YONGNUO has unveiled the YN50mm F1.8X DA DSM PRO autofocus lens with X-mount, marking its debut lens for Fujifilm X cameras. This addition to the PRO line features a compact and lightweight design, along with an STM stepping motor that ensures swift and silent focusing.
The YN50mm lens boasts an aperture range of F/1.8 to F/16, with a focal length of 50mm (equivalent to 75mm for Fujifilm X APS-C cameras). The lens excels with a minimum focus distance of 45cm and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:6.67.
With an optical configuration of 11 elements arranged in 8 groups, incorporating 6 special optical elements, this lens presents a distinctive optical design, distinct from Yongnuo’s previous offerings. Autofocus is facilitated by a DSM (Digital Stepping Motor) stepping motor, while the aperture adopts 9 rounded blades.
An OLED display adorns the lens, serving to exhibit critical parameters. The lens itself spans Ø68 × 85 mm in dimensions and weighs 387 g. The inclusion of a 58mm front thread enables the attachment of filters.
Enhancing functionality, the lens is equipped with an aperture control ring, an autofocus mode switch, and a display for prominent shooting parameters. The lens’s autofocus is powered by a stepping motor, though optical image stabilization is not present.
YONGNUO proudly declares compatibility with Fujifilm X-H2S, X-H2, X-Pro3, X-T5, X-T4, X-T3, X-S20, X-S10, X-T30 II, X-T200, X-E4, and other Fujifilm X cameras equipped with APS-C format sensors.
