Fujifilm GFX Fixed Lens Camera Lens Patents Spotted – GF35mm F3.5, GF40mm F3.5 and GF50mm F3.5
The following lens patents for the GFX have been spotted by the Japanese website asobinet.
- GF35mmF3.5
(more precisely 33mmF3.6) - GF40mmF3.5
(more precisely 39mmF3.6 and 43mmF3.6) - GF50mmF3.5
(more precisely 51mmF3.6)
Asobinet speculates that these are patents for a fixed lens camera, since it has a short back focus.
Fellow FujiRumors readers already know that the fixed lens Fujifilm GFX will come in the first half of 2025 with a 28mm equivalent lens, which means it will be 35mm in GFX format.
All of the patents show an f/3.5 aperture, which would be a f/2.8 depth of field equivalent in full frame.
