The Widest Angle Lens for Expansive Landscapes
The XF 8mm f/3.5 R WR Lens is a prime lens with a focal length of 8mm, equivalent to 12mm in the 35mm film format. It offers the widest angle among Fujifilm's XF lens lineup, covering a viewing angle of 121 degrees diagonally and 112 degrees horizontally. This lens captures a much wider field of view than human eyes, making it perfect for shooting expansive landscapes and subjects with high information volume.
Advanced Image-Resolving Performance
This lens showcases advanced image-resolving performance with its composition of 12 lens elements in nine groups. It includes three aspherical elements and two ED elements, effectively minimizing lens distortion, spherical aberration, and astigmatism. As a result, the lens can capture subjects that fill the wide-angle frame with exceptional detail and accuracy.
Swift Autofocus and Clear Image Resolution
The XF 8mm f/3.5 R WR Lens combines a short moving distance for the focusing lens and the Inner Focus system, resulting in an impressively fast autofocus speed of 0.02 seconds. This swift autofocus is particularly advantageous for capturing dynamic action photography using the unique ultra-wide-angle perspective. The lens's wider depth-of-field allows for stopping down the aperture, enabling pan-focusing. Alongside its advanced image-resolving performance, the lens ensures edge-to-edge clarity, capturing all information in the frame with precision.
Compact and Lightweight Design for Everyday Photography
This lens achieves both appropriate aberration correction and a compact, lightweight design through effective positioning of its aspherical and ED elements. Contrary to the typical large form factor of ultra-wide-angle lenses, it measures just 52.8mm in length and weighs 215g, making it perfect for everyday walkaround use. By placing distortion-controlling aspherical elements at the front, the lens retains a versatile 62mm filter thread size, allowing for landscape photography and easy use of various filters.
All-Weather Durability
The XF 8mm f/3.5 R WR Lens is built to withstand challenging conditions, being dust- and weather-resistant with the ability to operate in temperatures as low as -10℃. With weather-sealing at 10 locations and a front lens element coated with fluorine, it repels water and resists stains. This ensures peace of mind for photographers, allowing them to capture photos in various shooting conditions, including light rain, dusty environments, and during travel.
