a terrific success for Fujifilm. Also the XF23mmF2 WR seems to sell like hot cakes now… and I wouldn’t be surprised if also the XF50mmF2 WR turns out to be a winner, too.
The other, long rumored lenses, like the XF33mmF1.0, XF8-16mmF2.8 WR and XF200mmF2 (or F2.8) have all been postponed, since Fujifilm wanted to focus on the small and compact F2 trinity + the 80mmF2.8 OIS WR (which replaced the 120mmF2.8 that was in the original roadmap).
And while I get it why people love those small weather sealed F2 guys so much, I hope that in 2017 Fujifilm will catch up were they dropped plans many months ago, and work again on the 33/1, 8-16/2.8 and 200mm…. would love to see them all coming in 2017…. but my personal favorite would be… the… ok, I said it in the Poll below ;)
have a Great day,
