Fujinon discontinue production of XPan and some LF lenses

This is from month or two back, I somehow got it stuck as a draft and forgot about it. Anyway, the following large format lenses are now out of production, so whatever is left in the supply chain is it if you want to buy new:

  • Fujinon-SW 90mm f/8 (shipment ended August 2006)
  • Fujinon-T 300mm f/8 (shipment ended in August 2006)
  • Fujinon-CMW 300mm f/5.6 (shipment ended in December 2006)
  • Fujinon-SWD 65mm f/5.6 (shipment ended in December 2006)

and all of the Hasselblad XPan/Fuji TX lenses stopped shipping in November 2006:

  • 30mm f/5.6
  • 45mm f/4
  • 90mmm f/4

If you’re interested in Fujinon large format lenses, check out Thalmann’s Unofficial Fujinon Lenses page. No historical information seems to be available from the manufacturer, and this is far and away the best resource I’ve seen.
