XF70-300mmF4-5.6 R LM OIS WR makes it easy to take super telephoto photography with you on your greatest adventures and create images that convey the true excitement and awe of the experience.

All this ensures you’re always ready to make images, whether it’s the undergrowth beneath your feet, or a tree on a distant horizon. This much ability often requires a trade-off in size, but XF70-300mmF4-5.6 R LM OIS WR’s 17 elements in 12 groups, including two ED elements, are housed within a highly portable body that measures just 5.2in (132.5mm) in length and weighs 1.3lb (580g). With a dust- and moisture-resistant construction and the ability to operate in temperatures as low as 14°F (-10°C), this lens makes the perfect companion, wherever your next adventure takes you.Top comment"Nice lens...Nice lens, it’s a bit heavy and a little bit difficult to make the lens extend but nice lense...Great Telephoto Lens...Really nice lens for Fujifilm X cameras.
