May 24, 2023In addition to the new X-S20 mirrorless camera, Fujifilm has expanded its X Series lens lineup with the new XF 8mm f/3.5 R WR ultra-wide angle prime lens.XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR lens
Compared to the XF 8-16mm zoom, the XF 8mm prime is smaller and much lighter. In exchange for a slower aperture and the lack of versatility a zoom lens offers, the XF 8mm f/3.5 lens is 590 grams lighter. At 216 grams , the XF 8mm f/3.5 is very lightweight. The XF 8mm f/3.5 lens is just 52.8mm long, whereas the XF 8-16mm f/2.8 is 121.2mm at its max length.
The XF 8mm f/3.5 R WR lens includes a dozen elements organized across nine groups, including three aspherical and two ED lens elements. The lens promises “stunning sharpness” and has been designed with Fujifilm’s latest 40-megapixel image sensor in mind. The lens promises to suppress aberrations and deliver edge-to-edge sharpness. It’s also a rectilinear lens, meaning that distortion at the edge of the frame has been minimized.
