Comparando com a XF 35mm f/1.4, vemos que são objetivas totalmente diferentes, com propostas diferentes, como se pode depreender do comunicado da própria Fuji:
“…With its unmatched optical quality and ability to resolve details up to 40 megapixels, XF33mmF1.4 R LM WR is poised to deliver vibrant, true-to-life colors, minimal optical aberrations, and outstanding detail in those rare moments where passion meets perfection.
(…)
XF33mmF1.4RLMWR may be the first X Mount lens to have exactly the same equivalent field of view as a 50mm lens, but it certainly won’ t be the last one to perfectly blend optical engineering with cutting edge technology. Ready to document events and scenes as they unfold, XF33mmF1.4 R LM WR is equipped with a powerfully accurate linear motor to ensure that images are always in focus and creativity is never suppressed. Fast, near silent, and unerringly accurate, this lens effortlessly performs to keep any image maker in the moment, no matter how brief it is.
(…)
Minimal focus breathing, precise manual focus , and wonderfully blurred backgrounds make X F33mmF1.4 R LM W R a perfect choice for videographers who need wide apertures for low-light situations or to create separation between subject and background. Manual focusing is easily controlled, thanks to a mechanism that delivers near-perfect precision down to a minimum object distance of 30cm.
(…)
15 elements in 10 groups -including two aspherical and three ED elements - XF33mmF1.4 R LMWR is engineered to provide optimum quality and unparalleled color accuracy,with minimal coma and chromatic aberration.This ensures unmatched resolution and fresh, vibrant color.…”
Entendo que a original XF 35mm deverá continuar em produção após o lançamento da XF 33mm.

Com a XF 18mm f/1.4, já disponível e a futura XF 56mm “Mk II” que será lançada no próximo ano, a Fuji está preparando a nova linha de objetivas que serão utilizadas com a nova geração de câmeras que começará a chegar também em 2022 (X-H2; X-T5; X-Pro 4; X-E5…) :snack:
