Fujifilm XF 50mm f/1 to be announced next week - Klaus - 08-28-2020 https://www.fujirumors.com/leaked-fujinon-xf-50mm-f-1-0-press-text-worlds-first-f1-0-autofocus-mirrorless-lens/ Took em a while RE: Fujifilm ZF 50mm f/1 to be announced next week - Rover - 08-29-2020 Pity that the 33/1 had to get the axe. RE: Fujifilm ZF 50mm f/1 to be announced next week - thxbb12 - 08-29-2020 If someone needs this monster of a lens for its blurring ability, they would be much better served with a FF system. Also the 50mm APS-C focal length is odd to say the last. It's neither normal (33mm) nor portrait (56mm).

They (Fuji) started out with the idea of 33mm f1. Apparently they found it impossible to design such a lens, so they switched to 50mm f1. Pretty silly process. So now you get a 75mm f1.5 FF equivalent, next to the 56mm f1.2. Pretty unique focal length for APS-C only, and pretty nonsensical. At least it will be a lot heavier, and sharper, than my 55mm f1.2 lenses. RE: Fujifilm ZF 50mm f/1 to be announced next week - Rover - 08-29-2020 Yeah, not much of a differentiation between this and the 56/1.2, and of course the 33 would've made vastly more sense. If I'd been assembling a Fuji system (and I yet may), I'd go for the 16/56/100-400 and the rest is not decided so far (18-55? Touit 12?) Not this one, even though I applaud Fuji for doing this, after all. RE: Fujifilm ZF 50mm f/1 to be announced next week - obican - 08-30-2020 Need a 35/1.4 Mark II. Better AF and slightly better optics in a package not much larger. RE: Fujifilm ZF 50mm f/1 to be announced next week - you2 - 09-02-2020 They did it because they could.

RE: Fujifilm XF 50mm f/1 to be announced next week - Rover - 09-03-2020 People have been pointing out elsewhere (DPReview...) that the 50 is supposed to have a much better AF motor. Since I've never handled the 56, I don't know how bad (or how good) it really is, though that lens was on my radar for the possible switch to Fuji (that I never pulled the trigger on, however). |
