While Sigma Sleeps, Tamron Confirms Three More Fujifilm X Mount Lenses Coming Next (11-20mmF2.8, 17-70mmF2.8 and ?)

Share

Back in July Tamron already officially confirmed that more Fujifilm X Mount lenses will come in future (in addition to the already available Tamron 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3).

Now in a new interview a Tamron manager confirmed it and gave a few more details for the upcoming Tamron X mount lenses, and he mentioned they plan to release three lenses next:

  • a standard zoom
  • a wide-angle zoom
  • a telephoto zoom

So the above is what I have read with my own eyes watching the X Talk with Tamron (video below). But a FR-reader contacted me saying that a Tamron manager also went more specific saying that some of the options Tamron considers to make are the following:

This would make a whole lot of sense as both these lenses already exist for APS-C Sony E mount. And yet, just to be clear, I have not personally read this information but it has been passed to me anonymously by a FR-reader via rumor box, who told me a Tamron manager mentioned these two lenses. If anyone has the link to this statement, feel free to send it to me via fujirumor@gmail.com or share it in the comments.

As for the telephoto zoom, check out the results of our huge Tamron (and Sigma) X mount lens wishlist survey to see what FR-readers desire most.

Time to wake up Sigma ;).

If you ever checked out the “Complete Overview over the available and upcoming Fuji X-Mount lenses” at our Fujifilm X Forum (made by FXF member Quincy), then you will already know that Kenko offers the Kenko 400mm f/8.0 mirror lens for Fujifilm X Mount.

However, the lens has in the meantime been removed from the Kenko page (you can see the Google cached page here).

Now it seems that a refresh is on the way. In fact, Nokishita reports that the Kenko 400mm F8 IIS Mirror Lens for various mounts (including Fujifilm X) will come shortly.

TTArtisan 23mm f/1.4 Reviews

Share

We just reported how the new TTArtisan 23mm f/1.4 is now available for pre-order also at AmazonUS here. Some of you guys asked in the comments how this lens performs, so I thought a mini-roundup about this lens could be something appreciated by the FR-communty.

There is so far not much coverage, but the few there is will give you quite an accurate idea on what to expect from this lens. So make sure to check out the reviews down below.

I think the silver version could look terribly good in combination with my silver X-T4.

Fujifilm GFX: One of 2021 Most Praised Systems Gets a Roundup – GFX100S Adventure Film, GF110/2 vs GF80/1.7, GFX50SII and More

Share

The year is ending, the internet is flooded by “best and worst” articles and videos, and at some point of the ranking the Fujifilm GFX system always comes out on the very top positions.

It happened for example with DPRTV here (who gave tremendous praise to the Fujifilm GFX100S) and with BH Explora here, who ranked both, the GFX100S and the new GFX50SII in the top 10 mirrorless cameras list for 2021.

Now, nobody can predict the future in the long term. So if the GFX system will keep up rising or not remains an open question whose outcome will depend on many things.

But if we look back on how it all started with the GFX system and where the system is now, then we can surely say that Fujifilm has set some solid fundaments on which they could potentially build up something very special.

So, in order to honor the big GFX year that we just had, we celebrate today with a dedicated GFX roundup that you can find below.
