Fujifilm GF 45mm f/2.8 R WR

The GF 45mm f/2.8 R WR is one of the original GFX launch lenses — a versatile standard prime equivalent to 36mm on full-frame. Its f/2.8 maximum aperture provides a useful light advantage over the f/3.5 and f/4 G-mount primes, and the compact build makes it one of the most carry-friendly lenses in the GFX lineup. Excellent sharpness from edge to edge, weather sealing, and an aperture ring make it a natural first lens for GFX owners.

GearFrame's Take

A compact and capable standard prime — the most affordable way into the GFX prime lineup with a useful f/2.8 aperture.
