Fujifilm XF 35mm f/2 Lens Product Image Leaked
First product image of the XF 35mm F2 lens mounted on a X-T1.
From Digicame-info :
- XF35mm F2 estimated retail price of R WR is ¥ 48,000 (tax included). The color is black and silver.
- Teleconverter XF1.4X estimated retail price of TC WR is ¥ 59,000 (tax included).
These price tags usually become approximately the same as USD. Around $400 for XF 35mm f/2 and $500 for 1.4x Tele-Converter makes sense for US markets.
If becomes real, the XF 35mm f/2 sure will have a very cheap price overall when even compared to the good XF 27mm F/2.8 model and as expected it will cost less than the current XF 35mm F1.4 R lens.
The 1.4x Teleconverter can be attached to other Fujinon X mount lenses to extend the focal length by 1.4 times.
1.4x Teleconverter can work with the following lenses : XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR, XF 120mm F/2.8 R Macro (will be released in July, 2016) and XF 100-400mm (will be released in March, 2016).
