PRESS RELEASE

Fujifilm releases a new roadmap for X-mount lenses

July 24, 2014

FUJIFILM Corporation (President: Shigehiro Nakajima) is pleased to release an updated roadmap for X-mount interchangeable lenses.

Following the June announcement of the XF18-135mm F3.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR weather-resistant lens, the next lens introduction will be the XF50-140mm F2.8 R OIS WR lens; the second weather-resistant lens designed to partner with the Fujifilm X-T1 camera.

A new addition to the developmental roadmap includes a large-diameter medium tele-photo prime lens; the XF90mm F2.0 R, planned for mid 2015.

Other updates to the developmental roadmap include the confirmation of the previously announced “Ultra-Wide Angle lens” as the XF16mm F1.4 R with a planned launch date of mid 2015. The planned launch of the XF16-55mm F2.8 WR lens is moved to Spring 2015 and the Super Tele-Photo Zoom lens to Winter 2015.

Highly regarded for their outstanding image quality, resolution and well-built bodies, the unique X-mount lens product family will span a range from super-wide angle to super-telephoto range lenses and a large-diameter lens with rich bokeh and high resolution.
