Our review of the Fujinon / Fujifilm XF 50mm f/1 R WR

Every once in a while, manufacturers produce something that is more like a tech statement rather than a product that they expect to sell in volumes. For Fujifilm the Fujinon XF 50mm f/1 R WR does certainly fall into this category – more so for an APS-C system. If you require lenses this fast for

Our review of the Fujinon XF 200mm f/2 R LM OIS WR

There'll be several more reviews based on long-buried test data in the coming weeks.

Our review of the Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/4 S feels almost like doing time travel. It was the first Nikkor released in Z-mount back in 2018. And yes, we are late with this one. A colleague had the test data in storage for years actually, but life got in the way as it sometimes happens.

A little while ago, we already tested the Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.2 LAB FE in both Nikon Z and Sony E-mount – with impressive results. The original version of the lens – which is still available -uses a rather unusual aperture ring handling. The ring is unmarked and turns infinitely, and you can’t...
