Description

• A versatile zoom lens for the Fujifilm X-series range of APS-C mirrorless cameras, offering an angle-of-view range equivalent to 27-206mm on full frame.
• Featuring a variable f/3.5-5.6 maximum aperture that provides decent exposure and depth of field control throughout the zoom range.
• Featuring an optical image stabilization system that provides up to 5 stops of shake compensation, or up to 6.5 stops when used with a camera that also has in-body stabilization.
• Featuring a weather-resistant structure that protects the lens from dust and moisture and allows it to operate in temperatures as low as -10°C (14°F).
• Featuring a linear motor that drives the autofocus system for fast and silent performance, as well as a manual focus ring for precise control.

Image Quality

• It delivers good image quality, with decent sharpness, contrast and color rendition in both 4K and HD modes.
• It has moderate levels of distortion, vignetting and chromatic aberration, which can be corrected in-camera or in post-processing.
• It produces smooth and natural bokeh, thanks to the f/3.5-5.6 aperture range and the seven-blade rounded diaphragm of the lens.
• It has fair resistance to flare and ghosting, which can be reduced by using the lens hood.

Build Quality

• It has a high standard of build quality, with a metal mount, high-grade plastic barrel and a non-rotating 67mm metal filter thread.
• It is relatively compact and lightweight, measuring 75.7mm x 97.8mm and weighing 490g (1.08 lb) with lens hood.
• It has a smooth and precise zoom ring and focus ring, as well as an aperture ring that can be de-clicked for video use.
• It has an ergonomic design, with a detachable lens hood that provides additional protection and shading.

Other Features

• It offers a close minimum focusing distance of 45cm (17.72 in) at wide end or 1.4m (55.12 in) at tele end with a maximum magnification of 0.27x (4K) or 0.36x (Full HD), making it suitable for close-up shots.
• It supports Fujifilm’s Lens Modulation Optimizer function that enhances detail and reduces diffraction in out-of-camera JPEG images, especially when shooting at small apertures.
• It is compatible with Fujifilm’s X-mount cameras that offer various creative features such as film simulations, advanced filters and custom settings.
