From the article it's optimized for Apple Silicon chips .

Thanks for your instructive post Truman Prevatt

That's true. The 50-140 is a very sharp lens, with nice bokey ... ... for a zoom

In general long telephoto lenses are corrected with ED, super ED, or fluorine glass and not with aspherical glass. I am not an optician, but from what I see from different manufacturers, most wide ...

To my eyes , the difference is only more contrast in the blurry background with the XF 33 mm. (leafs) Both lenses have a great rendering.

I can't agree more. Why as a fuji camera user, should I be limited to use only small lenses or cameras ?

The MTF curves are better For real test  : we have to wait

Yes in a white paper, Zeiss write this. But the new lens, will be able to bring much more details with a 40 mp sensor, than the previous version. For example the new 18 mm 1.4 break all the record ...

You forgot to mention, that the new one is sharper especially wide open.

Like all kind of tech there is pro and cons, but for me the X trans has two advantages : - less chroma noise - no moire. Moire should not be an issue with high density sensor, but some lenses are ...

it's a wise answer But we can expect at the price of a somewhat bigger lens, better IQ wide open. The new 18 mm F1.4 is oustanding and it should not be more difficult to produce a 35 mm rather than ...

If the new 33 F1.4 replacing the 35 mm F1.4 is as good as the Fuji XF 18 mm 1.4, I will buy one

center resolution is not everything . I have a viltrox 33 mm F1,4 : it compare well , with the Fuji XF 35 1,4 , and have a faster and silencious AF. But it has terrible purple fringing wide open, ...

Thanks for this review, it confirms many test, including the one from Optizone : This lens is the bast wide angle prime of the Fuji line optically wise. It seems like it's a new generation of prime ...

8K means, that the fuji sensor will be based on the rumored 43 mp BSI stacked sensor from Sony. Considering the resolving power of the new 18 mm F1.4 it make sense.

I don't have both lenses : just ordered the new one (except to receive it tomorrow) But in this comparison (time line : 11.50) the 18 mm wide open in the center is clearly sharper (even not wide ...

It would be great , to be able to freeze the subject with a button when you think that the eye AF has located the right spot : after doing that, it's the AI of the R4 who will track the subject. Ju ...

Yes I compared both IQ wize, it's a close match The fuji exibit less CA wide open, than the Viltrox At F5,6 both are excellent and it's impossible to tell The viltrox has the better AF (quiet and ...

Thanks for the test From what I see from your test  : wide open you have to stop down one time the EF to have equal sharpness in the center, and 3 times (3 stops) in the upper left The difference ...
