Fujifilm releases a dynamic duo of lenses with a new XF 16-55 f/2.8 II and XF 500mm f/5.6 for X-mount. These professional lenses make a lot of promises.
Fujifilm has one of the most expansive stable of lenses you could desire for its illustrious X-mount cameras and it just got two more. This time, it chose to expand its lineup on opposite sides of the focal length spectrum.wildlife prime lens to compliment the already popular telephoto zooms. These were pre-production lenses and as such, we are limited in what we can review.
The manual focus ring and aperture are smooth and feel nice to the touch, and the lens still has image stabilization and linear focusing motors. The aperture ring can now also be set for a smooth turn without click stops if desired and there is a customizable button as well. If Fujifilm cut anything out of the older design other than weight, I couldn’t find it.From hands-on experience I can say that the 16-55mm f/2.
I appreciate how compact and handy the new 16-55mm was. Pro lenses don’t have to be heavy or unbalanced anymore.The new 500mm f/5.6 carries the illustrious Fujinon name and should be even easier to predict when it comes to overall image quality because it is an almost exact copy of the 500mm for the GFX line of cameras, albeit with a smaller X-mount bayonet instead.
