Fujifilm Announces New X-T10 and 90mm f2 Lens

Today, Fujifilm is announcing two new additions to their X series lineup: the 90mm f2 and the rumored X-T10. First up, we’re most excited about the company’s new 90mm f2 Super EBC XF that has weather sealing incorporated into the body. The lens has seven aperture blades, 11 elements in 8 groups, can focus as close as 24 inches and on the 1.5x crop camera bodies gives you a true 135mm field of view with an equivalent full frame depth of field of f3 when shooting wide open.

You’ll probably never want to stop this lens down anyway, though you’ll surely need to so that you can get your subject in focus.

Then there is the X-T10, which is a stripped down version of the X-T1 and targeted at the enthusiast. Prices and tech specs are all after the jump.
