Fujifilm Spain has published very short videos about the Fujinon XF8-16mm F2.8 and the Fujinon GF30mm F3.5, that include some tidbits about its development, that I have extracted for you.
Both videos can be found below, along with a written summary.
The Fujinon XF200mm f/2 is arguably the best lens Fujifilm has released in a while. It’s image quality without compromise.
DPRTV now published a short test of this lens (video below). The whole episode was filmed on the Fujifilm GFX 100.
big and bulky
OIS is very effective
similar price point to FF counterparts
awesome optical performance
it’s hard to say anything negative about optical performance
even with the 1.4x teleconverter, sharpness is incredibly well maintained
bokeh is beautiful
nice option for action and wildlife
very fast AF, best on Fujifilm X-T3
manual focus has a really long turn, unsuable for video manual focus
the autofocus in video is really smooth
Fujinon XF200mm F/2 and XF8-16mm f/2.8 are Fujifilm’s option from keeping you to having you go full frame
Here at FujiRumors, we perfectly know that lenses like the XF200mm f/2, XF8-16mm f/2.8 and also the upcoming Fujinon XF 33mm f/1.0 are niche lenses, but as we wrote here, we consider them of absolute importance to stop the full frame DOF whining :).
