New TTartisan 50mm F0.95 Announced


The TTartisan 50mm F0.95 can now be found on Amazon.

  • APS-C Normal-length Lens: Normal-length prime is designed for use with Fuji X-mount mirrorless digital cameras, providing a 75mm equivalent focal length. It is well-suited to everyday shooting with subjects including portraiture, street, nightscape, landscape, and reportage.
  • Aperture F/0.95: A fast f/0.95 maximum aperture suits working in low-light conditions and also offers great control over the depth of field. Its optical system consists of 8 elements in 6 groups. A 10-blade diaphragm contributes a pleasing out-of-focus quality when working with selective focus techniques.
  • Compact and Vintage Outlook: Weighs about 411g, and the lens is so compact that gives you a very comfortable hand feeling. The silver dents in the lens barrel make the whole lens a more vintage look. The all-metal lens barrel features an engraved depth of field and focuses scales. Additionally, a metal lens mount also offers increased durability between the lens and camera.
  • Friendly Design: Unlike the traditional cap type lens cap, the TTartisan 50mm F0.95 features a creative screw-on metal lens cap, it is quite convenient to mount the lens cap tight with only one spin. The aperture ring is stepped with the right amount of resistance and click, marking on full stops from F/0.95 to F/16.
  • Multi-layer Coating: The multi-layer coating has been applied to individual elements and reduces flare and ghosting in order to produce greater contrast and colour accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions.

Fujifilm Opens New Headquarters in Europe


Fujifilm opens new Headquarters of Fujifilm Europe and Fujifilm Deutschland
We have moved! As of today, 2 May 2022, you will find the Headquarters of Fujifilm Europe and Fujifilm Deutschland on our new premises at Balcke-Dürr-Allee 6, in 40882 Ratingen. Here we will move into three floors in the building “The Square” on the Schwarzbach-Quartier.

During the planning process, our Management attached great importance to an office concept that benefits our employees as well as their cooperation – modernly designed office space, various meeting rooms as well as places for casual exchange among colleagues therefore complement each other.

In addition to the new office space, the building will soon be home to various exhibition rooms for the multi-technology company’s different products and services. The company will also open its new European Fujifilm Open Innovation Hub (OIH) at the new Headquarters’ site. This OIH will be an exhibition as well as a place to create new solutions. The place will exhibit Fujifilm’s products, services and know-how, but also offer space to meet up with internal and external cooperation partners in order to work out new approaches.

The new building was also planned with sustainability in mind and therefore worked with the globally used LEED certificate for sustainable construction. We are also looking forward to innovative solutions such as the 20 charging points for electric cars – these should be installed and ready for use in the near future.

This approach goes hand in hand with 70% of Ratingen’s city area being forests, fields and meadows making the city be named “the green lounge” of the area between Rhineland and Ruhr region. (1)

The Management of FUJIFILM Europe GmbH attaches great importance to the health and safety of its employees. Although government has since relaxed the COVID restrictions, Fujifilm is taking care to comply with certain well-known COVID precautions while moving into the new building. In the coming weeks, the situation will be closely monitored and the code of behaviour will be adapted to fit the situation. Therefore, Management has decided to let the employees move into the new building bit by bit as of today, so that measures such as social distancing are guaranteed.

PhotoPlus is Now Create NYC


PhotoPlus which generally happens around the end of the years is now Create NYC powered by PhotoPlus. You can read the press release below:

PHOTOPLUS Embraces New Identity as Create NYC, Relocates to Brooklyn to Welcome Creator Community
After two years of in-person event cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic, PHOTOPLUS is proud to return this year as Create NYC Powered by PHOTOPLUS. To be held from September 29 to October 1, 2022, the three-day event leaves the Jacob Javits Convention Center for the Duggal Greenhouse in Brooklyn, NY.

The photography industry’s premier trade show morphs into a festival experience. Create NYC immerses attendees in anything and everything Image Culture. It celebrates all visual storytellers whose work crosses various platforms, expresses shared experiences, inspires dialogue for change, and blurs the lines between art and cultural relevance.

Create NYC puts education and experience first, featuring a main stage of dynamic speakers who will strike meaningful conversations about the impact of imagery on society. Additionally, the event will offer attendees the opportunity for intimate educational moments through creator walks, sessions, and lab-style workshops – all known as Creator Experiences led by engaging visual creatives, including photographers, filmmakers, editors, artists, and more.

Tickets for Create NYC will be available starting June 13. Unlike in previous years, ticket quantities will be limited.

“The decision to reimagine PHOTOPLUS into Create NYC was in response to demand from a rapidly growing emerging creator community,” said Create NYC Show Director Joseph Kowalsky. “The definition of an imaging professional and visual storyteller has broadened. Create NYC aims to be the home for all using imaging technology to create stories that trigger emotion and impact society.”

Silver NiSi 15mm f/4 Sunstar ASPH Now Available


The NiSi 15mm f/4 Sunstar ASPH was announced last year in Black and later in Silver, but the Silver edition has only begun to show up at places like B&H Photo and it looks like NiSi has been selling it directly through Amazon in low volume. It even looks like they might have had plans for a White copy of this lens as can be seen below in Kai’s video review, but at this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if it has been canceled due to supply chain constraints.
