Together with the X-S20 camera , Fujifilm at X-Summit introduced the FUJINON XF 8mm F3.5 R WR lens , the widest lens in the XF lineup. It can be a good option for shooting nature, landscapes, architecture, and thanks to its compact size it will be convenient for everyday use. The price is $800.
With a viewing angle of more than 120 degrees, you can capture a wider perspective than the human eye. The XF8mmF3.5 R WR will give you a dynamic picture, capturing the world in a whole new way.
The lens is designed for use with cameras with high resolution – the manufacturer calls the figure 40 megapixels. It effectively suppresses aberrations throughout the frame and provides a clear and high-quality image thanks to special elements.
The weight of 215 g makes this lens a completely unburdensome optical tool, and the dust- and moisture-resistant design allows it to be used for shooting in the most difficult conditions.
In addition to still photography, the XF 8mm f/3.5 is a great option for filming too, thanks to its fast, minimal-breathing autofocus and internal focusing. Tell your stories effectively with this small lens, ideal for vlogging and ultra-wide angles.
