Fujifilm Launches “FUJINON Lens GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR”

FUJIFILM Corporation announces the launch of “FUJINON Lens GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR” (hereinafter “GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR”) as a new addition to “GF lens” lineup for “GFX Series” of mirrorless digital cameras equipped with a large-format sensor*1 approximately 1.7 times larger than the 35mm format. This lens will be released from late July 2026 onward. “FUJINON GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR” Mounted on the filmmaking camera “FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA 55” “GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR” is the second power zoom lens*2 in “GF lens” lineup, featuring a focal length of 19-35mm (equivalent to 15-28mm in the 35mm format). Inheriting the operability and design of the cinema zoom lens “Premista Series”*3, which is highly acclaimed in many video production settings, the lens structure and DC motor optimized for power zoom achieve a lightweight body of approximately 2.1kg. When used with the filmmaking camera “FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA 55,” “GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR” supports both high-quality and efficient filmmaking workflows. In recent years, video production sites have increasingly demanded both labor-saving efficiency and high image quality. Compared with the previously announced “GF32-90mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR,” “GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR” covers a wider angle of view, enabling dynamic visual expression ranging from expansive landscapes to compositions that emphasize depth and subject presence. Together, the two lenses provide seamless coverage from ultra-wide-angle to standard focal lengths. In addition, both lenses share identical external dimensions, allowing common accessories to be used and improving operational efficiency, particularly in small-crew productions. “GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR” achieves high resolution comparable to that of a prime lens, despite being a zoom lens, by minimizing optical aberrations. Combined with “GFX ETERNA 55,” it maximizes the camera system’s excellent gradation and rendering capabilities. The lens maintains a bright T3.5 aperture throughout the entire zoom range, enabling precise exposure control. Furthermore, it delivers consistent color reproduction and tonal characteristics with “GF32-90mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR,” simplifying color matching and post-production workflows. Used together with “GFX ETERNA 55” and “GF32-90mmT3.5 P3.5 PZ OIS WR,” “GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR” establishes a highly efficient production style requiring minimal equipment and crew resources, significantly expanding creative flexibility and opening new possibilities for filmmaking. *1 Image sensor with a diagonal length of 54.8mm (43.8mm W x 32.9mm H), approximately 1.7 times the area of the 35mm format sensor. *2 Power zoom control is available via both the camera body and the lens on "GFX ETERNA 55". On "GFX100 II", power zoom control is supported only via the lens. *3 The “Premista Series” is a lineup of zoom lenses for cinema cameras equipped with large-format sensors, enabling high-quality video production. Wide-angle, standard, and telephoto types are available. Main Features of “FUJINON Lens GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR” (1) Constant T3.5 power zoom lens for video production Features a focal length range of 19-35mm (equivalent to 15-28mm in the 35mm format), covering ultra-wide-angle to wide-angle perspectives. When paired with “GFX ETERNA 55”, electronic zoom operation can be controlled from the camera body. Adopts a sophisticated optical construction of 23 elements in 15 groups, including four ED lenses and three aspherical lenses. By maximizing the characteristics of each lens and arranging them optimally, aberrations are effectively suppressed. This enables the lens to maintain a bright T3.5 aperture throughout the zoom range while achieving high resolution and compact size. Lens construction: 23 elements in 15 groups, including four ED lenses and three aspherical lenses (2) Cinema lens operability and lightweight design reduce the burden of long shooting sessions In addition to thin-wall lens processing technology cultivated over years of cinema lens manufacturing, the adoption of a rear focus system enables a compact and lightweight design. Despite being a power zoom lens compatible with large-format sensors, it achieves a total length of approximately 222mm and weight of approximately 2.1kg. The lens is equipped with three independent manual rings for focus, zoom, and iris (aperture), all adopting the same 0.8M (module) gear pitch*4 as previous FUJINON cinema lenses. Standard accessories essential for video production, such as follow focus and lens motors, can be used. The focus ring features a wide rotation angle of 200 degrees, enabling precise focusing with smooth torque even in scenes with shallow depth of field. Enables control of focus, zoom, and iris via both the camera body and the multi-function dial on the supplied handle of GFX ETERNA 55. In addition, it supports constant-speed focus and zoom settings on GFX ETERNA 55, facilitating efficient one-person operation. Designed with identical exterior dimensions to the GF32-90mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR, enabling the use of shared accessories for seamless rig setups. In addition, the operability of zoom and focus functions is standardized between the two lenses. *4 The distance between the teeth on the gear engraved on the operation ring (3) Outstanding rendering performance backed by advanced optical design technology Nano GI coating technology is used to suppress flare and ghosting caused by light entering the lens from oblique angles, reducing reflection loss and improving light transmittance for clear rendering performance. By optimizing the internal structure of the lens barrel and the position of optical elements, sudden changes in angle of view (breathing) during focusing are suppressed, enhancing compositional stability. A 13-blade aperture is adopted to achieve a nearly circular aperture shape. This maintains the roundness of bokeh even when slightly stopped down, allowing for beautiful bokeh effects using point light sources in dim indoor or outdoor settings. (4) Powerful image stabilization and fast, smooth, high-precision AF Improves image stabilization performance by enhancing motion-sensing accuracy and optimizing the stabilization mechanism, enabling dynamic imagery that fully leverages the distinctive perspective of a wide-angle lens in handheld shooting, including when using a gimbal. By directly driving the motors at high speed in response to the operation of the focus, zoom, and iris rings, both responsiveness to ring operation and indicator position accuracy are achieved at a high level.
