The mount is tough as nails, and we can't wait to see the next XF lens.

Of course the three lenses are already fairly versatile by themselves, minus a long zoom solution, but we'll have to wait and see what the future has in store for this mount. There's talk of an upcoming adapter that will add compatibility with Leica M-mount lenses, but so far all we've seen are third-party products. The color scheme is a perfect match and included metal lens hoods are a nice touch.įujifilm's new X-mount is making its debut with the X-Pro1, and so far only the three aforementioned "XF" lenses are available. This automatic setting, plus a similar one on the shutter dial, eliminates the need for a mode dial: simply automate whichever variables you prefer.Īll three lenses are very sturdy and, as you may have guessed, design is totally consistent with the body since they released at the same time. After the narrowest setting, the "A" position returns aperture control to automatic. The barrel is marked for full-stop intervals, though third-stops are possible too. Excellent tactile feedback means operating the aperture is fun and precise. The aperture rings, on the other hand, are very satisfying.

The focus rings aren't mechanically 1:1, leaving you at the mercy of a moderately precise electronic manual focus interface. We were lucky enough to shoot with all of them.Įach barrel is designed with manual rings for both focus and aperture. Fujifilm is also marketing a 60mm f/2.4 macro or portrait lens and a 18mm f/2.0 wide angle lens. The X-Pro1 has no included kit lens, though we suppose the 35mm f/1.4 is the most "standard" of the three.
