This precision piece of kit is capable of creating excellent images in a variety of situations. From wildlife to portraits to walk-around city fun, this lens comes through beautifully with quick, accurate focus and amazing OIS stabilization capabilities for still subjects. I am getting crisp hand-held images at 135mm and 1/8th of a second! Through the zoom range the image quality ever so slightly degrades as you get closer to 200mm, but even at this longest focal length, it still holds up very nicely. I was amazed at the detail in a shot of an Owl that I pretty severely cropped. At 100mm and f4 it works beautifully as a portrait lens with subject isolation smooth background blur. Considering the price, build quality, size and image quality, it is hard to go wrong with this lens.

I am used to prime lens’ and this thing has got me stoked on shooting in depth landscape or even portrait at its shortest focal length. The images are sharp, it’s fast focusing, and gives me wonderful range. The only thing I had to get used to is while adjusting the zoom I sometimes hit the Aperture ring and change that as well. User error tho. Can’t be may the price for this lens at all!

I read some mixed reviews of this lens so I was a bit skeptical. Well, after some serious shooting, I am sure this lens will remain on my camera as my go to lens. I use a similar canon lens on my 5Dlll and it suits most of my shooting needs. I am not disappointed with this lens on my Fuji XTl.

Despite the maximum f/stop of this lens, it delivers crisp images regardless of focal length. If you can spring for the 55-140 for the constant f/2.8 aperture, by all means do so, but if your funds are tight and you want a bit more zoom,this lens is an excellent alternative. You won’t be disappointed.

As a travel photographer weight and size are important to me. While this lens isn't nearly as fast as the 50-140 2.8, it also isn't nearly as heavy or expensive, and all while having 60mm better reach! The sharpness is excellent for a lens of this kind, and OIS allows for longer shutter speeds if you're not shooting action. Action shots can be obtained with this lens as long as you have decent light and/or aren't afraid to push your ISO levels a bit. Overall I highly recommend this lens for outdoor/travel zoom purposes.

Fantastic, just fantastic. Its built just like the kit lens, the Fujifilm XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4, which is one of my favorites. More expensive but, in my opinion, better to get this than the XC version if you can.

An excellent lens choice that covers short to long telephoto range and is reasonably fast. It is compact, light, well suited for travel, won't wear you out. It has image stabilization as well. I would recommend it to any Fujifilm X series camera users.

This is yet another phenomenal lens from Fujinon. The range, and incredible sharpness throughout the extensive telephoto range, is remarkable. It's extremely well-made, compact, and provides enough zoom to get those coveted sports or wildlife shots.
