New Tokina Lens Roadmap for Fujifilm X: Ultra Wide Prime, Standard Prime and 56mmF1.4x coming This Summer

Share

Tokina has updated its lens roadmap, which includes new lenses also for Fujifilm x mount.

First off, in addition to the already exisiting autofocus lenses TOKINA atx-m 23mm F1.4 X and TOKINA atx-m 33mm F1.4 X, they finally gave us a release date for the TOKINA atx-m 56mm F1.4 X, which will come as soon as this summer.

These are basically all rebranded Viltrox lenses.

New to the roadmap are the following APS-C lenses for Fujifilm X mount to come in Winter 2021.

  • SZ Ultra Wide Prime Lens (APS-C lens)
  • SZ Standard Prime Lens (APS-C lens)
  • SZ 500mm F8 Reflex MF Lens (Full Frame Lens – Universal mount System)

Tokina has been explicitly mentioned by Fujifilm as getting official support (they have Fuji’s AF protocols). That’s always better than relying solely on reverse engineering.

And now, Sigma, it’s your turn!

Fujinon XF70-300mmF4-5.6 in Stock – Limited Number (4)

Share

Due to the shortage in parts announced by Fujifilm (an issue that every electronic company in the world has right now), lots of Fujifilm gear is hard to find in stock.

Especially the most recently announced gear is widely unavailable.

Little curiosity: a long time and good friend of mine owns a little company that makes graphite components for the ovens needed to make silicon wafers, and he told me he has so much work right now that semiconductor facotries worldwide are tring to match the chip-demand.

With that said, one of the gear that is hard to find in stock, is the Fujinon XF70-300mmF4-5.6, which is not available at BHphoto here and Adorama here, but a limited number (4) is available at the time of this post at AmazonUS here.

In the last few weeks, I see more and more images taken with this lens at our facebook groups. And I must say what probably most impressed me, are its macro capabilities. Just go to any of our X series facebook groups linked below, search inside the group for “70-300 macro” and be amazed by what you’ll see,

And just overall, the XF70-300mm seems to be a great performer. Down below you can see some customer review ratings.

Gosh, I spend all my holiday/tavel/free time/restaurants money saved in 2020/2021 in gear already (GFX100S, GF64-32, XF80 macro, XF27mmF2.8MKII), and I am trying to save my marriage by not purchasing any new gear this year, but the XF70-300mm is one of my top temptations of 2021 along with the GF100-200, the GF50mmF3.5 and also my Nr.1 temptation, the X-E4.

Mid 2021 Rumor Check: Fujifilm X-H2, GFX50SII, Future Lenses and More (with Reliability Ranking)

Share

Half a year has passed.

Lots of rumors have been shared already (and many more will come ;) ).

However, there is something I never do: rank the rumors in a reliability ranking.

I hate to do that, as an anonymous rumor is not necessarily less reliable than a trusted rumor. There is much more that needs to be checked in order to determine if a rumor is reliable or not. And also, something that is rocksolid at some point, may become less sure later on as Fujifilm changes plans.

That’s why I hate to rank rumors.

However, it is something you request me to do, hence, 1 or 2 times a year I bend to your will and do just that.

So, you can find the rumor-ranking down below.

Also, we will check back and see which rumors FujiRumors got right and which wrong, so that you guys can judge my work and decide if your time on FR was well spent or not. I will be extremely brutal to myself and move in the wrong section every ever so minimal error I made, even though it was accurate at the time of sharing.

Two more things:

  • Included in the list some of the fake rumors circulating around that FujiRumors had to debunk.
  • If you want to get a timeline on when the products will come, check out this post.

One last note: Back in November 2020 we shared an article, where Sigma itself teased Fujifilm X mount lenses coming 2021. And as if that was not enough, they teased them again in February 2021. In between those Sigma teasers, on December 14, 2020, FujiRumors shared a rumor that Sigma has indeed plans to release Fujifilm X mount lenses. This rumor is not included in the list below, as it from 2020. If you want to check back the 2020 rumors, make sure to read this article.

So let’s start:

  • 49 rumors shared in 2021 so far (many more to come)
  • 27 rumors still to be verified
  • 21 correct rumors out of 22 verifiable rumors
  • 1 wrong rumor out of 22 verifiable rumors (I told you I’ll be brutal to myself ;))
  • 95,45% correct rumors

The Truth about the Fujinon GF56mm f/5.6 R WR Rumors!

Share

I have read a fake rumor that Fujifilm will launch a Fujinon GF 56mm f/5.6 lens.

Of course this is a 100% fake rumor (trust me, I know what I talk about), and it serves one goal only: find a fast and cheap way to get your attention, your time and your money.

And little it matters if clickbait sites mislead their readers and disrespect their community by sharing fakes. All they want is traffic and money. Whatever is needed to achieve that, they’ll do it.

But here on FujiRumors we respect and love this whole community way too much to take such cheap shortcuts.

What will really come? Well, read FujiRumors to find it out ;).

Time is ticking. The article is over. You know the truth.

Make good use of the time you’ve left today. Maybe take some pictures. Personally, I’ll stay at home, and will use it playing with my son while waiting for my Fujifilm GFX100S to be delivered. Can’t think of a better day for me :).
