Fujinon X Mount Roadmap 2021/2022 Updated with Latest Rumored Lenses

The Hidden X Mount Roadmap

Many people complain that Fujifilm is not updating its lens roadmap.

And since I love my community to be happy, let me take over the job that Fujifilm refuses to do.

Also, in the comments to our earlier posts some fellow FR-readers asked me if, in the light of the latest rumors, the timeline for other lenses is still confirmed or if something changed.

So let me sum it up clearly in a sort of unofficial roadmap today, by listing all future X mount lenses that we rumored so far on FujiRumors.

Of course I am working to add more lenses to the list. So definitely stay tuned on FujiRumors.

The Future Looks Good

It’s a couple of years that Fujifilm hasn’t been so active on the Fujinon X mount lens front.

Look at what we got in the last few months (late 2020 / early 2021)

And that’s not even all for 2021. In fact, surely we will get the XF33mm F1.4 R WR. But will there be even more in 2021? FujiRumors is investigating and will let you know.

Also 2022 seems interesting, thanks to two highly desired MKII lenses and an intriguing Fujinon XF150-600mm. Plus, also for 2022 I am working on more, so expect updates.

COMING 2022: Fujinon XF56mm f/1.2 MKII and XF23mm f/1.4 MKII

We reported that Fujifilm is working on:

I am working on more details, but for now all I can say is that both these lenses will most likely come in 2022.

BREAKING: Fujifilm Working on Fujinon XF56mm f/1.2 MKII

According to our very helpful sources (THANKS!!!), along with the Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4 MKII, Fujifilm is right now working also on the Fujinon XF 56mm f/1.2 MKII.

To me, this comes rather surprising, as Fujifilm has just recently launched the Fujinon XF50mm f/1.0 WR, making, in my opinion, a refresh of the original XF 56mmF1.2 not an urgent matter.

As an owner of the XF56mmF1.2 myself, I can say that optically this lens is an absolute gem, but sure there are other areas, where it could need some improvements, like autofocus and weather sealing.

However, if I was to buy a portrait lens today, I’d probably just get together those extra $500 bucks and go for the XF50mmF1.0.

But that’s just me. I can totally understand if the XF56mmF1.2 MKII would be your personal top pick. Smaller price, more compact body and maybe even faster autofocus due to smaller glass elements.

As there are good reasons to go for the XF 50mm f/1.0, there are also many other good reasons to go for the XF 56mm f/1.2. It really comes down to personal needs and preferences, and hence there is no “right” or “wrong” answer.

Fujifilm is currently offering lots of good stuff in the 50mm prime range:

BREAKING: Fujifilm Working on Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4 MKII

According to our sources, Fujifilm is currently working on the Fujinon XF23mm f/1.4 MKII.

I am sure this rumor will make many of you very happy.

I own the original XF23mm f/1.4, which was the lens I used to take the very first image of my newborn son. And although my love goes to my XF35mmF1.4, which you can see in action here in Barcelona (one of my most liked images in Instagram), I find my XF 23mmF1.4 to be incredible versatile and hence I keep and use it with joy.

But as I told you earlier today, Fujifilm is working on two MKII lenses. And while the XF23mmF1.4 MKII was an easy call, personally I was a bit more surprised by the second MKII lens.

Which one it is will be shared very soon in a dedicated article, as I would like to organize the discussions in separated posts, to avoid confusion in the comments. I predict the second lens will generate more debates.

I am writing the article right now. Get ready for it :).

VISION 2023: Fujifilm’s New Medium-Term Management Plan Gives Up Dreams to Beat SONY and CANON?

Fujifilm has launched its medium-term management plan called VISION2023.

It’s clear that their focus is on the healthcare business and quite frankly the mention of its imaging division at the very end of the press release you can read below, feels more like a mandatory half-hearted addendum.

That’s totally different compared to their VISION2019 plan that Fujifilm published in 2017 here, where they literally wrote:
