By

Fuji has unveiled the new GF 50mm f/3.5 R LM WR lens for its medium format GFX camera line, including the new Fuji GFX 100. The new lens is equivalent to a 40mm focal length in 35mm film format.

At 11.8oz, the GF 50mm is the smallest and lightest in the GF lens line to date. Lens construction consists of 9 elements in 6 groups and includes one aspherical lens element to minimize spherical aberration and barrel distortion. It also features a 62mm filter ring, weather-sealing in 10 places along the lens barrel and operation temperatures down to 14°F.

The Fujifilm GF 50mm f/3.5 R LM WR retails for $999.95 and will be available on September 26, 2019. Check it out here at B&H Photo.

It also features weather-sealing and operation down to 14°F.
