DPRTV released their Fujinon GF30mm f/3.5 R WR Review recorded on the GFX100 with the GF30mm. You can watch it above or read the summary below:

  • About 24mm equivalent
  • The camera is running FW 2.0
  • Very compact 510g 1/4 the weight of the Noct
  • 58mm filter thread
  • Weather sealed
  • Chunky Aperture
  • Two-step phase makes it easier to understand where your hand is
  • No real chromatic aberration and LoCA is well controlled
  • 32cm close focus
  • Lots of ghosting
  • Can even show reflections off the sensor which isn’t the lenses fault but distracting
  • Adequate AF performance
  • Not the greatest Bokeh
  • Very sharp lens especially wide open even to the corners
  • At f/5.6 everything is sharp
  • Excellent lens at f/5.6
  • No nasty surprises
  • Can resolve 102MP without issue
  • Would balance nicely on the GFX50R
  • Latest firmware update added lots of video features
  • GF30mm has very little breathing and this entire episode was shot on this lens
  • Great compact wide lens for GFX, but you might want to get the 32-64mm instead
  • GF30mm is a little better optically than the GF32-64mm
