Fuji Zoom Camera Lens

Fuji Zoom Camera Lens

From compact cameras to DSLRs, Fuji cameras are designed to meet the needs of the keen enthusiast and the working professional photographer alike.

Fuji X series retro-styled compact cameras are characterised by advanced controls. At the higher end of the range they also can, like Fuji DSLRs, take different X mount lenses. This allows the creative photographer more choice of zoom lenses to achieve the image results he or she is looking for, from medium zooms that can be put to daily use to very powerful zooms designed for action and nature photography.

A choice of Fuji zoom camera lenses

The Fujifilm XF 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR lens offers a useful range of focal lengths, from reasonably wide to a powerful telephoto . It is in fact equivalent to a 27-206mm lens on a 35mm camera, or full frame dSLR. 18mm gives non distorted wide shots in landscapes while 135mm will bring distant objects a lot closer.

This lens features Fuji's version of image stabilisation and so Fuji claim that sharp hand-held photos can taken at shutter speeds much, much slower than normal, for example, 1/8 sec, which would be all but impossible to hold steady without a tripod support.

For those needing something with a wider range, the Fujifilm XC 50-230mm f/4.5-6.7 OIS II lens is a good choice. The equivalent of a focal length range of 76-350mm on 35mm cameras or full frame DSLRs, it's ideal for portrait work or getting close to distant subjects.

It also features image stabilisation, which is very useful when working at high magnification where any camera shake is otherwise made very noticeable.

A good all-round Fuji camera is the Fuji XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR, the equivalent of 24-84mm on a 35mm film camera, or full frame DSLR. This gives useful wide angle for landscapes or tight shooting situations, while having a good telephoto for portrait work where it's more comfortable to be at a slight distance from the subject.

A powerful telephoto

For those looking to get extremely close to a subject from a long distance, then the Fujinon XF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR lens is ideal. Giving the equivalent of 52-609mm on a 35mm film camera or full frame dSLR, this lens is designed for demanding sports and wildlife photographers and so is weather sealed against the elements. It also features image stabilisation.
