Yongnuo 50mm F1.8X PRO for Fujifilm X Mount Coming in June and New Image on X-H2S
Yongnuo YN50mm f/1.8
FujiRumors has already told you that Yongnuo is teasing the Yongnuo 50mm F1.8X DA DSM PRO X Mount lens coming next.
And not only that! We have also shared lots of images of this (and four other) upcoming Yongnuo X mount lenses.
Now an image appeared on the Chinese social media Weibo (and spotted by the Japanese website Asobinet) showing the lens mounted on the Fujifilm X-H2S (you can see the image above).
Coming in June… with Aperture Ring?
If the google translation didn’t mess it up, I think Yongnuo said on their Weibo account that it will come in June.
And also, they say that it will use the same optical design of the Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 for Sony E Mount, with the addition of an aperture ring (you can read it here).
Now I don’t know if it’s because it’s midnight here on the beautiful road of wine and my tired eyes are overseeing something, but I don’t really notice an aperture ring (well visible though in many of their other upcoming X mount lenses).
Anyway, if they did add the aperture ring, than that’s definitely a nice touch and I wish other lens manufacturers would have done the same when they adapted their Sony E mount glass to the X system.
The complete list of autofocus lenses Yongnuo is planing to launch is:
- Yongnuo 11mm f/1.8
- Yongnuo 23mm f/1.4
- Yongnuo 33mm f/1.4
- Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8
- Yongnuo 56mm f/1.4
Some of these new Yongnuo lenses are going to have some stiff competition:
Yongnuo 11mm f/1.8 vs…
Yongnuo 23mm f/1.4 vs…
Yongnuo 33mm f/1.4 vs…
Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 vs…
Yongnuo 56mm f/1.4 vs…
Good luck Yongnuo!
