A telephoto zoom designed for use in trying conditions, the FUJIFILM XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR Lens Kitis a weather-sealed lens spanning the popular 76-213mm equivalent focal length range and featuring a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture. Built for FUJIFILM X-mount mirrorless digital cameras, this fast zoom further distinguishes itself with a sophisticated design, highly effective optical image stabilization system, and a Triple Linear Motor AF system for refined focusing performance.

In regards to the optical design, this lens incorporates five extra-low dispersion elements and one Super ED element, which reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing for increased clarity and color accuracy. Additionally, a Nano-GI coating has also been applied to elements to alter the refractive index between elements, to minimize surface reflections, and to prevent lens flare and ghosting. Additionally a rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when working with selective focus techniques.

Flexible telephoto zoom is designed for APS-C-format Fujifilm X-mount mirrorless cameras and offers a 76-213mm equivalent focal length range.

Constant f/2.8 maximum aperture offers consistent performance throughout the zoom range and excels when working in difficult lighting conditions.

Five extra-low dispersion elements and one Super ED element are used to greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce high clarity and color fidelity throughout the zoom range.

Nano-GI (Gradient Index) coating has been applied to lens elements and alters the refractive index between the glass and air in order to better suppress lens flare and ghosting for diagonal incident light.

An HT-EBC (High Transmittance Electron Beam Coating) coating has been applied to the entire surface of each element for controlling ghosting and flare for greater contrast and color accuracy.

A Triple Linear Motor autofocus system delivers smooth, near-silent performance that is especially beneficial to video applications and when working in noise-sensitive areas.

Complemented by an enhanced gyro sensor and unique series of algorithms, the optical stabilization system minimizes the appearance of camera shake to enable sharper imaging when working with longer focal lengths or slower shutter speeds.

The lens body incorporates 20 distinct weather seals to protect against dust and moisture, and to enable worry-free use in inclement conditions and freezing temperatures as low as 14°F.

Rounded seven-blade diaphragm contribute to a pleasing out-of-focus quality to benefit the use of selective focus and shallow depth of field techniques.

A tripod collar is included for well-balanced mounting and shooting when working from a tripod or monopod.

Compatible with optional XF 1.4x TC WR and XF 2x TC WR teleconverters.

A: There have been no reports of this lens producing any noise when the OIS is turned off.

Q: 7. This lens seems to get rave reviews online but in this forum it's really getting trashed. Heavy, poor bokeh, hissing sounds, burns through batteries, etc. For virtually the same price I can get a 56 f/1.2 and a 55-200. Should I?

A: First, may I suggest that you discount 95% of what you read in any forum? Most of what is posted is posted either by disgruntled people, trolls, or people who have been given equipment by manufacturers. Now, to respond to this nonsense: Yes, the lens is heavy compared to other Fuji X lenses - of course it is: it's an f 2.8 equivalent of the 35mm standard 70-200, in this case 75 to 210. However, it is smaller and lighter than the comparable top of the line Nikon and Canon zooms. If you want a lighter lens, get a kit lens. If you want quality, this is the lens to get. I am principally a prime shooter, but I have a love this lens: It is fast focusing, the image stabilization is nothing short of spectacular - I can hand hold it at a 15th, and sometimes at 1/4 second, racked out to 210mm; it is sharp and contrasty, comparing in image quality to the best of the Fuji primes; it is build to last. Poor bokeh? I haven't noticed. Hissing sounds? Haven't heard them. Burns through batteries? I haven't noticed that. But, if batter consumption is an issue, turn off the IS. But who goes out shooting without extra batteries? All I can tell you is that in a week I am taking this lens to Haiti for it's third trip, and I wouldn't go without it.

Q: 8. I want to use this on an XH-1. Is there any benefit to OIS when you have IBIS?

A: The body and the lens will work in tandem to offer the best stabilization, typically the ibis will do most of the work.

Q: 9. Does this lens extend in physical length throughout the zoom process or does the lens remain the same physical length throughout the zoom process?

A: It maintains the same external length throughout the zoom range.

Q: 10. Advice for a Pelican hard case to fit this lens only?

A: Sorry, don't use a case, it's in my backpack when not in use. I do use the following: MindShift Gear Ultralight Camera Cover 30
