Zhong Yi Optics has announced the Pittura 30mm f/2.4, a manual focus prime lens designed to give Hasselblad XCD and Fujifilm GFX photographers an unusual combination of both fast aperture and a wide-angle. “Medium format wide-angle lenses can quickly become cumbersome, but the PITTURA 30mm f/2.4 strikes the ideal balance between solid durability and everyday usability.” The Pittura has another feature that Zhong Yi says is also uncommon: a relatively short focusing distance. Speaking of which, below is a set of sample images taken with the lens, courtesy of Zhong Yi Optics. The Zhong Yi Pittura 30mm f/2.4 is available directly from the manufacturer for either Hasselblad XCD mount or Fujifilm GF mount for $499.
