A Review of the Fujifilm XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR Lens

The 70-200mm f/2.8 lens is the workhorse of choice for a huge range of professionals, suitable for portraits, weddings, events, and much more. For Fujifilm shooters, there is the XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR. This great video review takes a look at the lens and the sort of performance and image quality you can except from it in practice. 

Coming to you from Christopher Frost, this excellent video review takes a look at the Fujifilm XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR lens. The X Series equivalent of a 70-200mm f/2.8 zoom, the 50-140mm f/2.8 comes with a wide range of impressive features, including:

  • Five extra-low dispersion elements and one Super ED element for less chromatic aberrations and better clarity
  • Nano-GI (Gradient Index) coating for less lens flares and ghosting and deeper contrast
  • HT-EBC (High Transmittance Electron Beam Coating) coating for deeper contrast
  • Triple Linear autofocus motor with very quiet performance
  • Enhanced gyro sensor for robust optical stabilization
  • Weather-sealing for dust and moisture protection
  • Rounded seven-blade diaphragm for smoother bokeh

Altogether, the 50-140mm f/2.8 looks like quite a versatile performer for a lot of applications and needs. Check out the video above for Frost's full thoughts on the lens.
