Superfast, super sharp and exceptionally tough, the FUJINON XF50mmF1.0 R WR is a revolutionary lens in the X Series lineup. With a maximum aperture of F1.0, it’s the fastest interchangeable lens Fujifilm has ever produced and can deliver incredibly shallow focus or amazing edge-to-edge sharpness thanks to its high-quality elements and large diameter design. All this comes in a weather-sealed and highly portable body, so there are no limits to creativity.
With an equivalent of 76mm in the 35mm film format, portrait, wedding and lifestyle photographers can enjoy its beautifully smooth bokeh for people and still life images, with the F1.0 maximum aperture allowing an unprecedented shallow depth-of-field and unique levels of subject separation. Meanwhile, street and documentary photographers benefit from its huge light-gathering power, letting them carry on shooting even when the moon or candles are the only sources of light.
When working with such shallow focus, accurate AF is vital. The XF50mmF1.0 uses a dedicated DC autofocus motor and, allied with X Series cameras’ Face/Eye Detection AF modes, it’s easy to achieve critical focus even when shooting at the lens’ minimum focusing distance. And when precision manual focus is required, such as in video or low-light astrophotography, the XF50mmF1.0 has a focus ring with 120° rotation for enhanced control.
