Allan Bell Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 The new FUJINON XF90mmF2 R LM WR lens will be out late July. I was interested because I thought it was going to have a Macro 1:1 facility but it from specification it does not seem to be so. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeRay Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Top of my want list. 135mm equivalent and my favourite focal length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Allan, when this lens was first announced, I hoped it would be a macro, also. But it was shortly revealed on the Fuji-X forum that it would not be. There is a macro announced, I can't remember the length, but more than 100mm. So one is coming, but it will be awhile before it ships. The macro and the 100-400 will be on my list, for sure. Look at thr roadmap. Betty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You lose infinity focus then though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had wondered whether getting the extension tubes would be worthwhile. Now I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
