First images from the Fuji 56mm f/1.2

Nathan Elson has published a stunning set of images taken with a pre production model of Fuji’s new 56mm f/1.2, and also a behind the scenes video of the shoot.

Uniquities Fashion Shoot & BTS w/ the Fuji 56mm 1.2

The Fuji 56mm f/1.2 (85mm equivalent) has quite possibly been the most anticipated lens for portrait photographers using the X system, and now that it is finally here, I can honestly say that it is beautiful.

Sharpness – It’s a Fuji prime lens, if you’ve used any of their primes, you already know they are sharp as hell. If you haven’t, well, they are sharp as hell.

I got to see these images at CES, and was told they were basically out of camera JPEGs – impressive.
