For those interested in a more in-depth look at the technical qualities of the lens, I have a video on my YouTube channel.
As long as you’re careful, or don’t mind that sort of thing, it’s not really worth worrying about. So, you will find some significant flare and ghosting with bright light sources as they get near the edges of the frame. Image quality is definitely excellent at its core but, of course, the lens doesn’t have all the modern coatings that we have become used to with Fujifilm’s native lenses. On top of that, the aperture produces gorgeous sharp-edged sun stars from city lights. Detail holds up surprisingly well at night as well, with no coma in sight to ruin the beautiful pin lights and no chromatic aberration to mar the high contrast edges of the cityscape. My first thought was: “Sun stars!” So, I took the lens down to the Han River here in Seoul for some quick night shots. When the AstrHori lens is stopped down, the five, dead-straight, aperture blades come into view. Many of these adapted lenses produce quite good results, although maybe not quite what the native GF lenses do. This has led many people to buy into the GFX body but opt to adapt lenses from smaller formats to the system for reasons such as cost, size, weight, and even rendering. Lenses with fast apertures and autofocus that cover sensors like the GFX necessarily require a lot of glass and complex formulas to perform well. Perhaps still the most prohibitive aspect of the GFX system, however, is the cost and bulk of the native GF lenses. With the release of the GFX 50S, Fujifilm began changing all facets of what it meant to get into digital medium format photography. The lens configuration adopts the latest optical system that uses three abnormally dispersion glass out of the 9 elements in 6 groups. While it was considerably cheaper than options such as those from Hasselblad and Phase One, it was still bulky and heavy. The MACRO APO-ULTRON 35mm F2 X-mount is a large-aperture standard macro lens designed exclusively for Fujifilm X-mount. It was not too long ago that the most affordable option for medium format was the large, heavy, albeit extremely capable, Pentax system. They are always a popular choice for portrait and street photography, with the focal length of the lens being the key decider in what application it is most useful for.Fujifilm has undoubtedly changed the landscape when it comes to medium format digital photography. Quite recently however both enthusiasts and novices have tended to agree that having a prime lens or two in your collections is actually a necessity. Once the standard lens that came kitted with every camera, prime lenses inevitably fell out of popularity among the consumer markets, in favour of the more versatile zoom options. They are always a popular choice for portrait and street photography, with the focal length of the lens being the key decider in what application it is most useful for.įuji has proven to be masters of the prime lens since they made their first Mirrorless camera, our favourite options from them can be found below. They are also home to faster maximum apertures, which makes them the kings of low-light photography. Prime lenses only provide you with one focal length to use, so if you need a tighter or looser crop you need to move around a little, or a lot! The upside is their simplified designs equate to a higher level of image sharpness and quality in a more affordable package.
