Along with the new FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA 55, Fujifilm has also released a new dedicated lens for the camera, the FUJINON GF 32-90mm T3.5 PZ OIS WR.
It's not exactly a name that trips off the tongue, but the FUJINON GF32-90mm T3.5 PZ OIS WR is the first FUJINON motorized power zoom lens for the GFX System, and is billed as offering serious filmmakers cinematic versatility and exceptional optical performance in a compact, lightweight design.
Covering a wide to standard focal range in a single lens, it offers a versatile focal range with great compositional flexibility, speeding up production by reducing the need to change lenses. Similar advantages come from the constant T3.5 aperture throughout the range, so once a scene is lit, users can zoom in and out without the need for exposure adjustments. Focus breathing is also tightly controlled, maintaining framing consistency and minimizing distractions for the audience.
Product Features
- This motorized zoom covers 32-90mm focal length (equivalent to 25-71mm in 35mm film format), from near wide-angle to standard.
- The lens consists of 25 lens elements in 19 groups including three extra-low dispersion (ED) lenses and three aspherical lenses, effectively suppressing aberrations, achieving a compact size while maintaining bright T3.5 and high resolution throughout the zoom range.
- Inheriting the operability and design of the widely praised FUJINON Premista Series zoom lenses for cinema cameras, it measures just about 8.7 inches (222 mm) in length and achieves a lightweight design at approximately 4.6 pounds (2.1 kg) by adopting an optical design and DC motor optimized for motorized power zoom.
- A 13-blade iris diaphragm achieves a nearly circular aperture shape for the first time in the GF Series lens lineup. This improves the roundness of bokeh even when slightly stopped down, allowing for beautiful background bokeh using point light sources in dim indoor and outdoor scenes.
- Equipped with a three-ring system that allows independent manual control of focus, zoom, and aperture (iris), all operating rings use the same 0.8M gear pitch as the existing FUJINON Cine lenses. This standard gear pitch enables compatibility with essential filmmaking accessories such as follow focus systems and lens motors.
- The focus ring features a wide 200-degree rotation angle, allowing precise focusing with smooth torque even in shallow depth-of-field scenes.
- Equipped with Nano GI coating to suppress flare and ghosting caused by light entering at oblique angles, reducing reflection loss and improving light transmission for clear, sharp images.
- Powerful image stabilization is achieved through improved shake sensing accuracy and optimized stabilization mechanism design. This is especially effective in the situations such as documentaries and run-and-gun4 style filming that require high mobility.
- By directly driving the motors at high speed in response to focus, zoom, and aperture (iris) ring operations, the lens achieves both excellent responsiveness and high accuracy of indicator position.
At the time of release, motorized power zoom control is supported only on the GFX ETERNA 55. Support for other GFX series mirrorless digital cameras will be added sequentially through firmware updates.
