[41][42] Toshihisa Iida, the General Manager of Fujifilm's Optical Device and Electronic Imaging Products Division, explained on April 14, 2020, that Fuji followed plans on opening the X-mount up to third-party lens manufacturers.

[43] The Touit line of compact lenses from Carl Zeiss AG is purposely designed for APS-C like camera bodies.

They are nearly identical to their predecessors, which were previously released for Canon EF-M mount, L-mount, Micro Four Thirds and Sony E-mount cameras.

[41] Manual lenses usually provide no Exif data transfer, no autofocus, no automatic aperture control, and no lens-based image stabilizer.

Voigtländer lenses provide Exif data transfer, automatic focus magnification, distance scale and image stabilization information, and parallax compensation for supported X-mount cameras.
