Description
Used Fujifilm GF 110mm f/2 R LM WR Lens
The Fujifilm GF 110mm f/2 R LM WR is widely regarded as the “crown jewel” of the GFX medium format system. This short telephoto prime offers an 87mm full-frame equivalent focal length, making it the definitive choice for portrait, fashion, and commercial photographers. By choosing a pre-owned unit, professionals can access world-class medium format optics—capable of resolving well over 100 megapixels—at a significantly more accessible price point. Its combination of a fast f/2 aperture and the large GFX sensor creates a “three-dimensional” rendering and subject isolation that is simply unattainable on smaller sensor formats.
Exceptional Optical Rendering and “The Medium Format Look”
The GF 110mm f/2 is engineered with 14 elements in 9 groups, including four Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements to virtually eliminate chromatic aberration and color fringing. Even when shot wide open at f/2, the lens delivers edge-to-edge sharpness that remains consistent across the entire focus range. The 9-blade rounded diaphragm produces a signature “creamy” bokeh with smooth transitions between the tack-sharp focal plane and the out-of-focus background. This creates the coveted “medium format look,” characterized by a calm, painterly aesthetic and a deep sense of image scale.
Professional Build and Linear Motor Performance
Built to withstand the rigors of professional location work, the lens features a robust, weather-sealed construction with nine seals protecting it from dust, moisture, and temperatures as low as -10°C. The “LM” in its name signifies the inclusion of a powerful Linear Motor, which provides fast, near-silent, and highly accurate autofocus. This is particularly critical for portraiture, where the razor-thin depth of field at f/2 requires absolute precision to lock onto a subject’s eye. The physical aperture ring (R) offers tactile, 1/3 EV click stops and a “Command” position for those who prefer to control exposure via the camera body.
Used Condition & Inspection Checklist
When purchasing a used GF 110mm f/2, particular attention is paid to the mechanical and optical integrity of this high-precision instrument. A typical high-quality used unit will show minimal signs of use on the rubberized focus ring or the metal barrel.
-
Glass Integrity: Front and rear elements are inspected for scratches, cleaning marks, or internal dust that could affect contrast.
-
Aperture Ring: Checked for crisp, positive clicks and a smooth transition to the “C” (Command) and “A” (Auto) positions.
-
Focus Motor: The linear motor is tested for smooth, hunting-free operation throughout the focus range (0.9m to infinity).
-
Mount: The brass G-mount is verified for a secure, light-tight connection with the camera body.
