View Full Version : Fujinon lens choice Bjørn Sørensen January 13th, 2008, 03:57 PM Has anyone compared Fujinon XS 17x5,5BRM against the Fujinon HSs 18x5,5 ?? Peter Newsom January 15th, 2008, 05:01 PM I haven't tried the 17x5.5, but my HSs18x5.5 is very good, and I'm glad I bought it. The price won't make that much difference in the long run, and HD is very revealing when it comes to optics. Dimitri Liaos March 3rd, 2008, 09:30 AM I own the XS17X5,5. Have never compared it to the 18, but have to say that I love the quality of my pictures Oleg Kalyan March 5th, 2008, 04:02 AM Is there any lens that has a constant aperture throughout the range? What is the widest aperture lens for this camera? THank you, I am new in this territory, shot mostly with 1/3 Canon, thinking of upgrading, please share some insight! John M. McCloskey March 5th, 2008, 10:22 AM Would anyone consider using this lens with XDHDCam. Just trying to make a decent choice with quality and $.

It may or may not look okay, but it won't be doing the camera any justice. -gb- Dimitri Liaos March 6th, 2008, 06:12 PM Would anyone consider using this lens with XDHDCam.

The 17X5,5 is a very fine lens and it surely works with the F350. Is it way more expensive there than the one in the link? John M. McCloskey March 13th, 2008, 02:45 PM Thanks, thats what I thought. Its just amazing how expensive an 18X or bigger with a extender is running for HD. This is the cheapest I have found. WOW. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/478884-REG/Fujinon_HS18X55BERM_HS18x5_5BERD_M_18x_XDCAM_HD.html Dimitri Liaos March 13th, 2008, 07:06 PM Thanks, thats what I thought.

My 17X5,5 at the end of the telephoto and standing on my Sachtler 18SB is so sensitive that if you blow on it you notice! If you don't need the extender then the prices are way down from 17K |
