Renowned for its remarkable speed, the FUJIFILM GF 80mm f/1.7 R WR stands out as a short portrait-length prime lens designed for the GFX mirrorless medium format system. Offering a focal length equivalent to 63mm, this lens strikes a balance between a slightly narrower perspective and an exceptionally bright maximum aperture, facilitating precise depth of field control and outstanding performance in low-light conditions.

The versatile focal length of 63mm provides a wider field of view compared to traditional portrait lenses, allowing for greater context and compositional flexibility while still retaining the ability to isolate subjects effectively. The wide f/1.7 aperture further enhances creative possibilities, offering extensive control over depth of field and ensuring exceptional results in dimly lit environments.

Ideal for various portrait scenarios, including group shots and tighter mid-length perspectives, the GF 80mm f/1.7 R WR excels in capturing captivating images with stunning subject-background separation. Its nine rounded diaphragm blades contribute to a beautifully smooth bokeh quality, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal of the photographs.

Crafted with precision, the lens features two Super ED elements to minimize fringing and chromatic aberrations, resulting in superb color accuracy and clarity. Additionally, an aspherical element enhances sharpness and reduces distortion, ensuring lifelike rendering across different focusing distances. Focusing accuracy is paramount, especially with a fast lens like this. The GF 80mm f/1.7 R WR incorporates a powerful DC motor and a high-precision GMR sensor, enabling quick and precise autofocus performance to capture fleeting moments with ease.

Despite its large aperture, the lens maintains a compact and lightweight design, measuring just 3.9 inches in length and weighing 1.75 pounds. This portability allows for comfortable handheld shooting, granting photographers greater freedom and flexibility in their creative endeavors. Constructed to withstand challenging conditions, the lens features dust- and weather-sealed construction, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments and temperatures as low as 14°F. Furthermore, the front element is coated with fluorine for easy cleaning and to repel dust, dirt, and moisture.

Equipped with a physical aperture ring, the lens enables intuitive adjustment of exposure settings, with a dedicated Command position for camera-based aperture control, enhancing the overall shooting experience for photographers.
