What's missing from the GFX lens catalog?

[Giampaolo Masserano]

Dear friends

I ask you all: in your opinion, which lenses are missing in the GFX catalogue?

In my opinion, for example, a telephoto lens is missing, such as a 400mm f4 or a 500mm f 5.6 or f8.

In fact, I find it strange that FUJI stops at the GFX250...

What do you think about this?

[Giampaolo Masserano]

I got it right!!!

 

As I asked some time ago, Fuji is working on a GFX 500 f5.6!

That is, EXACTLY what was missing from the road map of objectives.

Maybe a standard portrait lens, around 100 mm and 2,8 would do good. The 80mm seems a bit short for that

For me, a mid tele zoom 75-150, lightweight good for travel and that complements the 32-64 or the 35-70 many people have. Right now I have to use a Pentax 645 80-160 still good but almost 3 lbs with adapter, 9" long and manual focus. The 100-200 is too heavy and there's big gap btw 64 and 100 mm.

I feel as though Fuji now needs to focus on making the lenses not necessarily faster, but a little more streamlined. Look at Leica SL lenses or the new Hasselblad V series. They have a distinctive look of quality and like eye candy.

just my 2 cents but in any case newer lighter lenses are always welcomed

1:1 macro in the standard range would be nice.

I think I have the gift of foresight... 📸

The GF500 f5.6 is a reality!

And at an affordable price, too...

My issue is with weight and the GFX telephoto lenses. I wish they would have a 300+1.4 TC like the fab Nikon AF-S Nikkor 300mm 1:4E PF ED VR. Every time I use that on a D850 I am amazed at over 400mm and so light in comparison to any of the Fuji GF telephoto lenses. The weight is why I sold my GFX gear.
