Fujifilm’s creation of cine lenses and a medium-format system doesn’t mean it’s forgotten its stills-shooting X-mount audience. The company has announced an updated lens roadmap, adding an ultra-wide zoom and a telephoto prime lens, both due in 2018.
The updated roadmap positions the ‘Ultra Wide Angle Zoom’ fractionally to the left of the existing 10-24mm F4 R OIS (15-36mm equiv), suggesting it’s likely to cover a similar range but presumably with a different aperture value. Meanwhile, the ‘Telephoto Prime’ lens seems pinned around the 200mm (300 equiv) point.
The X-mount versions of the MK cine zooms are also added to the roadmap, joining the 80mm F2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro as being expected in 2017.
