CES 2014: Fujifilm has announced the XF 56mm F1.2 R, a fast short telephoto ‘portrait’ lens for its X system mirrorless cameras. With an angle of view equivalent to an 85mm lens on full frame, it uses an internal focus design for fast, silent autofocus. It has an aperture ring, but unlike the company’s wide angle primes, no distance or depth of field scales. It’ll be available in February, with a suggested retail price of $ 999.99 / £999.99.
