Zhong Yi Optics announced the release of the PITTURA 30mm f/2.4, a new native wide-angle prime lens engineered specifically for modern medium format systems, including Fujifilm GFX and Hasselblad XCD mounts. Offering a versatile 24mm full-frame focal length equivalent, the PITTURA 30mm f/2.4 combines a fast aperture, ultra-close focusing capabilities, and a highly portable build designed to meet the demands of high-resolution digital sensors.

The Zhong Yi Optics PITTURA 30mm f/2.4 is available at a retail price of $499 USD. It can be ordered through authorized global distributors and directly via the official Zhong Yi Optics online store.

Despite its fast optical design, the PITTURA 30mm f/2.4 is housed in a durable, precision-machined all-metal barrel, the lens weighs approximately 550g and maintains a compact physical footprint (Ø 81mm x 80mm for GFX; Ø 73mm x 84mm for XCD). Its light profile makes it an ideal choice for street, landscape, travel, and documentary photographers seeking medium format rendering without the bulk of traditional medium format glass.
