Offering a broad field of view within a compact form factor, the FUJIFILM GF 30mm f/3.5 R WR Lensis a svelte wide-angle prime lens for the G-mount GFX medium format camera system. A sophisticated optical design incorporates a series of low dispersion and aspherical elements, which help to realize a high degree of clarity, color accuracy, and sharpness, along with low distortion for a distinctly realistic look. The focusing group within the optical layout is also physically small, which promotes quick focusing operation to suit working with moving subjects. Physically, the lens sports a dust-, freeze-, and weather-resistant construction for use in inclement conditions and a manual aperture ring is featured for intuitive, tactile adjustment over exposure settings.

FUJIFILM G Mount    24mm (35mm Equivalent)    Aperture Range: f/3.5 to f/32    Two Extra-Low Dispersion Elements    Two Aspherical Elements    Dust- and Weather-Sealed Construction    Command Position on Aperture Ring    Rounded Nine-Blade Diaphragm

Wide-angle prime lens offers a 24mm equivalent focal length to realize a broad field of view for working with a variety of subjects.

Modest f/3.5 maximum aperture helps to maintain a portable form factor while also being suitable for working in available lighting conditions and controlling depth of field.

Two extra-low dispersion elements reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing throughout the aperture and focusing ranges for notable clarity and color fidelity.

Two aspherical elements control distortion and spherical aberrations in order to achieve high sharpness and accurate rendering.

Compact focusing group promotes quick and responsive autofocus performance.

Physical aperture ring allows for intuitive adjustment over exposure settings and incorporates a C (Command) position to permit camera-based aperture setting.

Dust- and weather-sealed physical construction enables working in harsh climates and temperatures as low as 14°F.

Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I understand that the filter thread is 105. The specs say via adapter. Is the adapter included? also what filter is recommended?

A: The FUJIFILM GF 30mm f/5.6 T/S Lens (FUJIFILM G) includes the adapter. The filter you use depends on the subject. If you need to cut reflections, get the Sigma 105mm WR (Water Repellent) Circular Polarizer Filter, BH #SICPWR105.

Q: 2. Are the tilt & shift function parallel or perpendicular to each other? Is is possible to change this easily?

A: The tilt and shift controls on the FUJIFILM GF 30mm f/5.6 T/S Lens can be positioned next to each other or at 90 degrees from each other.

Q: 3. Does the gf 30mm lens require slim 58mm filters or will normal thickness filters work without vignetting?

A: The FUJIFILM GF 30mm f/3.5 R WR Lens can work with normal filters. It does not need slim filters specifically.

Q: 4. What is the aperture equivalent of a 35 mm system compared to f/3.5 of this lens?

A: The aperture of the FUJIFILM GF 50mm f/3.5 R LM WR is the same as for any 50mm f/3.5 lens--it's a ratio of focal length to effective aperture diameter, so there is no difference between different formats, only different focal lengths.

Q: 5. Which country was this lens made?

A: The FUJIFILM GF 55mm f/1.7R WR Lens (FUJIFILM G) is made in Fujifilm's manufacturing facility in Japan.

Q: 6. Choices re Use of a cpl filter? 62mm? Can lens hood still be used? Or 43mm screwed into lens hood?

A: The FUJIFILM GF 50mm f/3.5 R LM WR Len works with CPL Filters that are 62mm thread. If the CPL has a 62mm front thread you can use the hood.

Q: 7. does the lens come with a hood ?

A: You do receive the lens hood in the box.

Q: 8. Choice re cpl filter? A 62mm - will lens hood still work? Or a 43mm screwed into the lens hood?

A: The FUJIFILM GF 50mm f/3.5 R LM WR Lens uses a 62mm filter thread. And you can add that size filter to the lens. The hood that the lens comes with can screw into a filter that has that has a front thread. but you might get some vignette when using it with a filter. This is is some good polarizing filter options, https://bhpho.to/3CTCVqU

Q: 9. Does this lens extend upon focusing or is it fixed with internal focusing?

A: This lens does not extend as it's an internal focus prime lens.

Q: 10. what is the focal length of the lens when shifted to the max? the specs says +/- 15mm, does it mean it becomes a GF 15mm lens?

A: The FUJIFILM GF 30mm f/5.6 T/S Lens (FUJIFILM G) is a fixed focal length lens so the focal length stays the same. The +/- 15mm indicates maximum shift along the axis.
