FIRST OFF: Thanks a lot, Etienne (blog) for the samples and your impressions.
Check out his blog about 1 year travel he did with his Fujis here at pack2life!
We are still waiting for Fujifilm to upload their official samples… so in the meantime you can find some on Fujirumors. This time it’s FR-reader Etienne, who shared with us some of his samples taken with the upcoming XF 50-140mm f/2.8 OIS WR and XF 56mm f/1.2 APD
I’ll just share one low resolution image (with crop) taken with the XF 50-140mm f/2.8 OIS WR at 140 f/2.8 (above) and one shot with the XF 56mm f/1.2 APD (at the bottom). For all the full resolution samples, download them at dropbox here. The samples are really very sharp!
He also send us 3 things he has noticed during this event:
-
the 90mm is really huge compared to the 56mm (ok the 140-400mm is even bigger but not too long for this range)
-
the tripod collar of the preproduction 50-140mm can’t be entirely removed of the lens. The collar will stay but you can “only” remove the L shape part that is attached to the tripod (with 2 screws). It is actually different from the Canon 70-200mm f/4 I had in the past (no screws like this). I don’t know if it is going to be the same thing on the final model. I don’t really like it this way.
-
the electronic shutter once activated made the X.T1 a perfect silence camera (I tried that on the graphite X-T1).
Also the threeguyswithcameras was at the event, and they posted their samples and impressions here.
