Yes, still available.

Thanks, I am considering investing more in my X-Pro system. But not sure about this lens. Will be researching it. Up until now I only considered XF lenses from Fuji and they don't go to ultra-wide angle except for that 14mm which on a 35 mm full frame system would be about 21mm. I want more but also I would like something with minimal distortion so I can at least have a level horizon in my shots.

Perry,


This lens produces a fish-eye image......probably not what you are looking for.
It would be difficult to get a level horizon.
Of course, that could be easily done in post-production.

Yeah I think I will stick with the XF glass for now. At least that will give me the coverage I really want in these tight spaces I roam.
