Anyone that buys this for JUST landscape use has far more money than sense. Plenty of more flexible options that can get you a shot at 400mm equivalent.

Any lens can take a picture of a perched bird. Any lens can capture a still cityscape. Fuji is entering into the realm of moving wildlife and sports with a lens like this. If any GFX can adequately grab and hold focus on such things through AF-C burst shooting, I have sincere doubts.


They already have the algorithms as the software to the camera OS is common between X and GFX, all the need is a lens with good motors and the bandwidth and CPU to move the data. I'm not planning on upgrading right now but I am interested to see how far they've come. I think beefing up the GFX is a goal as I've heard them mention it but I think they might be targeting sports but will be interesting to see if it can focus on BiF. The current fps will much less than smaller formats though.
