Optical Performance

The Fujifilm GF35-70mm F4.5-5.6 WR Lens stands as a highly versatile standard-length zoom with a 28 - 55mm focal length (35mm equiv.) range. With a maximum 0.28x magnification and 35cm minimum focus, this lens is extremely adept across the board. As a high-powered GF-Mount lens, the Fujifilm GF35-70mm F4.5-5.6 WR guarantees stunning imagery with clearly defined detail, clarity, and colour accuracy.

Fast-Action AF with Minimal Focus Breathing

When it comes to standard-length zoom lenses, speed and accuracy are amongst the most integral factors to optimal image consistency across a range of creative disciplines. By supporting in-camera Face/Eye Detection AF modes, you can achieve accurate and lightning-quick AF in a fast as 0.13 seconds in complete silence. This is incredibly useful for portrait artists, where a momentary change in the subject’s facial expression can make an image.

The Fujifilm GF35-70mm F4.5-5.6 WR Lens further utilises a lightning-fast AF system (STM, 0.17sec with the GFX100/100S) with minimal focus breathing. This is a term that describes the change in focal length that occurs as a clear result of adjusting the focusing distance. Focus breathing causes notable changes in both angle of view and magnification, which are especially prevalent when using prime and zoom lenses. By actively reducing this, the GF35-70mm F4.5-5.6 WR has the capacity to capture high-end video content with an emphasis on uniformity, clarity, and detail.

Featherweight Fujifilm Lens

Weighing in at 440g, the GF35-70mm F4.5-5.6 WR adopts an incredibly portable, compact, and adventure-ready design. Its small profile is well-balanced and tactile in hand, whilst being well-suited to the extensive Fujifilm GFX camera range. One of the key selling points of this Fujifilm GF35-70mm F4.5-5.6 WR Lens is that it weighs less than half of the GF 32-64mm F4 R LM WR. This is a significant advantage for on-the-go image-creators, events photographers, and freelance videographers looking for a lighter GF-Mount zoom lens. Even when mounted on the Fujifilm GFX100S or GFX50S II, the combined weight comes to only about 1.3kg.

Boasting the second shortest minimum working distance of 35cm among interchangeable lenses for the GFX Series, the Fujifilm GF35-70mm F4.5-5.6 WR affords close-up shooting with a subject approximately 25cm from the front-most element of the lens.
