Fujifilm GF 45mm f/2.8 R WR

Name: GF 45mm f/2.8 R WR
Brand: Fujifilm
Availability: InStock

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.

📝 How suitability scores are calculated GearScore™ genre scores are calculated from this camera's verified specifications — autofocus, sensor, weight, weather sealing and more — weighted by what matters for each type of photography. Where a spec sheet misses something (e.g. a manual-focus rangefinder for street), we apply a documented editorial adjustment. Scores are not based on customer reviews. See our full methodology →
