Nearly a year after its initial launch, 7Artisans has announced that its AF 27mm F2.8 lens is coming to Fujifilm X-mount, joining the existing Sony E-mount and Nikon Z-mount iterations. The XF version will offer the same features and design as the existing model, albeit with very slight size differences to accommodate the different mounts.
The 27mm focal length provides a roughly 41mm equivalent field of view. It is quite compact and lightweight, measuring 42mm (1.7″) long. 7Artisans didn’t provide a weight for the X-mount version, but the E-mount model weighs only 144g (5.1oz) and the X-mount likely isn’t much different.
The lens supports autofocus with a stepper motor and internal focus design. The optical design comprises six elements in five groups, though it doesn’t use any aspherical, ED or other special glass. It also only features six aperture blades. Like the the Z-mount model, the X-mount lens accepts 39mm filters. There is also a USB port for firmware updates.
The 7Artisans AF 27mm F2.8 XF lens is available for purchase today at a recommended price of $129.
