In a somewhat surprising move, Fujifilm has revealed the Fujinon XC 35mm f/2 – which, for those keeping count, is the manufacturer's third 35mm X-mount lens, behind the Fujinon XF 35mm f/1.4 R and Fujinon XF 35mm f/2 R WR. 

The Fujinon XC 35mm f/2 is set to launch day-and-date with the new Fujifilm XT200, and has no doubt been envisioned as an ideal low-price companion lens for the affordable new camera.
