Description — Fujifilm 90mm f/8
The FUJINON SW 90mm f/8 is a large format prime lens with a wide-angle perspective, built for technical cameras using a Lens Board mount. With a fixed 90mm focal length and a maximum aperture of f/8, it is intended for deliberate, controlled shooting workflows typical of large format photography. The lens is strictly manual focus, placing full control in the photographer's hands — fitting for the ground-glass focusing process inherent to this format.
A 67mm filter thread on the front element makes it straightforward to add optical filters to the system. At 490 grams, the lens is manageable relative to other large format optics. There is no image stabilization, consistent with tripod-based large format shooting.
This lens is categorized as a wide-angle option within the large format system, suitable for subjects that benefit from a broader field of view at the 90mm focal length.
