The French website Phototrend interviewed a couple of Japanese Fujifilm managers at CP+.
You can find the full interview in French linked down below as well as a summary.
The previously leaked Astrhori 75mm f/4 for Fujifilm GFX will be released on August 23.
That’s according to the image we have received and now share with all of you.

RUMOR, NEWS and COMMUNITY
On the official G mount roadmap, Fujifilm says that there will be a tilt shift lens (not lenses) coming in 2023.
And in fact, they even showed us during the X summit in September 2021 mock-ups of that lens. We can clearly see it’s a GF30mmF4 TS.
But here is the thing.
We have been informed, that Fujifilm does not plan to release one, but two tilt shift lenses for the GFX system in 2023.
If Fujifilm does not change plans, one of them will surely be the Fujinon GF30mmF4 TS.
As for the second one, you might remember how back in 2019 Fujifilm officially asked you guys which tilt lenses you want to get for your GFX. For your convenience, you can see the survey again down below.
Loading ...Out of the four options Fujifilm gave us, most of you wanted the widest one, the Fujinon GF 21mm F4 Tilt Shift.
The second spot went to the one lens Fujifilm will make for sure, the Fujinon GF30mmF4 TS (unless they change their mind).
A smaller number of the GFX community desired a Tilt Macro option.
Since my source mentioned a second “tilt shift” and not “tilt macro” lens, all those who voted for the Fujinon GF21mm F4 TS can be quite hopeful now.
But I don’t have details on the second lens. It could be also something totally different. I will see if I can find out more for you guys and will eventually let you know here on FujiRumors.

RUMOR, NEWS and COMMUNITY
With the growing popularity of the Fujifilm GFX system, third party manufacturers started to make G mount lenses.
For example, we have a couple of nice Laowa G mount lenses, Mitakon G mount lenses, Irix G mount lenses and TTArtisan G mount lenses.
Well, another third party manufacturer is about to join the Fujifilm G mount system: AstrHori.
Now, AstrHori isn’t new in the Fujifilm world, as they already make a couple of lenses for the Fujifilm X system.
But the AstrHori 75mm f/4 will be their first lens for the Fujifilm GFX system. You can see an image of it mounted on the Fujifilm GFX100S above (in its original watermark free version ;))

RUMOR, NEWS and COMMUNITY
We published an article, where we reason about the future for the GFX series. A future, to say it once again clearly here, I have no idea about due to the lack of rumors, which tends to make me believe that nothing GFX camera related is coming in the foreseeable future.
And yet, this won’t stop a rumor site from having fun making speculations, or should it? I just need to make sure that you guys get a clear indication from my side that this is a speculation, not a rumor.
So what’s the speculation?
For the reasons we explained in this article, we look at the following cameras:
The comment section on the original article was vivid, as well as over at our Fujifilm GFX Facebook group.
So I thought we could try to nail the whole discussion down to one brutally short survey: which GFX are you potentially more interested in?
And yes, I know we don’t know if they will ever come. We don’t know the features nor the price they’d have if they’d ever come. We don’t know about possible design differences. We know nothing.
But we are a rumor site. And and as such it does not hurt to add a bit of lightness and fun to it by speculating on Fujifilm’s future.
