Overview

Make movie magic with MKX lenses

Designed specifically for shooting cinema-quality video, Fujifilm’s MKX lenses, available in two of the most frequently used focal lengths, achieve a constant T2.9 aperture across the entire zoom range, enabling a shallow depth of field as well as a beautiful bokeh effect. Compatible with Fujifilm X Mount cameras.

Key Features:

  • Compact and lightweight 
  • Control lens breathing (change of angle of view during focusing which achieves smooth focusing) 
  • Suppress focus shift while zooming, which eliminates the need to re-focus after zooming in or out

Additional Features:

  • Optical construction of 22 elements in 17 groups(Includes 2 extra low dispersion elements and 6 super extra low dispersion elements)
  • Achieves a constant T2.9*1 aperture across the entire zoom range, enabling a shallow depth of field as well as a beautiful bokeh effect and eliminating the need to readjust lighting
  • Compact and lightweight body achieves advanced optical performance by incorporating a short flange focal distance of X Mount into optical design to the maximum extent. This accommodates shooting with a limited number of people
  • Electrical contact to communicate with FUJIFILM X Series camera corrects the distortion and the color/brightness shading, and achieves various colour expressions with Film Simulation modes
  • The front focusing group of lens elements and the zooming group of lens elements are driven independently from one another to suppress focus shift while zooming, which eliminates the need to refocus after zooming in or out so there is no time lag as seen in an electrical control system
  • Front inner-focusing system controls lens breathing (change of angle of view during focusing which achieves smooth focusing)
  • The focus ring features a rotation of a full 200 degrees to facilitate precise focusing even when shooting with a shallow depth-of-field where a high degree of precision is required
  • Features three fully manual rings to allow independent adjustment of focus, zoom and iris (aperture) for intuitive operations without time lag
  • Operation rings have a gear pitch of 0.8M, similar to other FUJINON cinema lenses, which allows the use of all standard third party accessories for video production, e.g. Follow Focus that enable accurate and smooth focusing
  • Iris supports seamless adjustment that is free of clicking for precise and silent exposure adjustment while preventing camera shake caused by the clicking
  • Gears for the three rings are positioned in the same place to eliminate repositioning accessories when switching lenses
  • Macro function allows shooting close-up (Minimum Object Distance of 0.38m -wide end) to broaden the range of scenes that can be covered with one lens
  • Accommodates 82mm filter size
  • Compatible with FUJIFILM X Mount cameras
