Fujifilm has steadily increased its XF and GF lens portfolios in recent months, and image leaks suggest that each optical stable will soon welcome a new member. . Nokishita released several images of two new lenses, the Fujinon XF16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR and GF50mm f/3.5 R LM WR. Both lenses have already been included in Fujifilm's roadmaps for both lines, although little other information has been released to date. The XF16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR is a zoom lens designed for X-series cameras like the X-T30 and X-T3. Its name highlights several things, such as a constant f/4 aperture, weather resistance, and the presence of optical image stabilization, while the R in the name refers to an aperture ring, something that can be seen on the leaked images below.
