EARLY FUJIINON MK ADOPTER, STATURE FILMS, TAKES DELIVERY OF FIRST MK50-135mm IN NORTH AMERICA
Combined Focal Range and Performance of Earlier Model MK Zooms PromptSplit Decision from Independent Production House
Wayne, N.J., July 24, 2017 – The Optical Devices Division of FUJIFILM has announced the first North American customer of its recently released FUJINON MK50-135mm T2.9 zoom. Toronto-based Stature Films, best known for its commercial and documentary production, was an early adopter of the first in the MK Series – the MK18-55mm – purchasing two shortly after the lens’ introduction last February. Stature Films now boasts having the first MK50-135mm in North America.
“We bought two MK18-55’s as soon as we heard about them,” said Andrew Sorlie, Creative Director, Stature Films. “Immediately our previous DSLR lenses started collecting dust. We couldn’t be happier with the 18-55’s performance. We love the richness they bring to our images, and a huge plus is the fact that they don’t breathe. So, when we heard the MK50’s were available, we didn’t hesitate for a second. Given the combined range of 18-135mm and their performance, we knew we’d be able to cover everything we need – wide angles, tight close ups, two-shots – with ease and style. And with just two lenses. We can’t wait to get out in the field and use this new glass on our next project.” Read More »
