Kameraten Adds Fujinon PL Mount Zoom to Rental Inventory
posted:
After testing the model HK4.7x18 (18-85mm, T2) supplied by Fujinon Fujifilm's representative in Sweden Hofmann Teknik AB and performed by key personnel in the production, it became clear that they wanted to rent this zoom.
The test was conducted in close cooperation with the rental company Kameraten in Stockholm which at an early stage showed interest in this zoom series in connection with a road tour that Hofmann Teknik AB arranged this spring.
The choice fell on the zoom as it matches the set of Arri Master Primes already used on this production. Fujinon has continued to challenge the ultimate in performance on the market and with this series, they have achieved this goal!

The 18-85mm T2.0 is one of Fujinon's new family of PL Series Zooms, designed for the latest digital and film PL mount cameras.
Fujinon's PL Series Zooms offer focal ranges covering 14.5 to 400mm including: 14.5-45mm T2.0; 18-85mm T2.0; 24-180mm T2.6; 75-400mm T2.8-T3.9. The PL Series feature the fastest T speeds available in a family of zooms, with unprecedented color matched 4k optical performance. All four zooms are of similar in size and weight. Consistent gear placement and (136mm) front barrel diameters enable quick and efficient lens changes.So it is with great joy and pride that we congratulate Kameraten to the purchase of the Fujinon HK4.7x18 PL zoom lens, which goes directly into production.
Kameraten thus becomes the first rental company in Europe to purchase a Fujinon lens in this series of high-end PL zooms.
