With a native G-mount, the GF19-35mmT3.5 provides the widest angle of view available in the GF format. It is claimed to provide exceptional optical performance in a compact, lightweight design.
FUJIFILM states that the new GF19-35mm T3.5 works well with FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA 55, and in tandem with the FUJINON GF32-90mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR. Both lenses share identical exterior dimensions, enabling the use of shared accessories. The operability of the zoom and focus functions is also standardized between the two lenses.
The GF19-35mm T3.5 features an ultra-wide 19-35mm focal range (equivalent to 15-28mm in 35mm film format) with purpose-driven optics that FUJIFILM claims provide consistent geometric rendering and minimal focus breathing.
The lens can cover the Open Gate recording of GFX ETERNA 55, GF19-35mm T3.5, and it weighs in at approx. 4.6 lbs / 2.1 kg) and has dimensions of 8.74 in / 22.2cm.
FUJIFILM claims that built-in image stabilization is achieved through improved shake sensing accuracy and optimized stabilization mechanism design. By directly driving the motors at high speed in response to focus, zoom, and aperture (iris) ring operations, the lens is said to achieve both excellent responsiveness and high accuracy of indicator position.
The optical design of the lens consists of 23 lens elements in 15 groups, including four extra-low dispersion (ED) elements and three aspherical elements. There is also a 13-blade iris. FUJIFILM claims that this effectively suppresses aberrations and allows for a constant T3.5 aperture and consistent optical performance throughout the zoom range.
The lens features a Nano GI coating that is said to suppress flare and ghosting caused by light entering at oblique angles, reducing reflection loss and improving light transmission.
By optimally positioning proprietary optical design and the internal lens barrel components, the lens suppresses sudden angle-of-view changes during focusing (breathing), enhancing framing stability while focusing.
The lens is equipped with a three-ring system that allows independent manual control of focus, iris, and zoom, all operating rings use the same 0.8M gear pitch as the existing FUJINON cinema lenses. This standard gear pitch enables compatibility with essential filmmaking accessories such as follow focus systems and lens motors. The focus ring features a wide 200-degree rotation angle.
