Fuji 33mm f1.4 R LM WR

Fuji 33mm F1.4 lens

The XF33mmF1.4 is a highly versatile standard prime lens with a focal length equivalent to 50mm in the 35mm film format, making it an essential next-generation lens for all X-mount users. The X Mount format, since its original introduction in 2012, has undergone continuous development of new products and devices in pursuit of advanced image quality. This lens has been designed to support even higher resolution camera sensors that will be developed in the future, offering exceptional image sharpness and advanced image resolution performance even when fully open. It also offers impressive mobility and is equipped with a quiet, fast and high-precision AF system driven by a linear motor, enabling sharp focus in stills and smooth focusing in video recording. The robust dust and moisture resistant design comes with the characteristic portability of X Mount, weighing approximately 360g and a length of 73.5mm and a filter thread of 58mm. The XF33mmF1.4 is a new generation large aperture standard prime designed with superior image resolution, mobility and ruggedness to drive the evolution of the X-Series over the next decade and beyond, setting a new benchmark for interchangeable X-mount lenses.

2.Product Features

(1) Exceptional image sharpness even at maximum aperture

・ The lens consists of 15 lens elements, including two aspherical elements and three ED elements, in 10 groups to effectively minimize chromatic aberration and spherical aberration, delivering edge-to-edge sharpness even when fully open. The focus group in the middle includes two ED elements and an aspherical element to reduce the fluctuation of aberration caused by the movements of the focus elements, ensuring superior image quality throughout the focus range from foreground to infinity.

・ With a maximum aperture of F1.4, the lens allows users to produce high-quality images with minimal camera shake and digital noise, even in low-light conditions, such as dimly lit interiors and nightscapes. At F1.4, the lens provides a shallow depth of field to render the background out of focus for creamy bokeh, adding clear contrast and three-dimensional definitions to the sharply focused main subject in the focal plane. The comic aberration is also well controlled to capture small light sources such as round dots, avoiding color hues in the bokeh background. The use of nine aperture blades ensures near-round bokeh even around the maximum aperture.

 (2) Standard focal length and wide shooting range

The XF33mmF1.4 offers the most popular and standard focal length of 33mm (equivalent to 50mm in the 35mm film format). The focal length provides the closest angle of view to that of the human eye, creating a natural-looking perspective. It covers a wide range of shooting situations, from portraits to snapshots and landscape photography, presenting them in versatile styles with the use of correct shooting techniques. The wide shooting range is also complemented by its advanced close-up capability with a minimum working distance of just 30cm and a maximum magnification of 0.15x.

(3) Quiet, fast and high-precision AF

• The XF33mmF1.4's AF system is driven by a linear motor thanks to its lightweight design attributable to the use of smaller focus elements, resulting in quiet, fast and high-precision AF. AF is achieved with the Inner Focus system, which keeps the range of motion small for the focus lens group while precisely controlling the amount of focus required within the range. Focusing is achieved in as little as 0.04 seconds, ensuring that users don't miss a decisive photo opportunity. * 1

• The use of the linear motor for fast and accurate autofocus means that focus can be maintained accurately even in AF-C mode, mainly used in video recording. In addition, the lens is optically designed to minimize changes in angle of view, caused by focus breathing, making it an ideal choice for full-blown video production.

(4) Advanced mobility based on compact, lightweight and robust construction

• The XF33mmF1.4 is compact and lightweight, weighing approximately 360g and measuring 73.5mm long with a filter thread size of 58mm. The outer diameter of the focus lens group is kept small to accommodate a linear motor in the space created for a slim and sleek design.

• The lens barrel is weather-sealed in 11 locations to make it dust and weather resistant and can be used in temperatures as low as -10°C, accommodating snapshots in the rain or astrophotography on cold winter nights for enhanced performance in all shooting conditions.

• The focus ring has an improved control resolution solution for greater control, especially during manual focusing at shallow depth of field. The gear pitch within the focus ring is carefully designed for advanced motion detection capability, allowing for linear focusing that responds precisely to the subtlest movements of the fingertips.

• Position A (auto) lock offers reliable operation, locking the aperture ring in place to prevent any unintentional adjustments during filming.

• The shape of the flute on the focus ring is carefully designed to make it easy to remove dirt stuck in the grooves.
