Fujifilm needs to update the rest of their lenses that don't resolve to match the new 40mp sensor. Given their limited R&D and manufacturing capacity, I'm wondering what will be prioritized. Will they work on new cameras with the new sensor or update more lenses?

Don't believe that Fujifilm list of lenses that do (and my omission, supposedly don't) work all on 40MP sensor cameras.

Where did Fuji say some lenses don’t work with the 40MP sensor?

Absolutely nowhere!

It is pretty much a nonsense list. It includes lenses that are not necessarily remarkably sharp while leaving off lenses (like the excellent 14mm f/2.8 and the 35mm f/1.4) that are.

I have the XT5 and I've test several of these not-on-the-list lenses (the 35mm f/1.4 and the old 27mm f/2.8) and they very much DO provide excellent resolution performance on the new sensor.

I am pretty sure that the "list" came out of the marketing department...
