Fujifilm Fujinon GF35-70mm F4.5-5.6 WR

The GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 WR covers the most frequently used focal length range, from 35mm at wide angle to 70mm standard (equivalent to 28mm-55mm in 35mm format), producing superior images in a wide variety of situations. It is the most compact and lightest of the GF zooms to offer excellent portability. The highly portable form factor will expand the scope of applications of GFX camera systems, including the FUJIFILM GFX50S II digital mirrorless camera.

The new GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 WR lens has a focal length range of 35mm to 70mm (equivalent to 28mm-55mm in 35mm format) and high resolution capabilities despite being the most compact and the lightest of the GF zoom lenses, weighing around 390g and measuring 96.4mm (wide angle end). The retractable barrel structure, which stores the lens barrel compactly, reduces the length to 73.9mm when fully folded for increased portability. It is said to reduce physical load even when used as a bypass lens, allowing for casual handheld shooting for snapshots, landscape photography and portraits. The lens can also take a close-up photo of a subject approximately 10 inches from the front of the lens to suit a wide range of shooting situations such as photographing a meal on a table. The fast, quiet and highly precise AF system achieves focus on a targeted subject smoothly to capture every photo opportunity. The lens has a dust and moisture resistant structure and can operate in temperatures as low as -10 ° C, allowing users to continue filming in light rain or a dusty location.

1. Product features

(1) Advanced versatility that covers the most frequently used focal lengths to provide superior images in a wide variety of situations
The GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 WR covers the most frequently used focal lengths from 35mm wide angle to standard 70mm (equivalent to 28mm-55mm in 35mm format) to meet a wide range of situations including snapshots, landscapes and portraits.

It allows close-up shooting of a subject approximately 25cm from the front of the lens. It takes advantage of wide-angle framing to capture the main subject close-up against a wide expanse of the background, as well as the standard angle of view which provides a natural perspective.

The GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 WR consists of 11 elements, including one aspherical element and two ED elements, in nine groups to well control spherical and chromatic aberrations for high resolution capabilities. The design provides an accurate description of a small subject in the background, even when shot at a wide angle.

(2) The most compact and lightest zoom lens of the GF zoom lenses
The GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 WR is optically engineered to balance image quality with portability to achieve the most compact and lightest GF zoom lenses, weighing approximately 390g and measuring 96.4mm (end wide angle) with filter thread size 62mm. The retractable barrel structure, which stores the lens barrel compactly, reduces the length to 73.9mm when fully folded for increased portability. Even when mounted on the FUJIFILM GFX50S II or FUJIFILM GFX100S, the combined weight is less than 1300g, which reduces the physical load even when used as a bypass lens to suit a riding style. casual shooting.

(3) Fast, quiet and highly accurate AF and rugged design for advanced mobility
The lens uses the Inner Focus system, in which compact and lightweight focusing elements are driven by a stepper motor. When paired with the phase detection AF of the FUJIFILM GFX100S, the lens can autofocus in as fast as 0.13 seconds * 3, ensuring that the main subject is captured. The lens also supports face / eye detection AF modes of digital cameras, capturing a momentary change in facial expressions, making it the perfect choice for portraits involving subject movement.

The low operating noise while focusing makes it suitable not only for still photos but also for video recording.
The lens is weatherproof in nine places, making it resistant to dust and moisture and capable of operating in temperatures as low as -10 ° C. It allows users to capture a defining moment even in difficult conditions with light rain or dust.
