It would be great to see longer focal lengths, like an 85mm or 100mm on the X7. I love the Olympus 45mm(90mm FF equiv) telephoto on the X5s to get long fast sweeping shots, not to mention the f/1.8 aperture.
There are two tech challenges to creating longer focal length lenses: keeping the same 2.8 f-stop with a longer focal length (why fast telephotos are usually heavy with lots of glass) and stabilizing the lens with a narrower field of view. As it is, the 50mm DL lens has a 35mm equivalent focal length of 77mm in wide view and 85mm in narrow view. That will give you a moderate telephoto perspective, which you can always increase by cropping into the frame (6K>4K, for example).
I expect that there will be further long or zoom lens choices available, but the constraints are weight (=flight time) and gimbal stability. |
