Great to see they'll be for Fujifilm X mount! There is a lack of super affordable AF lenses for that mount as everything is Fuji branded

I loved how those two women just didn’t look like they give a flying fuck and basically didn’t know shit about the lenses.

Well, on IBC it is quite common. Can check last year famous interview about lenses :-)

Btw, one of them stood and just walked out during interview :-) It is masked via editing.

Usually NAB and CES are exhibitions with most serious representatives preparations.

Also AES part of NAB NY is good.

$280 for a lens is still a tad pricey for a cheapo "nifty fifty", the Nikon 35mm f1.8G DX or 50mm f1.8G FX are both far cheaper.

But yes, its existence definitely helps make the X Mount system a more viable option! The Fuji lens are nice, but a little pricey if you just looking for a cheap way to get into a new system.
