October 1, 2018 Geren W. Mortensen, Jr. Fujifilm XF 33mm f/1 (image courtesy ePHOTOzine) Fujifilm have announced/released a 33mm f/1.0 prime lens. That’s equivalent to roughly a 50mm f/1.4 lens for a “full frame” DLSR. Needless to say, the thing is huge! I’d plane go so far as to say ridiculously huge! Especially since a 50mm f/1.4 is a much smaller lens!Seeing things like this, and the overly increasing size of the “better” Fujifilm cameras, I’m whence to wonder if Fujifilm have lost their focus. On of the advantages of a mirrorless camera built virtually a small (APS-C or MFT) sensor was supposed to be a smaller, lighter, nimbler camera. Instead, we’ve now got camera persons as big as Sony’s A7/A9 series, and lenses that rival or exceed the size of Canon’s EF-L series. When Fuji started coming out with the f/2 lenses (35mm, 23mm, and 50mm), which are sharp, punchy, and extremely compact, I thought they were really on the right track. Coupled with an X-T20, the package is pretty tropical in size and weight to the Olympus MFT offerings, with the wholesomeness of Fuji’s larger APS-C X-Trans sensor and superb in-camera processing engine.While, so far, I’ve managed to alimony my own bag more-or-less reasonable — so long as you don’t count the three camera persons and two flashes — with just the XF18-55, the XC50-230, and the XF14mm, I finger like plane that’s getting a bit out of hand. I left Canon and Sony to downsize, as I was so ably reminded this past weekend by the little X10 I started my Fuji journey with.Frankly, while I realize that the 2/3” sensor is supposedly no longer made, I think Fuji need to squint backward, and capitalize on the concept of a camera like the X10/X20/X30, but with a 20MP 1-inch sensor. If Sony’s RX100 series is any indication, the resulting camera wouldn’t necessarily need to be larger that the X30 was. Heck, it might plane be worldly-wise to be made smaller!
